Full textAbstract:
Popular music and film are separate media, framed by specific discourses, histories of distribution and reception, semiotic relationships and literacies. Through these divergent manifestations and ideologies nodes of convergence exist. At moments of connection, new and innovative textual and contextual possibilities emerge, transforming the ways in which audiences both engage and read these media. Whilst often driven by capitalist goals, both popular music and film capture and tether personal expression and collective memory. Through these processes of signification, popular cultural texts belonging to both media forms are able to resist their commodified origins to inform and construct both collective and individual identities.
This thesis charts the movement of popular music across cinema. Rock'n'Roll is utilized not only as an amalgam of texts made up of sounds and images, but also as a critical and interpretative apparatus through which specific cultural identities are configured. This work is concerned with various manifestations of political resistance in popular culture, and the ways in which this resistance is moderated through cultural commodification. Using an interdisciplinary approach - converging film analysis, popular music studies and music journalism - this thesis constructs an ideological framework through which film and popular music can be aligned, and through which this alignment can be researched.
Through an engagement with myriad cinematic and popular cultural texts, executed through interdisciplinary methods, this thesis establishes a theoretical framework for understanding and analyzing the convergence of popular music and cinema. Its original contribution to knowledge is an evaluation of the ways in which these media are changed through their alignment and how they inform each other both structurally, as tangible manifestations of specific media codes and structures, and politically, in the ideological embodiment of particular identities and representational realities. This goal is achieved through the selection of specific research materials, especially those which have not been subject to detailed investigation in other scholarly studies. Specific filmic and musical texts are discussed because they embody the aesthetic and political synergy of these two media forms as well as demonstrating the cultural processes through which this synergy is enacted.
This thesis offers interdisciplinary dialogue as a valid strategy to understand the processes involved in the creation and reception of texts which are cinematic in nature but utilize the language and discourse of popular music. The textual and contextual manifestations of this process are a primary concern. Emphasis is placed on the implications for film form in terms of the structure of texts and their existence within specific genres, the shifting position of the auteur and the renegotiation of the term and its meaning to film and popular music, and the conjunction and interaction between creativity and commerce. In addressing the political and aesthetic possibilities of the film and popular music hybrid, as well as the cultural implications of their convergence, this thesis provides new perspectives for the analysis of both forms.

Mollaghan, Aimée. "The musicality of the visual music film." Thesis, University of Glasgow, 2011. http://theses.gla.ac.uk/3205/.
Full textAbstract:
This thesis explores the concept and expression of musicality in the absolute visual music film, in which visual presentations are given musical attributes such as rhythmical form, structure and harmony. The role of music has, in general, been neglected when analysing visual music textually and if discussed it has been examined predominantly from the academic vantage points of art and avant-garde film theory. To adequately scrutinise these texts I consider it essential to look at them not only in terms of their existence as moving pictures but also to give equal weight to their aural aspect and to consider them in terms of specifically musical parameters. This thesis therefore seeks to redress previous imbalances by undertaking a close analysis of the expressly musical qualities of these texts. Drawing on the seemingly disparate areas of film theory, art history, music theory and philosophy, it takes an interdisciplinary approach to investigating the measurable influence that wider contextual, philosophical and historical developments and debates in these areas bore on the aesthetics of specific visual music films. By drawing on the analogy of the absolute in music to demonstrate how musical concepts can function across the disciplinary boundaries of music and film, the first half of this thesis illustrates how musical ideas can be applied both formally and conceptually to the moving image in order to elucidate the musical characteristics of the text. Using the notion of the absolute as a conceptual framework allows for a thorough overview of changing trends and aesthetics in music, film and art and the visual music film. The centrality of notions of the absolute to visual music is demonstrated through close analysis of films by Viking Eggeling, Hans Richter, Walter Ruttmann, Norman McLaren, James Whitney and Jordan Belson. The second part of this thesis concentrates less on the philosophical vestiges carried over from musical thought to the visual music film, instead focusing on the variety of techniques and technological developments that evolved in tandem with the visual music film, each simultaneously exerting an influence on one another. It explores the effect that colour processing had on not only the visual but the overall audiovisual structure of the visual music film through a textual analysis of Kreise (1933) by Oskar Fischinger. It also investigates how particular styles of musical composition dictated the development of specific technical processes such as painting directly onto the celluloid strip, in order to capture the syncopated and frenetic musicality of jazz music. The case studies here are Begone Dull Care (1949) by Norman McLaren and A Colour Box (1935) by Len Lye. Further to this, it examines how the technical processes of animated sound emerged in the search for a greater correlation between the visual and sound tracks of the visual music film through close analysis of Synchromy (1971) by Norman McLaren and the optical sound films of Guy Sherwin. Finally, this thesis marries the inquiry into technological innovation of its second half with the historical, aesthetic and philosophical concerns of earlier chapters by considering the work of visual music pioneer John Whitney. Focusing on his digitally produced visual music films, the thesis explores Whitney’s enduring concern with the unification of sound and image through the shared foundation of mathematical harmony.

Full textAbstract:
Thesis (MPhil (Music))--University of Stellenbosch, 2011.ENGLISH ABSTRACT: This thesis represents an attempt to explore the use of metadiegetic film sound and its connection with qualities displayed by human physiology. Metadiegesis is chosen as the focus of this study, in order to point out the potential of film sound to be representative and not to slavishly imitate its visual counterpart. Therefore, because metadiegetic sound is deictic in nature, the first hurdle to clear was to navigate through a terminological minefield, allowing a clear glimpse of its true meaning and its connection with the filmic image. The researcher attempts to create hypothetical scenarios in order to analyse and discuss metadiegetic examples from films, convincingly utilised and less-convincingly so. The intention was to understand, clarify and disambiguate terminological uncertainties and inaccuracies. An exploration of asynchronous metadiegetic sound follows as refinement of the first step. This is done by resorting to existing examples in the form of extracts from films for demonstration purposes. As a result, the use of metadiegetic film sound is clearly defined and its use explained by attaching it to three concepts: a ‘story within a story’, external story space, and internal representation. It is argued that through these concepts, sound can be amalgamated with image to create a different realm, where sound and image tell more than an audio-visual story.
AFRIKAANSE OPSOMMING: In hierdie tesis poog die navorser om die gebruik van “metadiegetic” film-klank, en die verband wat dit met die menslike fisiologie hou, te verken. “Metadiegesis” vorm dus die fokuspunt van die navorsingstuk. Hierdie fokus beklemtoon film-klank se verteenwoordigende potensiaal, en die feit dat dit nie net ʼn slaafse nabootsing van die visuele aspek van film is nie. Aangesien “metadiegetic” klank dus deikties van aard is, is die eerste uitdaging om ʼn weg te vind deur ʼn terminologiese mynveld. Dit word gedoen in ʼn poging op ʼn duidelike begrip van die ware betekenis van “metadiegesis” te ontwikkel, en om die verband wat film-klank met die visuele aspek van film het, duidelik te maak. Die navorser poog in die eerste plek om hipotetiese scenario’s te skep om sodoende “metadiegetic” voorbeelde in films te analiseer en te bespreek. Die doel is om terminologiese onsekerhede en dubbelsinnighede te verstaan en te verklaar. Dan volg die verkenning van asinchroniese “metadiegetic” klank as verfyning van die eerste stap. Dit word gedoen deur gebruik te maak van film-uittreksels ter verduideliking van die bogenoemde stappe. Na aanleiding hiervan, is die gebruik van metadiegetiese film-klank duidelik gedefinieer, en die toepassing daarvan gekoppel aan drie konsepte: ʼn “storie binne-in ʼn storie”, “eksterne storie ruimte” en “interne verteenwoordiging”. Deur middel van hierdie konsepte kan klank saamsmelt met beeld om ʼn ander dimensie te betree, waar klank en beeld meer vertel as ʼn oudiovisuele storie.

Garwood, Ian. "Pop music and characterisation in narrative film." Thesis, University of Warwick, 1999. http://wrap.warwick.ac.uk/4263/.
Full textAbstract:
This thesis discusses the use of pop songs in narrative films, with particular attention paid to their role in characterisation. My argument concerns the potential for pop to retain its specificity as a certain type of music whilst it carries out functions normally attributed to a composed score. Many commentators have assumed that, because a song may be known before it is used in a film, its narrative meanings are "pre-packaged". I combine an appreciation of pop music's propensity to come to a film already 'known' with an attempt to demonstrate how individual narratives ask songs to perform different affective roles. It is my contention that pop music's quality of 'knownness' is fundamental to its narrative affect in films, without, however, pre-determining that affect. I argue my case through close textual analysis, discussing the relationship between real-life pop stars' musical personas and the film characters they are asked to play, as well as offering numerous examples of songs without an on-screen performer becoming involved in processes of filmic narration.

Seidel, Sebastian Martin. "A portfolio of compositions and an investigation into electroacoustic compositional techniques and aesthetics in cinematic film." HKBU Institutional Repository, 2014. https://repository.hkbu.edu.hk/etd_oa/98.
Full textAbstract:
The purpose of this study is to investigate the occurrences of electroacoustic content in and its relation to cinematic film. Key research questions include: What pioneering techniques and aesthetic positions used by creators of early electroacoustic music have found their way into mainstream cinema? Where and when have they been developed? In which films do they appear, and how are they distributed among film genres? The findings of this study assert the idea that many techniques that are part of sound design of contemporary cinematic film (the process and result of mixing and manipulating sounds) come directly from pioneers of electroacoustic music. Electroacoustic techniques and aesthetics play an important role in the history of sound film in making fundamental contributions to production processes, the relation between directors and sound makers, and film sound theory. On an aesthetic level, electroacoustic music in film has reformed the role of sound in film: a film score can contain 'noise', while speech and sound effects can actually serve as music. The findings also assert that electroacoustic techniques and aesthetics can be found in cinematic film from the beginning of sound film in the late 1920s. Once established, techniques have largely remained the same, regardless of the carrier media and their transformation from analog to digital: modern, digital techniques are refinements of their analog predecessors. Aesthetics have developed along with techniques, albeit much slower; their potential and exploration is far from being exhausted. The use of electroacoustic content for a particular element of film sound is not unusual and often genre-specific (for example in science fiction and thriller). However fully electroacoustic scores are rare. A portfolio of selected original compositions by the author complements this study. Acoustic and electroacoustic pieces for film and multimedia highlight different aesthetics, techniques and practices of film sound and film music.

Alexander, Helen. "Happy harmonies and disturbing discords : Scott Bradley's music for MGM's cartoons." Thesis, University of Glasgow, 2015. http://theses.gla.ac.uk/6809/.
Full textAbstract:
The musical scores of composer Scott Bradley for the cartoons of the Metro- Goldwyn-Mayer studio form the basis of this dissertation, which uses close observation and analysis to address some of the pertinent technical and cultural issues that have been raised in the literature of musicology and of cartoon studies. Bradley’s collaborations with three sets of directors are discussed separately in order to highlight three academic concerns. An investigation into the various practical necessities and cultural influences on Bradley’s work with directors Hugh Harman and Rudolf Ising sets the historical scene at the beginning of the composer’s career. I examine the pervading style of these cartoons and their music in order to reveal some of the personal preoccupations that Bradley’s work would exhibit throughout his life. And I interrogate the general musicological approach to the audiovisual pairing and cartoon scoring practices in order to re-evaluate close synchronization as a variegated technique capable of diverse and nuanced effects. Director Tex Avery and Bradley have independently been considered by various scholars for their adoption of modernist techniques. Their collaboration produced works that challenge the distinction of popular entertainment and modernist art, in a way that is shown to be both multifaceted and difficult to quantify. The position of their cartoons in terms of more frequently recognized modern artforms and its own tradition of slapstick comedy complicate any simple distinction between the two fields. The directorial team of William Hanna and Joseph Barbera produced cartoons that amalgamated some of the techniques learned from the other animators in this study. As well as being the most famous of MGM’s cartoon series, their Tom and Jerry cartoons were the most consistent in terms of style. The comic formula of this series is examined from the relatively new academic area of ‘comic timing’. I explore the possible effect of a constant musical presence on the audience perception of pacing and thereby add a new perspective to an aspect of comedy that has not before been considered with reference to music.

Duncan, Dean William. "Classical music in narrative film : strategies for use and analysis." Thesis, University of Glasgow, 2000. http://theses.gla.ac.uk/9082/.
Full textAbstract:
The present study deals with the use of classical music in narrative film, and some of the theoretical and historical considerations that can help us contextualize and understand that use. The following is a list of chapters, and a summary of concepts contained therein. CHAPTER ONE: After briefly considering some of the challenges of interdisciplinary scholarship, I will review the literature on classical music in the sound film. This review will touch upon the early (1930s and 1940s) commentaries of Kurt London, Hanns Eisler and Theodor Adorno, and John Huntley, and then pass on to a kind of concensus held between both commentators and composers of the 1960s and 1970s. Finally I will review the work of more recent film music scholars who, along with some others working in other fields, provide what I feel to be a more open model for understanding this kind of film music. CHAPTER TWO: Having reviewed the position of the film music community, this chapter will concern some responses of music critics to film music generally, and the appropriation of classical music in particular. I will outline specific complaints and criticisms, and attempt to show some of the broader socio-musical issues that motivated them. CHAPTER THREE: This chapter will consider the musical parallelism associated with traditional Hollywood-type narratives, and then concentrate on the oppositional model (derived from "montage" aesthetics) represented by Soviet and other modernist cinemas. I will deal especially with the influential "counterpoint analogy, " and consider how musical discourse can resolve some of the confusions that this analogy has habitually presented. CHAPTER FOUR: The last chapter will have presented a counterpoint based on musical principles as a possible analogy or metaphor for how film music works, and how its meaning and affect can be understood. This chapter is about the programme music tradition that prevailed in the nineteenth century. I will enumerate some of its sin-fflarities, musically and in terms of its critical reception by the music community, to film music. I will explore how programmes, or extra-musical narratives, are also central to understanding musical meaning, and to the use of classical music in films. CHAPTER FIVE: Here I will look more closely at montage, meaning, and classical music on film. A number of questions will be addressed. What are the interpretive strategies that most apply? How does musical meaning function in a film context, especially with regard to source music? Beyond classical music in general, what is the importance of periods, idioms, composers and specific pieces? What is the significance of the artist's intent? What about when the artist is not fully in control of his circumstances, or of his craft? What of phenomenology? All of these expansions obviously complicate the equation. Accordingly the concept of indeterminacy will be reviewed to suggest how both chance and control operate within musical montage. CHAPTER SIX: I will suggest and expand upon some of the extra-musical implications of this study. I will suggest some of the possibilities these raise for future research.

Thesis (M.Mus.)--University of Stellenbosch, 2006.ENGLISH ABSTRACT: In South Africa there has been an increase over the last few years in audio engineering courses which include modules of study in audio post-production or even offer audio post-production as a major focus of study. From an academic standpoint however, and despite the growth in the local film industry, very little study of this field has been undertaken in South Africa until recently. In 2005, a MMus thesis was submitted at the University of KwaZulu-Natal entitled Acoustic Ambience in Cinematography: An Exploration of the Descriptive and Emotional Impact of the Aural Environment (Turner, 2005: online). The thesis briefly outlines the basic components of the soundtrack and focuses on describing and analysing the properties of ambience, a sub-section of sound effects. At Stellenbosch University, research has recently begun in the fields of film music and Foley (sound effects associated with human movement onscreen). The purpose of this thesis is to provide an overview of audio post-production and the contribution of sound to the film medium. It provides an outline of the processes involved in creating a soundtrack for film and includes a description of the components of the soundtrack and recommendations for practical application.

In 2005 is ‘n MMus-tesis aan die Universiteit van KwaZulu-Natal voorgelê, met die titel Acoustic Ambience in Cinematography: An Exploration of the Descriptive and Emotional Impact of the Aural Environment (Turner, 2005: aanlyn). Hierdie tesis gee ‘n basiese oorsig oor die basiese komponente van die klankbaan, en fokus op die beskrywing en analise van die eienskappe van ambience – ‘n onderafdeling van klankeffekte. By die Universiteit van Stellenbosch is onlangs ‘n begin gemaak met navorsing oor die terreine van filmmusiek en Foley, d.w.s. klankeffekte geassosieer met menslike bewegings op die skerm.. Hierdie tesis beoog om ‘n oorsig te gee van oudio post-produksie en die bydrae van klank tot die filmmedium. Dit verskaf ‘n oorsig oor die prosesse betrokke by die daarstelling van ‘n filmklankbaan en sluit ook in ‘n beskrywing van die komponente van die klankbaan en aanbevelings vir die praktiese toepassing daarvan.

Full textAbstract:
This thesis explores the role that film genre plays in the construction of, predominantly, Hollywood movie scores. It begins with the simple assumption that each genre has its own set of musical conventions, its signature "paradigm", with the result that Westerns sound different from Horror films, which sound different from Romantic Melodramas and so on. It demonstrates that while this is broadly speaking so, the true picture is more complex, the essentially hybrid nature of most Hollywood films on a narrative level resulting in scores that are similarly hybrid in nature. To begin with, the various functions of film music are described, and that of generic location is isolated as being of key importance. The concept of film genre is then discussed, with particular reference to the notion of hybridity. The substance and sources of the musical paradigms of the Western, Horror film and Romantic Melodrama are described in depth; specific aspects of the War Film, Gangster, Thriller and Action paradigms are addressed more briefly. The thesis concludes with a cue by cue analysis of John Barry's score for Dances with Wolves (1990), demonstrating that while the dominant paradigm the music draws on is indeed that of the Western, the score also incorporates elements from a variety of other generic paradigms, shifts in musical emphasis that are dictated by the changing requirements of the narrative. Film music is shown to be profoundly influenced by film genre, but that the use of generically specific music is as complex and nuanced as cinema's negotiation of genre at narrative level. While genres do indeed have signature musical paradigms, these do not exist discretely, but in constant tension with and relation to one another.

Ahn, Soo H. "Metropolis : music score for the film directed by Fritz Lang ; Scoring Metropolis : the development of my compositional practice." Thesis, University of Huddersfield, 2017. http://eprints.hud.ac.uk/id/eprint/31449/.
Full textAbstract:
This commentary documents the compositional process of writing film music for the classic expressionist silent film Metropolis (Lang, 1927), using MIDI-based orchestral sound resources. Metropolis was chosen from within other possibilities, such as Battleship Potemkin or Nosferatu, not only due to the belief that the film’s surreal eerie mood and machine-like characters could be represented well by the Second Viennese School’s musical style that I intended to adopt, but also due to a judgment that leitmotivic transformation and use of themes as character links fit into a work so rich with characters’ showing subtle psychological states. I set out to compose an original orchestral score for Metropolis with the idea in mind, that film music should contribute to the audience’s integration with the drama and reinforcement of dramatic tensions by strategically supporting the film’s plot and narrative, and that an agreeable conceptual blending between film and music would be crucial to a successful composition. For this task, a thorough review of the leitmotif and related literature about music semiotics and meanings, together with a brief discussion of the MIDI sampler orchestra, proved to be necessary. Metropolis, a pioneering masterpiece of sci-fi, which contains a gloomy portrait of the futuristic world, encouraged me to experiment with the diverse possibilities not only of the leitmotif, but also of kaleidoscopic sound originating from various combinations of virtual instruments of the MIDI sampler orchestra and ultimately to show my musical process. The document traces the leitmotif as a primary compositional device for thematic manoeuvre in both film composers’ scores and major scholars’ discussions; it also incorporates current scholarly research about music semiotics and meanings, which has guided choices in each stage of my compositional process. I have revealed how I applied such lessons as Ennio Morricone’s microcell technique, Danny Elfman’s transformation approaches to thematic material, Howard Shore’s reflection of meaning onto music, and Ilan Eshkeri’s use of themes as character links to my Metropolis. I organized the main character’s associate themes using microcell and transformation techniques and contextualised them as character links. For instance, I produced tunes for cold-hearted characters, such as Rotwang, robot Maria, and high buildings, with the twelve-tone technique, poignant dissonances through interval-classes 1 and 6, recursive rhythmic patterns, or their combinations; I also adopted two distinct types of an octatonic scale to describe contrasting personalities of the two characters and a chord based on 2nd intervals to express the moment when Rotwang’s evil reaches its zenith. Metropolis serves not only as an artistic repository for numerous symbols, but also as a web of leitmotifs towards musical and filmic unity.

Franks, Daniel. "Jazz in Hollywood (1950s – 1970s)." Thesis, University of Southampton, 2015. https://eprints.soton.ac.uk/381456/.
Full textAbstract:
Serious jazz can be found in places where it is least expected, in mainstream Hollywood films. This thesis aims to demonstrate how film composers (such as Henry Mancini, Quincy Jones and Lalo Schifrin) challenged established conventions in the music and film industries between the late 1950s and the late 1970s. During this period, film composers were producing jazz for a global audience; their musical contribution is integral to our current understanding of jazz history. It is by viewing the history of film music through the various ways in which it is received (in music journals, performances, publications, recordings, films) that a new perspective on jazz history will be achieved. Giving focus to individual film scores, using detailed analysis and transcription, this thesis will highlight key moments in history that reveal how important film composers are to the story of jazz. With the study of journalistic and academic publications, it will also show how wider changes in American society were represented by jazz composers in film scores. Considering the history of jazz through the reception of Hollywood film scores enables new ways to define the genre. For instance, by taking into account the future performance life of a composition, this thesis will provide a new perspective on the fundamental characteristics of a jazz composition. These new ways to consider the genre demonstrate why film music should be included within the jazz-historical canon.

Laing, Heather Ann. "Wandering minds and anchored bodies: music, gender and emotion in melodrama and the woman's film." Thesis, University of Warwick, 2000. http://wrap.warwick.ac.uk/2320/.
Full textAbstract:
This thesis examines the role of music and cultural conceptions of emotion and `the feminine' in gendered characterisation in 1940s melodrama and the woman's film. Music in melodrama and the woman's film predominantly follows the late-19th century Romantic style of composition. Many theorists have discussed this type of music in film as a signifier of emotion and `the feminine', a capacity in which it is frequently associated with female characters. The full effect of an association with this kind of music on either female or male characterisation, however, has not been examined. This study considers the effects of this association through three stages - cultural-historical precedents, the generic parameters of melodrama and the woman's film and the narrativisation of music in film. The specific study of films involves textual and musical analysis informed by cultural-historical ideas, film music theory and film theory. Since female characters are more commonly associated with music in this context, they form the primary focus of the study. Male musical-emotional characterisation, while of constant concern, comes under particular scrutiny as the final stage of the study. In conclusion I argue that cultural assumptions combine with the formal representations of film to construct a model of gender based on the idea of `inherent' emotionality. As a definitive element of this dynamic, music functions as more than just a signifier of emotion. Rather, it takes a crucial role in determining how we actually understand emotion as part of gendered characterisation.

Full textAbstract:
This thesis aims to identify the extent to which popular music functionality in UK and US film can be regarded as a developmental process, and, in particular, the importance of the contribution of the 13-year period bounded by the films A Hard Day’s Night (Richard Lester, UK, 1964) and Saturday Night Fever (John Badham, USA, 1977) to this. It also explores salient cultural, historical and industrial factors which may have influenced development. Both these areas have been largely neglected to date. Within the period identified above, three key phases have been recognized which each contributed to specific innovations and developments. These have been labelled ‘The British Invasion Phase’, ‘The New Hollywood Alienation Phase’ and ‘The Disco Phase’. For each of these a primary film text (A Hard Day’s Night, The Graduate and Saturday Night Fever respectively) is analyzed in detail, with reference to the work of Claudia Gorbman and Jeff Smith on the principles of musical function in film. In addition, these chapters are prefaced by an examination of a further stage, ‘The Classic American Musical Phase’, covering a period of relative inactivity, in respect of developments in popular music function, prior to the ‘British Invasion Phase’. Examples of two of Elvis Presley’s films, Girls! Girls! Girls! and It Happened at the World’s Fair, are examined to illustrate why innovation was lacking at this time. As this thesis is not only concerned with what innovations occurred but also why they manifested specifically during a particular phase, individual chapters extend beyond pure film analysis into a study of crucial elements of cultural and popular music history associated with aspects of The British Invasion, New Hollywood and Disco.

Full textAbstract:
In 1951, Saul Chaplin, John Green, and Conrad Salinger adapted the music of composer George Gershwin (1898-1937) for a film musical titled An American in Paris, the finale of which was a 17-minute ballet scene set to a modified version of the composer’s tone poem from 1928. The plot bears broad similarities to isolated aspects of George Gershwin’s life. Such narrative elements offered a scaffold for an attractive subtext explored through the film score: a review of the trajectory and breadth of George Gershwin's compositional career from 1922-1937. My own analysis of the film and its score, using the techniques of Lars Franke, further illustrates how the creators of An American in Paris used the cinematic frame to comment on George Gershwin's life and to respond to contemporary critics as well as fans of his music.

Thesis (MMus)--Stellenbosch University, 2014.ENGLISH ABSTRACT: This thesis investigates the impact that a musical score can have on the visual component as well as the final product of a film. This is achieved by the use of a systematic analytical approach that covers the most important aspects of the visual and musical elements within Vertigo. The film is regarded as one of cinema’s greatest examples of excellence. The many levels of meaning, inspired use of cinematographic techniques, meticulously crafted narrative and dynamic score combine to create a film unlike any other. The analysis of Vertigo is achieved by selecting specific scenes that contain important visual and musical elements essential to the narrative. The visual and musical aspects of each scene are analysed separately before the relationship between them is studied. Following this, the results of the analysis are summarised within the larger context of the narrative and conclusions are drawn regarding the music’s influence on the visual aspects of the film as well as its role in the ultimate narrative success of Vertigo.
AFRIKAANSE OPSOMMING: Hierdie verhandeling kwantifiseer die impak wat ‘n partituur kan uitoefen op die visuele aspekte en eindproduk van ‘n film. Dit word bereik deur die gebruik van ‘n sistematiese analitiese benadering wat die hoofaspekte van die visuele en musikale elemente in Vertigo ondersoek. Vertigo word beskou as een van die filmkuns se beste voorbeelde van uitnemendheid. Die komplekse betekenisvlakke, die geïnspireerde gebruik vakinematografiese tegnieke, die uitmuntende storielyn en die dinamiese partituur kombineer om ‘n unieke film te skep. In die ontleding van spesiale tonele met visuele en musikale elemente wat ‘n noodsaaklike bydrae lewer tot die sukses van die storielyn, kan Vertigo analiseer word. Die visuele en musikale aspekte van elke toneel word eers individueel bestudeer voordat die verhouding tussen die elemente analiseer word. Daarna word die resultate saamgevat binne die raamwerk van die storielyn en kan daar tot ‘n gevolgtrekking gekom word oor musiek se invloed op die visuele aspekte van die film en die rol wat musiek gespeel het in die beslissende sukses van Vertigo.

Full textAbstract:
In order to reach a young generation diagnosed with \"nature deficit disorder\" and flooded with mass media messages from a myriad of channels, non governmental organizations (NGOs) and environmental educators need to embrace musical videos as a tool for conservation education. Rare Conservation is one NGO that utilizes music videos as an innovative technique to reach a younger audience in order to foster a sense of pride and concern for the environment in which they live. In 1992, RARE Conservation produced a music video for the song \"Quincy Rap\" by Tony (The Obeah Man) McKay. The \"Quincy Rap\" music video was one environmental tool in the overall campaign to save the endangered and endemic Bahamian Parrot. By analyzing the \"Quincy Rap\" music video, a guideline for creating persuasive music videos can be constructed. In order to analyze a music video, like \"Quincy Rap,\" it is best to take a multi-perspective approach, first dissecting the visual elements of the video then looking at the audio elements and then concluding with how the visual and audio elements intersect. By juxtaposing music video techniques with those found in other forms of video production, certain persuasive elements of music video production can be highlighted. This unique rhetoric of music videos can be utilized as persuasive environmental education.

Full textAbstract:
As a film composer, Bruce Broughton uses themes, motives, gestures, tropes, and other film composition devices; however, he is also able to develop them into compelling formal structures through the use of film composition techniques in his concert music. Traditional musical form is not necessarily applicable to film music. The film dictates the pacing and structure, whereas concert music allows for the creation of form and more complex musical development. Through his extensive experience composing in the film industry, Broughton instinctively uses his film composition techniques as a means to reach his audience with his concert music. He establishes a common ground through film score vernacular to draw the listener into a more sophisticated musical conversation. This is particularly evident in his extensive wind band catalogue. In this dissertation, I identify Bruce Broughton's film composition techniques and examine how he employs them to create a stand-alone form using those techniques in his wind band music. The film composition techniques that are examined include character association, character interaction, motivic snippets, programmatic associations, and musical tropes. These aspects are demonstrated as they influence form in three of his most frequently performed and highly acclaimed pieces for wind band: In the World of Spirits, Celebration, and Spacious Skies. Through the examination, Broughton's use of formal development through film composition devices is demonstrated.

Resumo: Um olhar atento para os eventos que compõe a trilha sonora da Trilogia da Morte de Gus van Sant: Gerry (2002), Elephant (2003) e Last Days (2005). Os materiais sonoros são tratados como um aliado, auxiliando na construção narrativa. De maneira geral, incorporam músicas de paisagens sonoras, cujos fonogramas originais são combinados aos demais elementos da banda sonora, resultando numa mixagem particular e surpreendente que impacta na montagem fílmica, nos processos inerentes e complexos do tempo, nas tensões sonoras internas compostas de timbres e no resultado cognitivo para o espectador. Esta pesquisa auxilia na compreensão do processo de sound design, surgido em meados dos anos 70, e que se estabelece nos dias atuais como forma expressiva de tratar os sons nos filmes
Abstract: A closer look at the events that comprehend the soundtrack of Gus van Sant's Death Trilogy: Gerry (2002), Elephant (2003) and Last Days (2005). These films use the sound material as an ally, which helps the narrative construction. In general terms, they make use of pieces of soundscape music, the original phonograms are blended with other elements of the soundtrack, thus producing a new and surprising mix that impact in the film montage, e.g. the inherent and complex time, the inner sound tensions made of timbres and cognitive results in the audience. This research helps to understand the sound design process, which appeared in the mid 70¿s and establishes itself in the present days as an expressive form to treat sounds materials in movies

Full textAbstract:
This research investigates the culturally programmatic symbolism of jazz music in film. I explore this concept through critical analysis of composer Terence Blanchard's original score for Malcolm X directed by Spike Lee (1992). I view Blanchard's music as representing a non-diegetic tone parallel that musically narrates several authentic characteristics of African-American life, culture, and the human condition as depicted in Lee's film. Blanchard's score embodies a broad spectrum of musical influences that reshape Hollywood's historically limited, and often misappropiated perceptions of jazz music within African-American culture. By combining stylistic traits of jazz and classical idioms, Blanchard reinvents the sonic soundscape in which musical expression and the black experience are represented on the big screen. My new work––Black Magic––is a musical response to the research found within this study. The through-composed piece is written in three movements for a studio orchestra. It is an homage to the musical, cultural, and entertainment contributions of African-Americans in the magical realm of Hollywood cinema.

Full textAbstract:
El llenguatge cinematogràfic és un llenguatge artístic i comunicatiu certament complex. El punt de partença del treball és que la presència de la música en els films defineix part dels mecanismes ontològics, narratius, expressius, dramatúrgics, psicològics o, fins i tot, històrics amb què el llenguatge cinematogràfic articula la seva diègesi. Es porta a terme una recerca entorn de l'estudi de la música present en el cinema, posant el focus en l'obra cinematogràfica que el director català Pere Portabella realitza en el període comprès entre 1967 i el 1976. Portabella, nascut a Figueres l'any 1927, desenvolupa la seva activitat com a realitzador cinematogràfic a partir de la segona meitat dels anys seixanta del segle XX.
Des d'un punt de vista sincrònic, la episteme de la "imatge contemporània" conjuga, en el seu si, la dualitat del valor icònic i del valor sonor i musical. Així, tot i que aquest treball estudia la música en el cinema, i la relació estètica i formal de la imatge i la música en el conjunt de l'expressió cinematogràfica, aquest és, també, un treball sobre la "imatge", en el qual es prova d'explicar aquest fet: com la música és un element que pertany als mecanismes de la construcció de la imatge moderna i contemporània. Aixi, hem procurat entendre i justificar com la principal construcció icònica del segle XX -la imatge que neix amb el cinematògraf, la imatge que capta, finalment, el moviment del món- adquireix i assimila una dimensió sonora i musical en el seu flux, en el seu camp epistemològic.
D'altra banda, des d'una perspectiva diacrònica, el llenguatge cinematogràfic ha evolucionat de manera constant durant el transcurs del segle XX i provem d'estudiar quin ha estat el paper de la música en aquesta evolució. L'anomenada Manera de Representació Primitiva (mrp), pròpia dels inicis del cinematògraf, es transforma en la Manera de Representació Institucional (mri), que s'expressa en el cinema considerat clàssic. A partir dels anys seixanta, quan amb l'eclosió a Europa dels Nous Cinemes la mri és posada en dubte, estudiem una nova concepció cinematogràfica anomenada "cinema de la modernitat" o Manera de Representació Moderna. És en aquest darrer període en què podem contextualitzar la proposta cinematogràfica de Pere Portabella en el període 1967-1976: en certa manera, Portabella inaugura la modernitat cinematogràfica a l'Estat Espanyol, subvertint amb el seu cinema els cànons del llenguatge de la mri. La nostra investigació procura atendre com Portabella articula aquesta subversió del llenguatge cinematogràfic a través de la música; és a dir, l'estudi des d'un punt de vista estètic, de com el cineasta situa la seva praxi artística als marges de la sintaxi imperant i quin és el valor que té, la presència de la música, en l'articulació d'aquesta proposta cinematogràfica moderna.
L'anàlisi del cinema del director català en la seva etapa 1967-1976, ens permet estudiar aquesta "imatge" en l'articulació moderna del cinema i atendre la seva relació amb la música en aquesta epistem que, en el transcurs del treball, anomenem "imatge musicada". Proposem aquest terme -"imatge musicada", entesa com a aquella expressió, aquell flux de vibracions i d'ones, de sons i de llum, que aglutina en el seu si la dimensió icònica pròpia de la (re)presentació visual i la dimensió sonora pròpia del llenguatge musical de la "imatge"-, per enfocar, d'una manera original i interdisciplinària, l'estudi de la "imatge" i la música en la construcció del llenguatge cinematogràfic modern a través de l'anàlisi dels films del director català.
Les característiques estètiques i l'evolució d'aquesta formulació epistemològica és el que aquest treball ha estudiat, investigació que s'ha concretat en l'anàlisi de l'obra cinematogràfica de Pere Portabella.

Resumo: Desde os primórdios do que entendemos hoje como cinema, já se fazia uso de intervenções sonoras. O acompanhamento musical era normalmente executado ao vivo, através de um pianista, um improvisador ou, as vezes, por uma pequena orquestra. Com o passar das décadas, o som para animação foi se transformando e assim, cada vez mais atrelou-se às imagens, se fundindo e unificando. Já na década de 1930, os desenhos animados formam um poderoso elo com a música, produzindo com isso, uma gama de cartoons musicados. Deste momento em diante, a trilha musical recebe a função de narrativa, sua articulação com a imagem cria um significado e possibilita a compreensão do espectador na história. A compreensão do som está associada ao acordo que existe entre o emissor e o espectador, quando este, em uma exibição, entra na sala para "ver-ouvir" uma história contada. O alicerce preeminente na projeção é a narrativa. Portanto, a trilha sonora, através do sincronismo, do seu uso de forma poética e também, através do uso de sons que de certa forma, já estão na memória de toda a sociedade ocidental, integra a articulação e a organização da narrativa na animação, compondo assim, um elemento de sua montagem. E desta maneira, a percepção fílmica é de fato audio-visual e permite numerosas combinações entre sons e imagens animadas
Abstract: Interventions with sounds are used since the beginning of what is known today as film. The music was performed live by a pianist, improviser or sometimes by a small orchestra. Over the decades, animation sound changed and became increasingly harnessed viii to the images, merging and unifying. Already in the 1930s, the cartoons are a powerful link with music, thus producing a range of cartoons set to music. From this moment on, the soundtrack gets the role of narrative, its articulation with the image creates meaning and allows the viewer to understand the story. Understanding of sound is associated with agreement that exists between the issuing and the spectator, when, in a view into the room to "see-hear" a story telling. The foundation is preeminent in projecting the narrative. Therefore, the soundtrack through the synchronization, the use of poetic form and also, through the use of sounds that somehow are already in the memory of all Western society integrates the speech and organization of narrative in animation, thus composing an element of its assembly. Sooner, the filmic perception is indeed audio-visual and allows numerous combinations of sounds and visual images
