The purpose of this essay is to analyse music from the film ' Star Wars' and discuss in detail, the function of this music, the elements of music used and how this music embellishes the film. This includes the purpose of the music. It is to represent a character/ action / set a geographical location/ create atmosphere/ to psychologically unite the audience.

Music plays a critical role in the narrative films as it is important technique that filmmakers use to support the narrative and influence the way that the viewer interacts, responds and interprets the events as they unfold. The godfather, which is one of all time Hollywood movies, represents a good use of music that succeeded in supporting the dramatic events that take place in the movie. Moreover, both diegetic and non-diegetic music in the godfather movie are used to achieve the overall purpose by using the different principles and functions of film music that range from setting the mood of the viewer to providing continuity within the movie. In this essay, we will take part of the godfather movie in which we can observe and analyse the

A composer depends entirely upon the nature of the film for all the clues needed to write a suitable score for a film. Brought into the production after a certain amount of film has been shot, the films concept will dictate how the composer will write the music. Whether based on the story line, or providing information by setting an atmospheric state, film music will always have different purposes between different films. Penguin Ballet by Nigel Westlake was composed to focuses upon the graceful, almost ballet like movements of the penguins underwater. Whereas, Writings on the wall by Sam Smith conveys ideas and messages which will be expressed throughout the film, especially through the use of lyrics. Although positioned within the film to provide contrasting messages, both these songs use similar musical elements to support the piece, and its position with the film. The discussion of this essay is that there are similarities between the musical elements that support the lyrics in a song and the action in a documentary. Through this, we will discuss the musical element’s of pitch, and timbre and texture.

Antonio begins to ponder his relationship with Ultima and her seemingly magical powers. Antonio is extremely worried about separating from his mother and he secretly hopes that Ultima's magic will help him get through school.

Antonio begins to realize that although the forces of good and evil may have a similar feel, the souls and the intentions

Firstly, Australia and its society have vastly changed since the 1800s. Back in Jandamarra’s times early settlers and indigenous people were treated very harshly this included unjust rules and punishments to corrupt legal systems. Today in Australia while the government is not completely fair it is much better than it used to be and its society is in a completely different context to what it used to be. Therefore there is little reasons for students needing to learn this at school or even for adults to be educated on this topic. The only real reason someone would need to learn about this story would be if a person in the government or media wanted to compare the justice systems of today and back then. Jandamarra’s story may showcase the terrible

Originally, Uchida demonstrates through Hana and Taro’s relationship, that no matter how strong a relationship, someone will end up being unfaithful to the other. It’s a common cycle when man and woman fall in love, and at the time they would have never thought it was possible for their better half to break their heart. After a while, they find out their loved one has deceived them. Hana originally lived in Japan but she wanted to move to America because she was under the impression that life would be great and all would be well.

So when Taro introduced Hana to his best friend

As Ali's face dissolves to a flashback, non-diegetic music accompanies the overview of Algiers. The musical motif which begins as the camera starts to pan is exemplary of the parallel relationship between the aural and visual elements in the film. As Joan Mellen has highlighted, the arabic soundtrack, as if from another world, expresses the

The importance of music in movies is highly regarded for manipulating the viewer’s emotions and helping them immerse into the story. Music is one of the prime elements in cinema. Without it a movie would feel dull and unexciting. There are three elements in a movie: one is acting, the second is picture, and the third one is music. It is a holy trinity; if incomplete, there would be a lack of sensation and excitement. Both acting and picture can stand independently from one another, but music is the one that makes the movie memorable.

Music can be extraordinarily influential in films, as it has the ability to evoke emotion not displayed by on-screen action. Music used in films can play many roles; it can depict time and place, mood, atmosphere, character, and can be used to underscore the onscreen drama and titles. Alan Silvestri and John Williams successfully manipulate the use of music in film to establish characters (along with their personality, actions and changing emotions), as well as underscore the mood for the entirety of their given films. The contrasts of Silvestri’s “The Feather Theme” with Williams’ “Batman Theme” exemplify the power of music in film.

The purpose of this paper is to simply explore the world music aspects of the song “Jai-Ho” a piece that combines music styles from around the world containing Western and non-Western musical aspects. The reason I chose this song as my topic is because it is a popular song in America although it does contain many different cultural influences. Growing up I have been exposed to Rap, R&B, and Pop music, sometimes even a combination of all three. This music is what I prefer the most out of the vast majority of labels given to describe songs’ musical aspects. About seven years ago, I remember hearing the song “Jai-Ho” coming from the speakers of my television as my dad watched the movie “Slum Dog Millionaire” I remember the fast pace rhythm, the

Music has played a major role through out the entire film. It is used as a

In the movies, there are a number of factors that will impact the quality of the film and the story. This is because producers and directors are using different techniques that will enhance their ability to entertain. The Sound of Music is taking numerous ideas and is integrating them together. To fully understand what is happening, there will be an examination of the film and various concepts. This will be accomplished by focusing on: the storytelling, acting, cinematography, editing, sound, style / directing, impact of the film on society / vice versa, genre, application of at least one approach and overall textual themes. Together, these elements will highlight the effects of the film and how it has influenced others inside the industry.

Since the establishment of Walt Disney Company in 1923, it has created many classic animated characters, such as Mickey Mouse, Donald Duck, Lion King, Bambi, and so on. The success of Disney animated movie is not only due to its wonderful storyline and the vivid characterization of the animated characters, but also because of the music produced in the film. Disney’s music, whether its theme music, its background music, or song music, are clever and perfect blend of the plot, prompting many Disney animated movies become classics. This paper will focus on one of the Disney’s animated movie, The Three Caballeros, and analysis the connections between its content and its music.

Though these aforementioned motifs are used quite extensively in Hollywood film music, the use of music to augment the cinematic scene in Hollywood films is seen most noticeably during instances of grandeur and opulence. To accompany these scenes, the film scorers elect to use large ensembles, with each family of instrument partaking in the production. This correlation has become a staple in Hollywood films, as “orchestral size not only indicated musical choice or financial well-being but became a status symbol for the music director” (Morcom 70). Such an implementation of emotional mimicry is found in the movie The Lord of the Rings: The Twin Towers, when Howard Shore’s “Helm’s Deep” played during the Helms Deep Charge. In the middle of the Rohirrim charge at Helms Deep, Gandalf the White presents himself at the top of the hill on a great white stallion. Gandalf is magnificence personified, so the choice in musical accompaniment simply strengthens the delivery of this fact to the audience. Therefore, as seen from all three previously discussed styles, there exists a pattern in the field of music, where an inherent sense of strategy and intention is employed when selecting the notes in a piece. In American culture, the general view of film music is that “song sequences, seen as distractions, cast doubt on a film's narrative authenticity by limiting creativity, plot development, and characterization, resulting in a genre that appears to lack cinematic realism as compared to

In the film, two main women lead roles. First, Rokeya Prachi, who is considered ‘number one’ in terms of rating. For the second female prime role I contacted Tisha. Sorry, forgot her full name, also, celebrity filmmaker Farooki is her spouse, her overcrowded schedule ruled out her involvement, on the other hand my time is limited, required to get back to US. Then I told another friend, also a prominent filmmaker Atik, Nurul Alam, he said they have a friend named Shushoma, would be fine for your movie. The film’s core male principle role Joyanta Chatterjee, my understanding he is such a gigantic personality you may expect in a country like Bangladesh as an actor. He recommended her too. I had no idea what I was doing, she is a beautiful woman, cooperative, sincere. Once the cinematographer took a day off, but we can’t suspend the shooting, therefore I did the shooting. Next time Shushoma said Anwar Bhai, I have a scoop, her description: she shared the information with her husband that our camera man couldn’t show-up today as he had to go to Chittagong. Her husband asked “then how the shooting continued?” She replied “our director did. After hearing the odd (!) her spouse was surprised and shocked? The reason is, he never learned a director could carry out such work? My standard of brain storming failed to reach out such customary of indie industry’s ethos. Here the essential learning is, a director wouldn’t know the photography and so.
