Everyone:
If you completed a song using GarageBand during the last class, please verify that you have EXPORTED your MP3 and UPLOADED it to your Google Drive Account. You cannot recieve credit until you SHARE your song with hscribner@ucvare.org. Directions are below if you are having trouble. When you have finished the project, use the GRADING RUBRIC below to figure out your score on this project. Additional learning should include working on the QUESTION (Constructed Response) on your Google Classroom, completing the Music Lyric Project listed below, or use SOUNDATION.COM (Link Below) to create another unique song and EXPORT it as a .wav file for use later. Soundation.com has some different loops and is a free, online version similar to GarageBand! Have Fun With This Project!
Today we will continue looking at GarageBand! I will show you how to open the application and navigate around for the first few minutes of the class. You will then have the remainder of class to create a new song for yourself. You will be using part of this song for your IMovie Marquise Project. Make sure you figure out how to start a project, work with loops, save a project, and export it to your desktop. Refer to any of the videos and help items in yesterday's post!
Now that you have a basic idea how to navigate around the GarageBand application, please create a music track at least 25 seconds long for use in an IMovie project coming up. You need to use at least three different loops to create the song. I would suggest Percussion, Bass, and any other loop of your choice. It can be slow or fast and have any theme you like. Try to create it to reflect your personality or have a mood of some kind. It can be scary, funny, happy, sad, melodramatic, suspenseful, or just plain. When you are finished creating the music track you must SHARE it by EXPORTing it to DISK. Place it on your desktop as an MP3 file. Now you are ready to open your GDrive and UPLOAD the file online. Once you have finished the UPLOAD, please SHARE the MP3 file with me by hitting the SHARE button and entering my email address. You should also COPY the web address (Top Of The Share Box) and change the Permission for this file to ANYONE WITH LINK. You can now put a link to this file on your Tackk.com Website by adding a word or picture and applying a link. I will show everyone how to do this in class.
