Summary
Thus far, we have taken time to understand what film music and the film music industry are by touching on the history of scoring, what a spotting meeting is, what cue sheets are, and having a very brief look at delivering a score. We also reviewed the challenging aspect of conveying emotion through music to the audience, as well as the character qualities and skills that are expected of a film composer.
In the next chapter, we will be looking at film scoring terminology, as well as how to use film and music components when scoring to picture.
