Memories chords progressions and sound effects:
Memories the intro used was the same as my 1st idea but I then added a game trailer that I could compose to.I tried to find sad and emotional story lines and I it lead me to the trailer called The division.The creation of the intro and 2nd development was a minor Melody with the chords of Cm,Eb and Bm for glockenspiel and Afro-cuban piano. I used this instrumentation to add texture and environment. -37 seconds begging of the trailer sound effects- Heavy wind,Police sirens,busy street,city sound effect, child crying, mother crying and dad crying. I then developed a 'bridge' of a piano and strings to waltz into my third development, I used an synchronisation of the end of the short melody in my second development and then i repeated the same melody as my 2nd idea but with different instrumentation so it wouldn't have an enormous difference and it would follow the storyline of the images. For the 1st action part of my soundtrack I used the same melody but I added different textures and chromatic notes for the strings.The instruments that I have used used for this section are 3 set of ensemble strings, piano, drums and 2 different synthesisers playing the same notes. sound effects- glass break, shot gun, tv signal, man breathing and door close Insanity- Is one of my first creepy type of compositions that I have ever created.I started out with the use of 4 synthesisers composing one type of note and chord In different sections of time.It was difficult for me at first because I'm a composer that is tight with the chord progressions but with this soundtrack it let me explore different type of texture and moods in a small type of melody.I also added an audio of a priest chanting to make it more spooky, I added a great amount of reverb and eq to make the audio fit with the synthesisers.the time signature is in 3/4 and the key for the 1st part is E flat.I added 4 synthesisers for the 1st section, 1 playing chords and the other playing clashing notes, I also added an extra synthesiser at the end of the 1st part and beginning of the second, its sort of a bridge for the strings and the piano to enter in the 2nd section.I had the piano motion that messes around with the frequency of the stereo.I added drums to make a sound of a heart beat.Trill strings to make it creepy and scary.Brass to make an impact for the trill strings.Orchestral strings and piano for a small melody at the end of the soundtrack. French musique- Is a unique soundtrack that creating to identify the place and the mood.The first idea was a small melody with the guitar,piano and glockenspiel but I developed to a more suitable texture.I used the same chords but different melodies.Its one of the soundtracks that develops its instruments and melody.The chord is c sharp major and time signature is 3/4.The instruments used are piano legato strings and ensemble,acoustic guitar, accordion and glockenspiel.I hope to make a small theme with this soundtrack that represents its culture.I named this song la belle vile to give out the sense of what I'm trying to develop. |
