GarageBand. 18/10/10

GarageBand is a programme used for creating music to accompany films. When thinking about what kind of music you want to accompany your film you need to think about the following things first:
  • Whether the music is made to the film, or vice versa.
  • Structural concepts, imagining the music as a graph with heightened volume or build up creating a ascension in your graph.
  • Tension, looking at your film and finding points where tense music would add to the atmosphere.
  • Impact points where you want the viewer to pay particular attention, then finding the instrument to compliment this.

  This link takes you to the short film: 'The Dark Side of the Lens.'
  This particular film was edited to the music. The music would have been created first and then an editor would become a team with the composer to work together to reach the final film. The main thing that creates tension in this film in the rhythm of the music.
This is my first attempt at creating a graph of the score of music. It represents the score of the film 'The Dark Side of the Lens.'
