Explore The Charm of Film music Sharing Session

Matthias’ composition workshop is structured as an interactive, open-ended creative environment and is divided into two parts. First, Matthias gave an in-depth introduction to the nature of film music and several key compositional techniques. Through these techniques, participants were able to experience the relationship between the music and the film’s narrative, and as Matthias mentioned, although most compositions are semi-conscious or unconscious, it is important to know the rules.

In the second part of the hands-on session, Matthias led the participants to make conscious compositional choices as they watched a movie clip and then thought about how they could enhance the emotional expression of the scene by composing 2 notes. For example, what emotion does the scene convey? What effect do they want to convey by adding music? As the workshop progressed, participants gradually found their own creative voice through interaction and communication with each other, and realized that in a film narrative, music is not a matching tone, but an extension of the narrative itself. This open creative environment allowed everyone to express themselves freely, and at the same time inspired a deeper understanding of music and film.
