Film Composition For A Level

Featured Replies

Hi, I came to this forum hoping to get some ideas for my A level composition. I need a video that lasts around 4 mins with a bit of scenic landscapes and action involved. Does anyone have any ideas of any videos that I could use?

Thank you :)

Is that the brief for your film score? I seem to remember them being a little more detailed than that, with hit points at time markers in the score which you were expected to co-ordinate the music with. To be honest I would advise just watching film and television to get some ideas. At A-level they're not loooking for anything blindingly original; rather you should just demonstrate that you can write something that illustrates the required scene.

If you're struggling to find video footage for your course... maybe you could consider using some public domain footage. For example... how about Fritz Lang's Metropolis (1927), you could also check out the Prelinger Archives. These are a few examples of video footage out of copyright and in public domain. You can also contact other student filmmakers and animators. There's nothing better than starting to network.

Hope this helps! ;-)
