Audio Post-Production in Your Project Studio When any kind of soundtrack is added to a picture track, whether it's the dialog of a movie, a jingle to a commercial, or the multimedia track of an online or CD-ROM video, the soundtrack is added after the movie itself is produced. This process, called audio post-production, used to require huge audio post-production facilities with massive film and/or video synchronizing machines and other expensive hardware. These days, professional audio post-production can be done using inexpensive hardware and software inside a home or project studio. Audio Post Production in Your Project Studio teaches you how to produce professional quality audio post production projects using these readily available tools. Topics of discussion include software editing, software effects, software mixing, monitoring, software mastering, information on running a successful project studio, and much more. Instruction is presented using a non-software specific approach - the techniques discussed are applicable to any Digital Audio Workstation you choose to work with.

This book tells the exciting stories of the people and inventions that revolutionized the musical sound palette. Electronic Music Pioneers is an expansive title filled with exhaustive research and useful knowledge about the methods and history of electronic music. The book features an extensive timeline, as well as interviews with synth legends like keyboard designer Dr. Robert Moog and artist Klaus Schulze. Composer, musician and journalist Ben Kettlewell has been involved with almost every aspect of the music industry for over three decades. In the early '80s, he hosted a popular public radio program, Imaginary Visions, which was one of the first electronic music series aired in the United States. He has also written scores for various theatrical and film projects, including Jonathan Morrill's 1992 cult film Johnny in Monsterland.

SKU: 330795 ISBN: 1931140170 UPC: 073999307955 Excelsior, You Fathead! - The Art of Jean Shepherd Jean Shepherd (1921-1999), master humorist, is best known for his creation A Christmas Story, the popular movie about the child who wants a BB gun for Christmas and nearly shoots his eye out. What else did Shepherd do? He is considered by many to be the Mark Twain and James Thurber of his day. For many thousands of fans, for decades, Shep talked on the radio late at night, keeping them up way past their bedtimes. He entertained without a script, improvising like a jazz musician, on any and every subject you can imagine. He invented and remains the master of talk radio. Shepherd perpetrated one of the great literary hoaxes of all time, promoting a nonexistent book and author, and then brought the book into existence. He wrote 23 short stories for Playboy, four times winning their humor of the year award, and also interviewed The Beatles for the magazine. He authored several popular books of humor and satire, created several television series and acted in several plays. He is the model for the character played by Jason Robards in the play and movie A Thousand Clowns, as well as the inspiration for the Shel Silverstein song made famous by Johnny Cash, A Boy Named Sue. Readers will learn the significance of innumerable Shepherd words and phrases, such as Excelsior, you fathead, and observe his constant confrontations with the America he loved. They will get to know and understand this multitalented genius by peeking behind the wall he built for himself - a wall to hide a different and less agreeable persona. Through interviews with his friends, co-workers and creative associates, such as musician David Amram, cartoonist and playwright Jules Feiffer, publisher and broadcaster Paul Krassner, and author Norman Mailer, the book explains a complex and unique genius of our time. Shepherd pretty much invented talk radio ... What I got of him was a wonder at the world one man could create. I am as awed now by his achievement as I was then. - Richard Corliss, Time magazine online SKU: 314666 ISBN: 1557836000 UPC: 073999146660 Future of the Music Business, The New technologies are revolutionizing the music business.

SKU: 695787 ISBN: 0634065696 UPC: 073999957877 Knowledge of copyright law is essential to anyone who hopes to have a career in music. It fosters an environment where musicians and songwriters can share their creations with the public and know that their music will not be manipulated or misused without their consent and, most important, that they will be paid for their work. Without copyright law, there would be far less incentive for anyone to make music, and almost no incentive for record labels to produce, market, and sell it. Understanding copyright law is particularly relevant today, as Internet file sharing and CD burning have made music copyright law front-page news. In this book, David J. Moser provides students, educators, lawyers, and anyone in the music industry with a thorough understanding of copyright law, what it protects, the benefits of registering a copyright, and what to do when your copyright has been infringed. Controversies involving copyright and online music are also discussed in detail, with case studies of the recent blockbuster cases in this area, including the lawsuits against Napster, Grokster and more. Although written in clear and readable language, this book is an in-depth resource providing detailed explanations of copyright law's application to music and has been used as a text by institutions such as Fordham University Law School, Loyola University, New York University, Northeastern University and UCLA.
