Comments on my learning journey
My musicHighlight your rating For my Horror soundtrack I composed a
simple theme then made that into an ascending sequence or sometimes an ostinato. For the actions points I used chromatic movement mostly.
My creative choices and decisions including my use of
composition and music concepts.

How well have I experimented with and
developed my musical ideas?
Very good I used the short film as a stimulus for my soundtrack to follow and from there thought about the tempo, tonality, timbre, dynamics and pitch of the music.

How effective and imaginative is my music?
Very good I timed my action points so that it fitted with what was happening in the film. I could have perhaps thought a bit more about varying my ideas instead of just using chromatic notes but it still worked well.

Does it make musical sense/convey my intentions?
When the soundtrack was added to the film it made sense and was really effective. When it was a creepy bit I made sure the music was quiet and appropriate.
What I would do differently next time and why?
I would try and think about what instruments went well together as a group instead of random instruments.
