composing.
He stressed the importance of viewing the musical score as another
actor. Sometimes it is the lead, sometimes it is a supporting
role, and sometimes it is an extra. All are very important to
the success of the film but all must be kept in their appropriate
place. John also covered the Relationship between Music and
Sound Design, and then got into the Technology and the Craft of
Orchestration. He went through various virtual instrument
libraries and taught us techniques for making the virtual
instruments sound like live players.
Thursday,
June 25th: Today we learned about orchestration.
John taught us about how each instrument is typically used, what
instruments go well together and which instruments do not go well
together. He also touched on the emotions each instrument can be
used to convey. After dinner we had a camp fire and made
doughies, a camp tradition.
