Film Scoring introduces students to the relationship of music to the visual image. It enables students to plan, time, compose and orchestrate music for dramatic and documentary films and television programs. It emphasises the psychological implications of applying music to film and provides students with a knowledge of the mechanics of synchronisation. Film Scoring fosters: skills in analysing film scores; skills in scoring techniques such as click tracks and picture recording; skills in sound-film synchronisation and timing procedures; and an understanding of the relationship of music to the visual image.
