UNDERSTANDING OWN RESPONSE TO BODY IMAGE Task 2.1

Identify feelings around own body image

How do you feel about your personal image ? do you like how you look and do you feel under pressure to look a certain way ? if yes where does the pressure come from

I feel that my body image is getting better and i need to still improve parts of me e.g my behaviour and my attitude. I think i look alright but i feel that i have to buy new clothes to look better because at the present for teenagers you have to try look better than each other. The pressure comes from the music and your friends because you want to look good for girls and your social media.

This is what most people expect people to wear at the present moment this costs about £60-£115 and then the trainers cost about £75-£120 and the only way for people our age to obtain these clothes is buy them and look after them till your next birthday or christmas thats huge amounts of pressure because you have to keep up with fashion and fashion doesn't always stay the same.

UNDERSTANDING OWN RESPONSE TO BODY IMAGE Task 1.2

1 Identify a group of people that we constantly see online or on  TV and talk about what they do. Do they present a positive image for young people to follow.

We constantly see footballers on TV and that gives us a image in ours heads that they are positive but in reality they are just impressive and good at showing their lives in a way that makes people think they want that but really it has taken them a long time to get were they are and probably had a lot of peoples help aswell.

SOUND AND AUDIO PRODUCTION

 0113

Today i was in the recording studio recording my tune 0113

I has to set up the equipment and had to make sure that all the health and safety was place so no food or drinks in the studio and i had to make sure all wires were safely out of the way we used logic pro to record the music

I wrote my bays on my phone to start with then finished them off and printed out a copy 

 It took a few takes to get it right but it sounded really good in the end using a SE2200 condenser mic for the best sound quality in the sound proofed audio booth

When i finished recording the vocals i had to mix it and add effects like reverb and compression to make it sound professional

this was a great day or me i learnt a lot about how to record and about how much work it takes i had to make sure that i follwed health and safety this meant being carefull with how loud it was in the studio and not staring at the screen for too long

what didn't go so well was having to do so many takes as i kept having to start again to make sure it was perfect

To improve my work i would make sure i know the words off by heart so i can concentrate on the performance in the booth
A copy of the recording is in the song writing folder on my desktop the video is called 0113

UNDERSTANDING OWN RESPONSE TO BODY IMAGE Task 1.3 30/6/17

2  when online, watching TV or listening to the news who is underrepresented and why ?
when answering this think about day to day life and the people we depend on

The Army is underrated because they fight and help save the country we live in but footballers get more money than them for kicking a ball in a net.

This is the what they do to protect their country  and stay ready and fit for service

Using Aural Skills in Music 4.2 16/6/17

Task 4.2

Listen to a range of music with contrasting styles from

Opera singing, soul singing, Pop music to Rap and talk about the differences in articulation and the importance of how words or notes are expressed and how this gives meaning to the song

Bugzy Malone fire in the booth debut

The lyrics in this tune are very intense this is because it is a real life story

his delivery is fast but very clear and you can understand every word the song is very dark and this shows in how his words are delivered he sounds angry and this comes across in the sound of his voice . the sound of his voice is very important to the song to make it believable.

Dr.Dre- I Need A Doctor ft. Eminem,Skylar Gray

The lyrics in this tune are upsetting because it tries to remind you of someone you might have lost or they left. Its slow when the chorus kicks in but the verses are fast because they're rap. Her singing calms the tune down but when Eminem raps it makes it sound like he's mad at Dre. The contrast between the singing and rapping is good because there 2 different things and they help the tune flow.

Nessun Dorma

The lyrics and the flow make you feel tired and drowsy when your listening this music is quite relaxing. It also makes me curious to know he is talking about because its a different language. Its reminds me of a song that would suit the movie titanic. His voice is powerful and they way he sings is what makes you feel his lyrics.
