IT'S ABOUT VISION

Music is a huge element in any production, be it a film, a series, an advertisement or a game - because it can grab the viewer's heart and evoke emotions that are very important. Such music created exactly for productions is called musical score. However, no musical score can be created without a clear vision of the director, resp. filmmaker. Vision is like GPS. If we clearly give it a goal, it will lead us there. This means that when composing music, what we want to say about the music is extremely important.

WORKING WITH MUSICIANS

It is always a unique and great experience. The musicians add a piece of themselves to the song and enrich it with their inner feelings and emotions, which can never be achieved with samples.

Sensuality and attention to detail is a basic pillar for successful cooperation.

I like to experiment and I am open to new possibilities. My door is open for new talented people.

What Score to Choose?

First and foremost, it's about your idea of music. Music in a film, in an advertisement, or in a series, or in a TV spot should enhance the viewing experience and at the same time not disturb it in any way. There are no limits to creativity. Creativity should not be limited by the budget, because the creative process arises in the head.

The most common question is - how much will it cost? We have a variety of options in this industry. The price is moving. The price can be € 400 or € 100,000, depending on exactly what you want.

It depends on how many musicians and people needed for the project will take part (assistants, orchestrators, sound masters, studios) and how long it will take to complete it. We have more options to choose from.

Orchestral score. If we were to record a live orchestra or soloists who would always give the song a piece of themselves and their energy.

Synthetic Scores is where plug-ins and various electronic sounds are used instead of live instruments. Don't be afraid to use electronic music at all. I use it almost all the time. You can listen to music from the projects I have worked on in the Music section. Personally, I prefer to combine variations of live instruments with electronic music.

Orchestral Score

(Suitable for more classic projects set in the past, or superhero films or documentaries). For orchestral music, it's about involving either a live orchestra, or for smaller budgets, it's about imitating the orchestra with plug-ins so that they sound almost as good as a live orchestra. I deliberately use the word "almost" because the sound of a live orchestra will never replace sample libraries and plug-ins by the meaning of sound and realism because the amount of passion that players put into it.

Hybrid Synthetic Score

(Suitable for modern projects, where it is more a question of what the resulting "SOUND" will be. Also suitable for TV spots or commercials. It is suitable for all types of moods. It is the maximum use of electronic effects in various forms, variations, rhythms and atmospheres that are used to associate with orchestral elements or soloists.

How does it work?

The procedure is simple

Vision

The first meeting in person or online via zoom, in which we discuss the vision of how you imagine the music in your film, series or commercial, or other project, what kind of film can be made, whether the idea is more of an orchestral score (music), or synthetic (electronic) using plug-ins, or hybrid using both options. Given the budget you have set aside for music.

Composing Music

After understanding your vision, it is time to compose the music itself. The ideal time to start composing is already at the beginning of planning the whole film (project) after the script is completed. Every detail about the story and characters is important, because I will try to create a parallel story musically that the director wants to express by creating musical themes that are interconnected.

Revision

During the composition, we will have regular reviews where we will say whether the music expresses the emotion we want to express in the story according to the vision and how the music sits under the video. We will talk about what other adjustments need to be made so that everything is excellent.

Recording live instruments

After completing the composition of music through sample libraries that mimic the sounds of real musical instruments, such as in an orchestra, if we agreed in the initial phase of the vision that they will be exchanged for live instruments, the finished score will be sent to an orchestrator who will transcribe it into a notation then record the final music live.

Final Music Mixing

After the final completion of composing the music and after receiving the recordings of the live instruments (if we recorded) we will proceed to the finals and that is the final mixing of the music. This means that I adjust the sound of each instrument to make it sound the best. I will achieve this, for example, by adding effects, but not so as to disturb the main dialogue.

Delivery

After mixing, I will prepare tracks for your sound master on the dubbing stage, where the final mix of the entire film (project) will be completed, including dialogues and sound effects, ie the final editing of the sound as it will be listened to in cinema, TV, mobile.
