Scoring With Opus: Supernatural Thriller

Watch Scoring With Opus: Supernatural Thriller, the second in our series of videos where we show you how to use the brand new Hollywood Orchestra Opus Edition, along with all of the instruments in ComposerCloud, to score scenes complete with sound design and dialogue.

Just in time for Halloween, resident EastWest composer Ryan Thomas will show you how to terrify your audience with your next soundtrack. We'll be going over scoring considerations that are unique to this genre, like how to use musical contrasts to emphasize jump scares and the importance of supporting an emotion with more subtle scoring methods.

You can find a complete list of all the instruments used in this video here: https://media.soundsonline.com/docs/s...

And of course, all of these instruments are available as part of a ComposerCloud subscription. Sign up today: http://www.soundsonline.com/composerc...
