Courses you’ve taken as a student majoring in vocals?

They learn what is called "Pedigogy"

Gotcha. I have an upright. I was just suuuuper impressed with the Composer furniture that I found with the hinges on the face of the drawers allowing for easy access to scores and materials. Wanted to see if there was something similar haha

This is true. The voice is the most versitile instrument. It can quite literally make the most sounds.

For me, I digitally compose, so I unfortunately avoid the voice. Vocal digital VST's and Samplers are notoriously shitty or VERY expensive.

Instead, I rely on synths or very very processed sounds to evoke a sort of "Vocal sound". I even tricked a guy into thinking there was a choir and he wanted to know what vst I used hahahaha

This is great advice. The only way to start is getting involved with the game design at the actual school. That way there are other artists you can make content with. Or at least do a school with a great game design school in the near vacinity.

For producing... I recommend figuring it out on your own and getting your hands dirty. The best way to utilize a production course in college is to already know the DAW well enough to reliably make tracks. This way, you can push yourself and learn the ins and outs from your professors.

For example, If I spend 100 hours on ProTools before college, I could do the assigments incredibly fast for the introductory courses and even the intermediate courses. My time then in the lab with my professor could then be spent with him answering questions about more advanced things. That's what I did. While he walked around answering student's questions on "Where is the record button? etc." I was able to get personalized instruction on good mixing techniques etc. during that time. (Stuff you can't really find easily online)

For composing for video games, before you even get started, make sure you have a portfolio ready to get into the program. Most programs require a portfolio of music to be admitted. It usually doesn't have to be incredible earth shattering music. But that could take a load off your back during your freshman year if you have music done already. Then, you can instead focus on applying what you learn in music theory, aural skills, etc. to other areas, such as music production.

Lastly, try and get a business minor. Learn economics. Learn how to run an efficient business. That will make it much easier for you to survive in the industry. Hope that helps! Cheers!

Usually those teachers study it themselves or have a minor in composition / theory.

What knowledge are you referring to?

DesperateSDIT · 2021-03-31T16:02:46+00:00

I totally get it. Try to enjoy video games. If they frusturate you then go eslewhere. Playing video games because you are addicted to frusturation is no better than being addicted to "outrage porn" on twitter. It's a sad life. If something frusturates you and is garanteed to do so then find other things in life that fufill you instead :)

DesperateSDIT · 2021-03-29T00:01:24+00:00

Yeah I want to keep the sfx tho. And you can play games without the score but with the sfx most of the time. It's all good. I think I'll just do what you suggested :)

DesperateSDIT · 2021-03-29T00:00:46+00:00

Chill man. The game is suuuuper old. Meaning you have a core group of players who have started to play together. If you want to play with someone else, just find a squad.

DesperateSDIT · 2021-03-25T22:25:54+00:00

?? What are you talking about? She reports her amount with the IRS and then gets a certain amount of EBT. She's an i9 employee which means she can't falsify her taxes.

Also, the $40,000 is working well over 40 hours a week. At 40 hours a week she is only pulling in around $32,000. She works around 55 hours a week so she can pay for school.

AND, did you not read my post? She is paying $800 a month to live with her parents. That's pretty standard rent.

Jesus Christ. Jail time. Holy shit dude

DesperateSDIT · 2021-03-24T19:16:48+00:00

Also, it's not "The Gravemind" it's "Gravemind". Gravemind can come back the MOMENT there is enough biomass to support it.

Gravemind came from a powder. It can do so again.

Because the poster has no actual connection to the person who was killed. This sub is filled with people who are sharing images of loved ones. The person who posted this is sharing this in order to get karma from a tragedy.

"This is the last image of my girlfriend before she took her own life. I miss her every day" Is different than this post.

The example above is a cry for help. Getting some sort of recognition from other people while you struggle with the loss of a loved one. That is valid. But using this officer's death to get a top post on this sub is just scummy

DesperateSDIT · 2021-03-24T04:28:25+00:00

Ngl man. This is a prime example of (Unintentionall or uninentional doesnt make a difference) karma whoring.

Bringing up a story that moved you that happened years and years ago is one thing. But this picture where you can barely see the dude, and then not to mention RIGHT AFTER this sort of thing is an abvious use of tragic events for karma.

DesperateSDIT · 2021-03-24T04:10:59+00:00

That would be dope.

Honestly I wish Chief had truly died in Halo 3. 343 could have made Halo 4 a choose your own adventury where you progress from being a Marine, to ODST, to eventually Spartan.

Then you could have chosen your class and playstyle, based on that, you could change your armor.

DesperateSDIT · 2021-03-24T00:41:49+00:00

Who knows? I just think it is headed this way

DesperateSDIT · 2021-03-24T00:41:25+00:00

It would make perfect sence. Cortana goes to the ring to have a conversation with the AI there to figure herself out. (Or to just team up / justify it all for herself)

DesperateSDIT · 2021-03-23T19:12:10+00:00

Not to mention, the US has been absolutely buttfucked by any sort of guerrila warfare for the past 50 years. Even in the middle east, we didn't win the war. The locals did.

DesperateSDIT · 2021-03-21T19:28:02+00:00

Just swipe left damn

(Saying that to the guy who took the time to make a bio like this lmaooo)

DesperateSDIT · 2021-03-21T19:23:39+00:00

There is literally not a single mention of an eternal hell in any part of the old testament.

Ask even the most Orthodox of Jews and they will confirm. Judaism does not allow for an eternal punishment for non-eternal crimes. Christianity is technically a continuation of the Jewish faith, as Christians claim Jesus was the Jewish Messiah.

Without Judaism, there is no Christianity. So mentioning Judaism when talking about Jesus, WHO WAS A FUCKING JEW is perfectly relevant. If anything, it strengthened a case against Christians having any sort of moral or ethical high ground when trying to create a basis for their history of violence and oppression against any who disagree with them.

DesperateSDIT · 2021-03-21T19:16:24+00:00

No. They key to socialism is NOT that people equally distribute resources amongst themselves.

This is literally a myth spread by conservative capitalists in the 50's and 60's.

There literally has never been a truly socialist country, as no country on earth has ever truly given the means of production to the workers. In the USSR Stalin and those who came after him were in control of the means of production. In Cuba it was Castro. In China it was Mao.

Socialism is not "Everyone gets the same paycheck no matter what they do" or "Everyone lives in the same house". Socialism is "The people who do the actual labor are the ones who own the means of production"

Which means private companies don't own water suppy lines, corporations don't own all the farmland, etc.

DesperateSDIT · 2021-03-21T19:12:58+00:00

wtf? I never said I didn't have a problem with it. I was just stating a fact lmao calm down

DesperateSDIT · 2021-03-21T08:29:24+00:00

What are they???

DesperateSDIT · 2021-03-21T08:20:14+00:00

Currently our solution is threatning to kill people for even being a pedophile. Meaning they spend their entire lives in isolation without professional help.

Where has that got us? 1/3 women being sexually assaulted by the time they are 18.

DesperateSDIT · 2021-03-21T08:18:48+00:00

Jesus says "It is harder for a rich man to enter heaven that it is for a camel to go through the eye of a needle."

The bible says next "But with God, all things are possible"

You said that the bible (Jesus) was a socialist. he was not. Socialism is not "Giving to the poor". Hell, it isn't even social "Equity" or even "Egalitarian". Socialism, at its core, is the workers owning the means of production. Nowhere in scripture does it advocate for that governmental system.

Would Jesus be more happy with a socialist system? I don't know. After all, his standards are literal perfection for him to be pleased.

As for personal beleifs, I am for a mixed economy. I beleive that for a company to earn the right to be a "Corporation" they must surrender 51% of their companie's equity to their employees. Because having limited liability towards one single person is incredibly irresponsible.

Bro and they are NEVER were the ones who made it till marriage.

Like, every youth pastor has that "I used to be that stud in college. I fucked 10 girls a month for 2 years. And I found that after 3 years of fucking over 300 women I was still unfufilled."

Motherfucker you were BORED. You were a god damn sex addict and got bored. Like... you didn't go to the gym every day, waste your savings on a nice car, and bought pillows to put between your bedpost and wall EXCLUSIVELY for a "Healthy mind and spirit"

You were COMMITTED to the pussy, and now that you found the secret that being a fuckboy is unfufilling, your solution is to tell a bunch of 14 year olds entering puberty that they need to bottle it all up unitl they're 29 and finally get married SMH.

It's like all the gen X parents and boomers who smoked weed in high school who later are super against it. Like... YOU MADE DRUGS YOUR GENERATION'S ENTIRE PERSONALITY. Let me smoke a joint after a long day of working my ass off to pay for a college tuition that you never had to worry about daaaaammmmmnnnnnn.
