The music used in films greatly enhances the experience of the viewer. Music can add so much to the emotions playing out in the movie, whether it is heard during dialogue or in scenes without words. Unspoken thoughts can be conveyed to the audience through the use of appropriate music.
For this discussion, pick a movie in which the music stands out to you.
In your post below, include the following:
Post link to movie clip if available on YouTube, Vimeo, etc.
Include name of movie and name of music piece if known
Include the time of the video where music starts (if long clip)
Discuss why you think the music was chosen for the particular scene
Discuss how you feel the music impacted the scene
What would you have done differently (perhaps a different piece of music?)
For this assignment, you will choose a contemporary Rock group or artist and address the prompts below. It is important to note that our contemporary music did not come out of thin air. Many of the harmonic backgrounds of current songs have come to us from Blues and other earlier forms. Many tunes from our time only contain three or four “chords” or harmonic changes. Most songs are written in common time, which means there are four beats to a measure.
Choose your favorite band or artist. Respond to the following prompts:
Name your favorite band or artist
Why do you like this artist/band?
What are the best pieces by this artist/band?
Compare the style of this artist/band to previous artists/bands
How were they influenced by earlier artists/bands?
Have they influenced others?
