Top Film Soundtracks and Scores

A gripping score has the ability to not only enhance the visual art form of film, but heighten the impact that the film has on its audience’s emotions. Making the score and soundtrack is a vital ingredient for every filmmaker to utilise.

Every film is a fragile construction, with every frame carefully built: the lighting, location, actors, and writing all conveying emotions. However any movie goer will know and understand the power which a good score or soundtrack has over them. Whether it leads them to being reminded of a scene from the film when they hear the song in another environment, or triggers the emotion intended when watching the film.
