This is not a redirect to the Factory or another product. It is the curriculum path for this exact class.
Build 1 · Sound Discovery
Read the Phonetic Skeleton Method, preserve the source recording, mark the vocal movement, and build a language bank before forcing full lines.
Build 2 · Line & Pair Mechanics
Read the Line and Pair Mechanics examples, then write four dependent pairs whose second lines answer, sharpen, reverse, or complicate the first.
Build 3 · Structural Movement
Read the escalation and payoff demonstrations, then map pressure across a section and record one earned payoff pass.
Build 4 · Rhyme, Density & Pocket
Read the sound-family, density, and read-aloud material, then make a rhyme map and compare a revised pair aloud.
Build 5 · Controlled Variation
Read the cadence and pocket practice, mark syllable movement and breath, then record two delivery passes and select the stronger version.
Build 6 · Concept, Imagery & Hooks
Read the concept, imagery, hook, and structure material, then submit an image system, hook candidates, selected hook, and complete song blueprint.
Build 7 · Performance Psychology
Read the performance map and delivery material, then mark the lyric and record a controlled vocal performance with clear intention.
Build 8 · Revision & Complete Song
Read the diagnostic revision and complete-song material, then submit the finished original song, version history, revision rationale, and performance recording.
Build 9 · Reusable Personal System
Read the quick-reference forms and final audit, then turn the completed song into a reusable personal songwriting system and next-song start plan.
Two complete classes each week.
2 complete studio classes each week. Finish both meetings and the stated weekly evidence before the next week begins. Use the remaining access window for recording passes, revision, performance preparation, and final audit.
