Also, Steiner get together with other composers to develop the unique ways to synchronize music with film, which called "click track". Moreover, Steiner brings the idea …show more content…
Autistics in order to create various artistic form and bring more entertainment form, they put lots of efforts to perfect and optimize. Some movie might have a series of extension. For example, the Moive "King Kong" at different time has been given different life.

Another memorable scene in terms of music was in Edwards Scissorhands, when Edward is cutting the ice sculpture as Kim dances in the ‘snow’ that comes from the pieces that he cuts off. The music gives off a dream-y feeling. Tim uses music and composition to add extra feeling to an exciting scene.
When the inventor died in Edward Scissorhands there was music that projected a sad mood. This helps the audience connect with the movie more and intrigues the audience more.

Thus, the film makes extensive use of modern music techniques in the language of music, have such as a luxuriant sound compact sound experiments in the science fiction movie, in order to set a unique style.
Over the fifteen weeks of the first semester of film school, we were taught many interesting types and styles of early world cinema which were extremely informative and influenced the filmmaking style of the whole class and made us better filmmakers instantly. One such ‘ism’ which inspired me the most was German Expressionism which is a unique characteristic of Weimar Cinema. In this essay I am going to talk about the history of this ‘ism’, its impact on cinema, some significant works and how it inspired me and influenced my filmmaking style. German Expressionism is one of the earliest artistic genres to influence filmmaking, and one that ostensibly prepared for some other cutting edge artistic styles and techniques. It is an artistic genre

Like a gothic mastermind, Tim Burton incorporates dark, grotesque, child-like themes in his cinematic style. A director’s cinematic style is how their film is recognized and the techniques in their films to give their work value. Tim Burton is known for his unique cinematic style that has made his films one of a kind.

During the scene in Charlie and the chocolate Factory when Charlie won the last golden ticket and he was running home there was non-diegetic happy and exciting music playing in the background.
