Master Classes are in-depth, interactive learning experiences focused on craft and career building and led by renowned industry experts. Topics include fiction and documentary filmmaking, TV writing and production, and navigating and succeeding in the entertainment industry.
Finding the right music for a film involves a creative journey taken together by the director and composer. What makes for a successful collaboration? Join composer and Director of the Sundance Film Music Program Peter Golub and several guests in a three-hour Master Class to investigate the creative process of music and film. This is an essential Master Class for any composer, director or producer seeking best practices and shared language for collaborating to serve the story’s soundscape.
Topics presented will include:
- How composers “read a film” and make specific choices as to tone. Examples are shown and discussed that highlight different approaches and styles.
- Discussion with a guest composer to take a deep look at the process.
- Steps in the life of a film score; discussion with a music editor.
- The use of sound beyond the music; discussion with a sound designer to uncover the many ways in which sound tells the story of a film.
