Explaining the key structure for composition

Explaining the key structure for composition

Currently working as the sound designer for the Hidden production with directors Annette Mees and Tom Bowtell. We are developing a production in collaboration with the 42nd Street Youth arts centre in Manchester alongside the project LiveShout.  This week we were working with young carers exploring themes, sounds, senses, sets etc., as inspiration for our final production at the end of January 2017. So far it’s been a lot of exploratory and fun work. Some documentation above of my end working with the teens to develop skills in graphic composition using iOS applications in performance. It is a tool that has worked well for me in the past when working with young people. But these teens have really adapted to the idea of turning language into sound through visual metaphors. Some nice images below of the sounding processes.  The final production will be shaped by all their input.
