By Brenda Warner


Musical sound can serve several purposes which are either essential on the emotional aspect of the movie or enhance matters to do with storytelling. It is very essential for any movie director to keep musical aspect in mind as they plan the movie. The following is a comprehensive overview about the role of science fiction music in movies.

Tones are useful in putting judgment to specific movie scenes. It does depict that a particular fighting scenario is heroic or maybe a dialogue is saddening. In the initial days of movie making, the task of musical tones was majorly supposed to remark on images. In current day, many think of this as a feature that is irritating but if it is utilized skillfully it does aid in taking the audience towards the proper course.

Songs can also work very well in establishing a specific period. Musical sounds which are baroque take people back to the 18th century although references could be subtle. Flashbacks of decades ago for example are in most cases well supported by use of a musical style which relates to the time depicted in the film and thus ensures the flashbacks are more understandable.

There are tunes used to bring scenes together. A previously harsh scene is able to become a rather soft one by simply incorporating certain tunes. It is furthermore useful in expressing different feelings of actors. A neutral look can take on different emotions and this is achieved by use of musical sound. The audience also experiences the same depending on tunes used.

Doubtful content can actually be taken to the right direction. This has to be used very cleverly. A good example is when a character is thought of as a good guy but in real sense is the villain. But in such a case this only gets revealed towards the end. As the movie goes on, the audience may at times figure out that he/she is actually the villain but sound tracks could be used in making you think otherwise.

Musical sounds are important in bringing out the notion that an issue is wrong. Such artistic power is wonderful in situations such as when dialogues sound neutral but not matching the chat which is going on. Along the same lines, creepy sound tones as such scenes proceed introduce a feeling of things not being right.

Songs have the power of strongly influencing whether a scene is to turn out serious or laughable. It is able to use this ability to portray nature of a character or a certain situation as the movie plays on. A very simplified example is a character who is pretending to be evil but on the other hand due to the sound tones, he/she is portrayed as one who is not evil.

Musical compositions take on very many functions in the making of films. The functions are in real sense inexhaustible for the reason that songs remain versatile and by so doing being able to play a number of roles. The aforementioned are some of the most essential purposes songs play in movie making.
