MUS 30.02 Film Scoring

From music to image, this creative writing course explores the fundamental craftsmanship and aesthetic aspects of composing for film and media. We investigate and analyze the intersection of film, music and sound over the term. The course is structured in five modules, in which students are assigned to create original music and sound for four films (an animation, documentary, feature and experimental film) with acoustic, or a combination of electronic and acoustic instruments. The final project will be read and recorded with DSO musicians led by conductor Filippo Ciabatti. One (maximum of two) of the final projects will be chosen to present at a future DSO concert(s).

The Timetable of Class Meetings contains the most up-to-date information about a course. It includes not only the meeting time and instructor, but also its official distributive and/or world culture designation. This information supersedes any information you may see elsewhere, to include what may appear in this ORC/Catalog or on a department/program website. Note that course attributes may change term to term therefore those in effect are those (only) during the term in which you enroll in the course.
