Music Production Career.

I really want to be a music producer. I’m looking every where online for a school or courses for college and none. I have to be older to even look into it or even take it. there was a school in LA that had internships but I want to know where is a good music engineering school that will allow me to follow my dreams as my age right now. I make my own music and I also sing. I really want to take more classes involving music production..

any help??

Answer #1

Learn how to use a number of instruments, learn how to read sheet music, master tempo’s, perhaps even write your own music.

Learn how to use a soundboard. Learn how to use multiple computer programs. Create some beats, and don’t only write for one genre. Try doing punk, ska, rock, rap, r&b, country, funk, jazz, and the likes. The more genre’s you do, the more broad your horizons, the more clients you can have.

Start networking. Create business cards. Tell your family and friends you’re producing music. Post bulletins around your neighborhood. You will get clients in no time, if your prices are reasonable. Charge cheaply per hour, or per song. Do you have a cousin who is a great singer? A uncle who has a niche for playing the tuba. Produce them, but remember usually keep family and business separate.

Get an internship at a production company. Sure, its tough work, but you might get some free time in a real recording studio. Soon you might be more trusted and earn a paycheck.

Go to college. Get a degree. If music production doesn’t work out, you have something to fall-back on. Sound engineering, or something to do with business would be a good choice.

After you receive a good income, you could save up, and start your own studio with your clients that you have gathered all this time, or can continue your job with a production company.

Never stop loving music. Don’t lose interest, and don’t give up if you love what you’re doing. http://www.wikihow.com/Become-a-Music-Producer

I wish you every success !!

Answer #2

I was thinking about the same career. The only school I’ve really looked at and I’m considering going to that has a good music program is in London, England. I don’t know how far away you want go to school. I think there’s also a pretty good music school in Cleveland, Ohio.
