Document Summary

Soundtrack music: a collaborative effort between director and composer. The 2nd of two creative components of film. A support mechanism for the visual content. A musical story with a beginning, middle, and end. As psychological triggers that provide perspective that may not be apparent by the visuals. The emotional puppet-strings; love, fear, tension, suspense, sadness, etc. Create a sonic/musical reference to a character and situations (ex. protagonist/good. Indicate a period, cultural setting, youth guy, antagonist/bad guy, love connection) Sadly- not to be noticed for what it is- music! Eulogy to the early days of the american frontier.

A what if of if this, then that scenario that represents the basis for the ensuing plot. A journey/quest that challenges the protagonist in ways that ultimately fulfil and shape them into the hero that the story requires.
