PORTFOLIO DUE WED 29 APRIL 2009

You need to hand up a labelled CD with a portfolio of all work created this year (preferably with learning log)

I will meet students to go through these portfolios on Wed 29 April 2009 in D01.
Group W1 09.30-11.30
Group W2 11.30-13.30
Group W3 15.00-17.00

Note, where your last assignment wasn't up to scratch, I suggested that you should redo the assignment. Make it clear on the disc if want me to correct the second attempt.

Concentrate on the MIDI not the Audio.

If you are using Ableton Live to redo the assignment,
you must have the .als file if saving is permitted
otherwise
include screen shots of your work as you proceed.
