Batman Movie work: Mr. Smiths class

Monday 5th October 2009

Today we were told to complete the first section of this project. This part of the project is to complete a 40 second introduction to the film 'Batman 1989'. I had done parts of this so, Mr. Smith told me to go into my motif. Doing this, i will be considering my middle section as well. I have to think about, contrasts and opposites. For example: Fast-Slow, Short-Long, Major (CDEFG)- Minor (ABCDE), Loud and Quiet. Having this all in mind, I have thought about how i am going to put all of my music together.

I went back into Logic 8, where i have been composing my music and opened my NCFE saved file. I then went straight into completing my melody. Previously, we have been doing the background music, to our Batman intro, so once fully completed out melody, we can always go back into the NCFE file and change it up.

Today in Mr. Smith's class we had to put our music and the movie together, to make sure that they fit together. The music fits the scenery.

I wasn't sure what i was doing, so I spoke with Mr. Smith, and we both came up with the idea, with moving my music forward a few beats, so that when the names of the different stars come up my music changes slightly.

Today I completed everything. Once i thought i was done , i got Mr. Smith to check it over and make sure everything was in the right place and if any bits were missing he could fill me in. Once he told me what i needed to do i went straight into doing to and finished the whole thing in an hour. What i had to do was, make my motif a bit longer and add a few more instruments to make it more appealing and stand out more over my background music, so that it wouldn't fade into the back.
