MUI 6630 - Media Composition and Sound Design

3 Semester Hour(s)

The composition, creation and production of music for media is a fundamental and foundational part of the music and entertainment industries. With the growing demand for media driven largely by streaming services, the demand for media composers and sound designers is expanding at an exponential rate. This course is focused in two key areas including music composition for any and all dramatic visual needs as well as sound design/special effects. An overview of music composition in various forms of media will be explored and experienced. A final capstone media project will be written and produced for inclusion in the student’s portfolio.
