News gathering and writing, journalism ethics, audio editing, radio production

I seek to be interactive in bringing to life the classroom theory with the practice of journalism generally and radio and online journalism in particular. In the delivery of the content, you may be provided with a basic understanding of radio broadcasting generally and why even in today's social media-driven environment professionally produced audio content is still relevant and appropriate. Wherever necessary, you will be exposed to real-life examples of content. This will be coupled with or based on a a wealth of experience operating in a Developing Nation/Third World environment in which journalists have to navigate political, economic and other challenges. There is a significant emphasis on ethical journalism and the integrity of the journalist in the practice of his or her craft. I am a great teacher because I aim to simplify complex journalism concepts by applying them to real-life situations. Students are generally satisfied with my approach especially with an emphasis on social interactionism.

Lukas
Music Production, Audio Engineering and Songwriting Classes
I studied music production at the University of California, San Diego (UCSD) under the mentorship of King James Britt, and at Abbey Road in London. I am well versed in most audio software (Pro Tools, Ableton Live, Logic Pro X), using all of these in a professional setting for over 5 years. Currently, I work as an audio engineer, mixing and mastering songs for clients as well as recording in major studios across the city, as well as working remotely for the studio that I started in Oxford (Lenka's Studios). I would love to help you reach your specific goals in Audio production and pass on my knowledge. Students can bring their works in Progress for feedback and to be worked on, or they can ask in advance to learn more about a specific area of audio production (For example, recording techniques for drums or piano, mixing techniques for live recordings or for electronic music). I have many years of experience in writing songs electronically, and for live instruments, for artists in the UK and the USA. If you want to learn more about songwriting, this is another area I would be happy to help with.

Topics may include: beat-making, melody/harmony writing, arrangement, workflow tips, sound design, mixing and mastering, recording, live performance, sampling, and pretty much anything else you can think of to get your sounds off the ground.
