Celebrating Black History Month at Confetti

Today we welcomed music producer and DJ Conner Turner to our brand new Contemporary Music and Live Events Hub.

Gareth Jones – a music producer and engineer notable for working with Depeche Mode, Erasure, Indochine and Interpol – has been doing mixing masterclasses with our Audio and Music Technology students.

Our FdSc Audio and Music Technology students moved their recording sessions into Studio 2 and made full use out of the live room, vocal booth, editing suite and control room.

On Saturday 21 July, Nottingham’s biggest live music event Splendour Festival returns to Wollaton Park for the 10th year and we’re excited to once again be a part of it!

Although Industry Week is there for students to enjoy, we also want to provide you with the opportunity to gain some experience in working at the event too!

While many of you enjoyed the Christmas holidays and New Year, the construction of our Digital Media Hub has stayed very much on track and has become a fantastic structure in such a short space of time.

You can still apply for many Confetti courses through UCAS, just get in touch with us and we’ll help you through the process.

From the 5-9 March, Industry Week will be in full force – for a week, Confetti students will be given a taster and real insight into the most exciting and competitive creative industries in the world.

Confetti would like to thank everyone for all of their hard work over the past year and we wish you all a safe and happy winter break.

After another fantastic year in the Creative Quarter let’s have a look at our favourite moments from the previous 12 months.

Last Monday our Level 3 Technical Events students ran a fantastic Christmas Party at Rescue Rooms.

We’re delighted to announce that our partners Nottingham Trent University have been named University of the Year at the Times Higher Education Awards 2017.
