Filmstro | How to Make your Video Soundtrack better - Tips for Filmmakers @Filmstro | Uploaded January 2022 | Updated October 2024, 1 hour ago.
This first Audio Lab Episode explores several musical techniques that Filmmakers need to know to elevate the production value for their Soundtracks.

Whether you're working with a composer and want to know some more musical jargon to better communicate your ideas, or whether you're using stock audio and need some more knowledge about which bits of a soundtrack to use to maximise your film, this video is for you!

In this video we're looking specifically at:

- the role of low strings in mis-en-scene
- the role of 'articulations' in stringed instruments to create specific moods
- what a musical 'pedal' is and how it builds anticipation
- the choice of material that is used for percussion instruments to further compliment the on-screen action.

Let us know your comments and questions and feel free to make suggestions for reference movies for future episodes!
