Brooklyn College

Feirstein Music graduate Leah Shaw featured in this year's Brooklyn College commencement campaign!

Leah is grateful for all the support she's received from Feirstein Graduate School of Cinema and the Conservatory of Music at Brooklyn College Graduate Students.

And, Leah has just launched a Kickstarter campaign to support mastering and distribution of her debut full-length album Play Beautifully. To connect with this project, visit

#BCGrad2019: “I decided it was time to honor my own and my mother’s commitment to my musical background.”

🎓 Leah Shaw '19 (MFA, Media Scoring) came to Feirstein Graduate School of Cinema after almost walking away from her musicianship altogether.

Woo A and Woo B (Rihanna) - Covers by Leah Shaw

I’m really proud of these two tracks, a couple very different covers of a favorite Rihanna tune. Lots of inspiration from the Feirstein music brain trust here!

https://soundcloud.com/leahshawmusic/sets/woo-a-rihanna-cover-leah-shaw

Shoutout to Teo Blake for so much work producing these. Also to Mike Cassedy for delightfully weird FX processing on Woo B—plus Max, Jaydee, Aaron, Tamara...music party all here 🙌🏽🌟🎶

Woo A - angry + hurt Woo B - hurt Teo Blake, mix engineer + producer Leah Shaw, co-producer + vocals Mike Cassedy, electric piano + vocal FX processing

Congratulations to the first graduating class @feirsteinschool ... all the directors, producers, writers, editors, cinematographers, composers, sound designers, mixers, engineers, and musicians, and everyone who contributed to the thesis films. It was truly a collaborative effort. Exciting to see/hear the films on the big screen @bam_brooklyn
