What Are the Elements of Cinematography Composition?

The cinematography of a film is the way it is shot, which includes everything on-screen visual aspects such as lighting, framing, composition, camera movement, camera angles, film choice, lens options, depth of field, zoom, focus and color.

What Makes a Great Film Score?

A great film score should be memorable, convey emotion, and never interfere with dialogue.

The music should be able to establish the mood of the scene to help set an emotional tone for the viewers. They can do this either by using notes or by relying on long periods of silence.

The main function of the music is to make sure that no matter what’s happening on-screen, audiences are always emotionally invested in what is happening.

How Do You Score Brass?

This article mentions how one might go about scoring brass instruments in an orchestral piece, achieving the desired effect through different rhythmic structures and melodic motifs for orchestrating these instruments in their particular register.

How Do You Write Epic Brass?

The sound of epic brass comes from capturing the right piece of gear. The short answer, therefore, is to use good quality brass instruments! For a more technical explanation, look at your instrument’s mouthpiece or headjoint.

For a solid cup mouthpiece (the most common type), you are looking for one that offers medium to low resistance. If it offers high resistance, this will tend to situate you on a higher register which can be useful for some applications but not so much when seeking the more powerful tones of the first horn section in an orchestra that all have tenor trombones with medium-large bore and thus offers lower levels of resistance. A general rule of thumb is that any time there are horns involved things will benefit from a medium resistance mouthpiece.

The biggest part of writing epic brass is finding the right timbre for your sound and this will come from matching the appropriate headjoint / mouthpiece with that instrument because it determines what sounds can be produced by changing air pressure (from inside your lungs) and how much force you must apply to get these sounds out.
