Peters Theme

 I think that peters theme was the hardest out of all the themes. I thought it was the hardest because it was the longest and it had a lot of different keys, unlike the hunters theme. I learnt how to play peters theme and I also learnt how to mix down to avi. I improved this theme by playing it over and over again, I also improved it by going into Mix-craft, then going into speed and stretching the notes so they went perfectly with the video. I identified the bad parts in my music by listening to it lots of times and getting the notes to play awesomely. The best part of my music was probably the way the music went so well with the video. The bit that I had trouble with was the part that we had to play the music. I overcame this by playing the music part by part and then making Denis listen to it to see if it was good enough. The only references that I used were the note sheet and the peter and the wolf video. These helped me because when I listened to the video a lot I seemed to start remembering the notes and the minor keys. I thought that the unit was pretty hard but I still enjoyed making the songs and listening to the video. I thought the video was fun because it was like watching a mini movie over and over again. I used my knowledge from IT and from at home. I used that knowledge because when it came to making the video I used all that knowledge to insert the file and to make tis all happen.

  1. How many times did I say in class that an AVI file won't work? How many times did I ask the class & you to mixdown to a WMV file then upload the file? I cannot open this link and therefore cannot mark your work!

    You have written a reasonable reflection as you have stated some of the techniques you used to overcome problems & made brief reference to prior skills.
