The Sound of Fear: the use of music in horror cinema

Friday 17 February 2012 @ 6:00pm

Peacock Theatre

Peacock Theatre, 'Stranger with my face' film festival' 2012 long bannerSTRANGER WITH MY FACE FILM FESTIVAL

Talk with Composers Mark Buys (Drag Me to Hell) and Heath Brown (El Monstro del Mar!)

Music is important to all cinematic storytelling, but when it comes to the horror genre it’s critical. Why do some film scores thrill, terrify or unnerve us, while others leave us unaffected? Heath and Mark will show clips from selected films and discuss the music’s style and impact, and the overall approach in each example. Get the low down on selecting music and working with a composer on your horror film…from the composer’s point of view.
