Sound & Music Design for Film: Indigenous Filipino Music & World Chants is a workshop for those who are interested in exploring sound-emotion escapes for film, including directing and/or creating music scores, inspired by traditional Filipino music and melodic chants from various parts of the globe. Participants go through the basics of hands-on film sound recording & sound manipulation, and, at the same time, learn Filipino melodic & rhythmic patterns, played on indigenous and modern instruments. If you are a musician, a music lover or film music enthusiast, this workshop is for you.
