The live music production industry spans a range of music, events and entertainment contexts. Live events range from local and regional to global settings with audience sizes ranging from small groups to hundreds of thousands. The UK live events and entertainment industry is world class and following the period of inactivity brought about by the pandemic there are significant growth opportunities emerging. Locally, there are many tangible prospects for musicians, music technologists, sound engineers, sound designers and producers that seek to begin or re-establish their careers. At Level 4, students develop a broad knowledge and awareness of key aspects of the music industry through three Core units, which include one unit assessed by a Pearson-set assignment. The units are: Unit 1: The Music Industry Unit 2: Marketing and Promotion for Musicians (Pearson-set unit) Unit 3: Professional Development Unit 12: Applied Sound Principles Unit 13: Recording Technology Unit 14: Creative Software Techniques Unit 16: Music Production Fundamentals Unit 20: Live Sound Techniques
