Therefore I adapt my teaching methodologies to the tastes and needs of every student. Throughout every lesson, we will work on three main courses of development: technical aspects, theoretical knowledge, and performative practice.

Bass and innovations, visual content, defi, web3, crypto, NFTs.

My experience is connected with several companies (MU Interactive, Simple Frame, Lightcraft, and ModulorVR as I did video editing / mapping, VFX, SFX, 2d / 3d animations, motion graphics). For ModulorVR I worked completely remotely as well.

I mainly work with After Effects (with Polish companies clients like MediaMarkt, Mediatech, ING etc), I studied Final Cut and Adobe (Photoshop, Illustrator, Premiere too) with my advertising school. Now I use Blender, Cinema 4d, p5.js or Processing too.

According to Gallup's teamwork testing, my top 3 talents are:
1. Strategy 2. Input 3. Empathy. I also gained a lot of experience with other industries, I worked with small or large teams, now I also study Dutch, I improve my communication by working with people offline.

Doing volunteer work for FITC (Future Innovation Technology Creativity), I personally met Beeple or Pak there. So naturally I got excited about NFTs, crypto or defi and now I'm even more obsessed with podcasts again. Before meeting Beeple or GMunk, I also listened to podcasts with them. And I studied art history to prepare for the future.

I made my first movies when I was a teenager, my visual workflows started with compilations about football... And that's how I made my first money (when I was 15 years old) with our international collective for SportsMaxTV. (completely remote) With Polish visual companies I worked as a video editor / video mapper or motion designer, and now I live in the Netherlands, so I become more communicative and sporty. Always learning is really important to me. I am not afraid of new things, innovations and to work smarter or harder.

Sincerely,
Filip

At its core, music theory is the study of how music works. It explores the structures and systems that composers and musicians use to create the sounds that we love. In this course, we will cover the basics of music notation, intervals, scales, chords, harmony, and form, among other topics.

Throughout the course, we will examine musical examples from a variety of styles and genres, including classical, jazz, pop, and folk music. We will also explore the historical context of music theory and the ways in which different musical cultures and traditions have developed their own unique approaches to creating and understanding music.

By the end of this course, you will have a deeper understanding of the building blocks of music and the ways in which they are combined to create different musical styles and genres. You will also be able to read and analyze musical notation, identify and describe different musical elements, and have the tools to begin composing your own music.

Whether you are a musician looking to expand your knowledge of music theory, a music student seeking a solid foundation in the basics, or simply a music lover interested in learning more about the mechanics of music, this course is for you. So let's dive in and explore the fascinating world of music theory together!

Hello!

Composer and music producer for about twenty years, I offer you help in learning the different sound creation tools such as the use of composition applications (specialty FL Studio, WAVE suite, Spitfire, EastWest, etc.) as well as the workflow between real sound recordings and their integration into the digital environment. Ideally complementary to your musical background, I am also available to start on a good basis and follow at your speed the musical journey necessary for the evolution of your project.

Beyond the artistic projects I have to my credit (EleYpsis, The8thstep, Color8 etc.) and my activity of composition for images (Scherzoworx), I also have several years of experience in teaching musical discovery for adolescents without a solid musical background.

Joseph Moruzzi is a saxophonist originally from the United States and is currently residing in the Netherlands. The main focus of Joseph’s work as a musician is on classical and contemporary repertoire, which includes transcriptions of forgotten works, theatrical music, and new compositions written for the saxophone. Joseph has earned a Bachelor of Music degree from the Eastman School of Music in Rochester, New York as well as a Master of Music degree from the Conservatorium van Amsterdam.

As a teacher, I enjoy going through fundamentals when teaching the saxophone, whether that is technique, posture, or musicality. I make sure students are learning technique while playing pieces that they are interested in themselves, having a balance in the lessons. I also enjoy teaching various etudes or repertoire for the saxophone, giving the student a deeper understanding of the saxophone's history and versatility.

I am open to teaching in-person, but if virtual lessons are more convenient then thats is also possible. Thanks and I look forward to hearing from you!

My lessons focus on creating bass-heavy music with a strong emphasis on rhythm, groove, and impact. We'll work in-depth with 808s, drums, and sound design, so you'll learn how to create powerful low-end that truly works in the mix. I'll share my signature sound and approach, developed through years of industry experience, and teach you how to translate this into a unique sound that suits you as a producer.
