Soundtrack

Sound Choosing the soundtrack for a movie is another difficult task that a director has to do because they have to find a perfect song or an instrumental track that will fit or compliment the scene that they are editing. The soundtrack of a movie is also a guaranteed way of effecting the emotions of the audience members. As a result, directors spend a great deal of time in choosing the right soundtrack for the movie. They want to make sure that they target the correct emotions for each scene

Soundtracks to films often strive to represent the themes and feeling of the film, and direct the audience towards particular emotions. A good soundtrack not only allows for the listener to understand the film better, but it should also bring to mind particular scenes, images, or characters. Soundtracks for books can do the same. In my creation of a soundtrack for Octavia E. Butler’s Parable of the Sower, I strove to encompass Lauren’s journey throughout the novel and the various emotions that she

After reading the memoir titled The Heroin Diaries, in which the author, Nikki Sixx, presents a first hand account of his battles with heroin addiction over the course of one year, we must incorporate certain concepts in order to better understand his condition.

Covers versions are credited to be “one of the most important precedents for the rise of rock ‘n’ roll.” This “commercial and musical phenomenon” is the use of a previously recorded song that is either remade or reinterpreted by another group or artist. There is an argument that cover versions are employed by bands and artists in order to “cash in” on the success that the original version provided the original artist. However, as in all debates, there is a side that argues that cover versions

"Try again, who trained you over at slenders?...your style and skills are horrible" You growled and lashed out at the boy who stood in front of you with a knife wielded in their hand. The person simply dodged and kicked in the back of your legs,making you fall back onto the muddy grass that you were training on. "well, didn't get much training, I went a bit crazy" You spoke slowly looking up at Liu. Ever since you tried to escape, Trender assigned for you to always be with Liu and he would be

It was a dark and stormy night, and my family and I had dinner reservations at one of the top restaurants in Toronto. On this day, I woke up feeling a bit tingly and excited, and it wasn’t because I had taken viagra the night before. No, I could tell that something interesting was going to happen that day — I could just feel it.

Introduction The song I have chosen is “I Will Always Love You” performed by Whitney Houston, produced by David Foster, and written by Dolly Parton. “I Will Always Love You” was featured in the 1992 movie The Bodyguard and is an iconic soul ballad sung with complex ranges by the late, great Whitney Houston (1963-2012). Whitney Houston was acknowledged for her exceptional voice: “a mezzo-soprano, she had tremendous range and popularized a difficult vocal technique, melisma, where a singer uses a range

Woodstock Music Festival was a music event in Bethel, New York that changed the way people live. During August of 1969, Woodstock swept the nation with not only talented musicians, but also many new thoughts and opinions on the world. This popular concert event introduced ideas of peace, unity, kindness, and togetherness. Woodstock not only made an impact on the United States, but led to change worldwide. It helped people overcome prejudices, informed people about the danger of drugs, led to safer

In Bob Dylan’s music, I have been told that rain is almost always a bad sign. However, his songs do not always reflect this (barring the fact that the apocalypse might be rain based). Instead, rain occupies a gray area in his music and often comes off as spiritual and something that brings clarity. Three songs that execute this gray area are “A Hard Rain’s A- Gonna Fall,” “Chimes of Freedom,” and “Visions of Johanna.” “A Hard Rain’s A-Gonna Fall” is one of Dylan’s most powerful songs. The song, lyrically
