Images and dialogue can tell a compelling story, but music in film immerses the viewer directly into an emotional state. In this workshop film composer and multi-instrumentalist Craig Eastman will include live playing and a bit of technology to illustrate and identify musical elements, and how they are used by top Hollywood composers, directors, and music editors use in the process of scoring films. Craig will touch on ways the film maker can combine music and technology, plan a music budget, as well as how to communicate with a composer or music editor to the best advantage.
