The Songwriting Workshop offers you the opportunity to immerse yourself in the art of songwriting. The workshop will examine song forms, melody creation, and the interaction and use of rhythm and harmony. Berklee teachers and guest clinicians will help students explore lyric writing as well as ideas that will help the creative process. You'll see demonstrations of how technology has allowed the easy exchange of ideas and files, and strategies and tools for improving both your songwriting and production values through collaboration. An overview of how songs are currently used in film and TV (and other visual media) will be discussed along with the tools you'll need to place your songs and start earning royalties in this fast developing industry.
