In comparison to our previous months and weeks in class, this week was an extreme break in workload an information. In class we discussed a multitude of ways to organize our information and increase workload, using the snapshot method (enter twice). Then for the rest of the week, we practiced using these skills and having Dr. Drew mix a few of our songs. In doing his mixing demonstration he reitterated the point of mixing (by the octave). I felt that I got a better grasp for the aptitude of the other groups in our class in regards to their current progression within their prospective group albums. At points within our own progression I felt that we were hitting intellectual walls compositionally. However, after filling out some of our classmates work thus far I feel that we are right on par with where we should be. The composition that struck me the most was group C's song. Musically I found that they had organized and arranged quite the respective arrangement, however at certain points it was thrown off by the organization by the vocalists approach. After observing their track it made me take a more introspective look at my own delivery on some of our tracks.
In the studio this week we simply applied teachings from class. Within our two lab sessions we were able to successfully organize screen shots for all of our songs except for one. Because the setup process was so simplistic, the group used the time to lament important aspects of our distribution process for the group album. This week I finally feel like we are recovering fully from the spring break.
