I also found videos of him composing the film inception; Im really amazed how good Hans Zimmer is at finding the right unique sounds to each image. I found a video of Hans composing one of his amazing soundtracks the pirates of the caribbean, its awesome how good works with his director even though they have different opinions he always finds a path for success.Pirates of the caribbean showed how crazy Hans truly is especially with the strings. 20th of june- I found a great video that gives you tips on how to start a film composer career.It gives you information about how your cv should give out and it also gives you tips about sample libraries, where to find them and how to find what type of sounds you are looking for. 25th of june- I found videos on how to make midi samples to sound realistic.It teaches you how to modulate the sample and automate the audio with the software your using.I found out that each video has a different type of teaching, it gives out a great way of options that gives out the same results at the end. I also tend to learn on how to write music composition, ill try and give out different examples of music that i have created by learning from different sources (books) and composers |
