FILM SCORING
Composing for film demands the development of tools in order to achieve and assure specific effects in a diversity of parameters such as mood, narration, emotions, symbolism, directionality and aesthetic unity. Working with narrative artwork makes composition a highly conscious, strategic and delicate process, since music can dramatically transform the semantic content of the story.
In film scoring, inspiration is shaped by the context and the constant interrelation and interdependence between sound and extra musical elements.
As a film scorer, I recognize emotions, temperaments and sonic aesthetics as parameters that need to be carefully employed. While composing, I imagine I'm working with a long multichannel sound mixing board where I can balance sounds and non-sonic parameters through potentiometers.
The image of a console helps me to visualize the complete work. This perspective allows me to calibrate the overall aesthetic depending on the needs of each film; and it also helps me to recognize the segments that have the higher poetic potential within the structure.
