Abstract
This project aims to provide an analytical discussion about creating my culminating experience project for the Scoring for Film, TV, and Video Games program: the music for the short video “Casa Llamada Tierra.”
This reflection includes the process of finding the project, analysing the video, and conducting research for musical and orchestration ideas. Furthermore, I detail the complete creative process, which encompasses composition, development of leitmotifs, orchestration, preparation of the Cubase session, and creation of the final mock-up. I also describe the recording and final submission preparation, including music preparation (score and parts) and the Pro Tools session.
The goal of this paper is to provide insights and inspiration for students and film composers. By sharing my experience, I hope to offer valuable ideas about the process of writing music for films and their narratives, as well as various types of media.
