As Sherlock Holmes put it, education is a "series of lessons with the greatest for the last."
I had the honor of being invited to speak at USC. Lennie Moore (game composer now working on a game score for "Dirty Harry", being performed on the Eastwood stage I might add) teaches a class on game music and had me as a guest lecturer.
The group was larger than my last lecture at UCLA with 22 students. They were all masters students in composition so we actually got to talk theory a bit, and we had some clever ideas about how to potentially approach the score to a game such as Stranglehold.
It's a great pleasure to teach. I love doing it and hope I can do so again, on one condition: I will never again drive to and from Los Angeles without another person in the car. :)
