Masterclass-Style Workshops
We are always happy to invite high school students to Point Blank Los Angeles to see our facilities and experience what life is like as a Point Blank student, and to visit Los Angeles area high schools with free workshops on electronic music and DJing to give students all over Southern California a taste of what Point Blank is all about. We've designed several fun, engaging music workshops for high schoolers in specialized areas such as music production, recording, remixing, DJing, etc. Our workshop participants explore techniques for building and performing modern electronic music, and are always given chances to ask questions and get hands-on to immediately apply their newly-acquired knowledge.
Point Blank wants to offer insights and opportunities to young people considering careers in music. If you have students that interested in working in the music business, we would be happy to provide them with one of these masterclass-style workshops free of charge, either at your high school campus at our state-of-the-art studios in Silver Lake. Explore the various workshop options below, and contact us if you would like to schedule a free workshop for your students!
