Now that you have learned a few basic tools and features of Audition, you will apply that knowledge in this project. ​The purpose of this project is to create an audio project that contains parts of several pieces of music "mashed" together to create a single music example.  This medley mix is a process that is used in the music, TV, sports, and entertainment world.  Many athletes (dance teams, cheerleaders, gymnastics routines) use medley mixes in their routines for competition.  Medley mixes are often found on the radio for commercials or for a quick sample of a product or music review.

You have been hired as an audio editor for Mix Master Incorporated.  They want you to edit a musical mashup hype song for their next event.
 

Your job is to cut, splice, and mix original musical recording to cleanly transition from different sections of each song. Plan on using at LEAST 4 DIFFERENT SELECTIONS OF MUSIC.  Every 10-15 seconds there should be a change in the song by way of a different audio clip.  Make sure each audio clip is adjusted in volume and/or fade to create smooth transitions.  The mash up should be 2 minutes in length.  Your 4 songs should not go in order, but should go back and forth between sections of songs like the diagram.As you work, save your project as an Audition project file (.SESX) and name it last name +first initial + mashup. When you are finished, export it using Export>Multitrack Mixdown>Entire Session and choose the .MP3 encoder and name the output file the same name (ex: wheelesbmashupMP3).  Submit the .MP3 file using the form below.  Don't forget to review the rubric to make sure you are meeting all of the project requirements!
