Workshop: History of the Hollywood Film Score – Part 1
Instructors: Chris Julian
Duration: 3 Hour
Join filmmaker and musician Chris Julian for a two-session workshop that examines film scoring over the last century of Hollywood filmmaking. We’ll look at the history and theory behind this subtle and sometimes overlooked art form. This workshop will cover the basics of different time periods and trends within film score history, some of the most influential and prolific composers, and the terminology and basic workflow of how filmmakers incorporate original music into film.
These group gatherings will feature plenty of clips to view, and comparisons between scoreless and scored versions of the same scenes, plus different and alternate scores for the same scenes, and how music can shift the perceptions of the audience. One of the classes will also feature a visit from a film composer, who will present work from their career as well as share stories about their experiences working in the industry. Come join us for watching, listening, and many rounds of discussions and debates about how this sometimes elusive craft affects our film-going experience.
