How to Write SuperHero Music

Welcome to The Harmony of Heroes! I've spent the past 5-6 years working on Film, TV, and Videogames learning and exploring one of my favorites genres, Superhero Music! I had to ask myself, what gives Heroic Music its signature sound? I went through all of my personal projects, as well as popular films to find all the little tricks, secrets, and ideas that gives us that Bold, Exciting, and Heroic Sound! From the Animated Series of the early 90s, to the Expansive Big Screen Universes of Modern Day - this Course is Packed with Techniques that will launch you into that Super Sound! The Course is broken into individual sections covering ideas about Cinematic Progressions, Compositional Techniques, and Mock Up Breakdowns for an in-depth look at what gives this genre its action packed sound. Join me, not only to learn but to celebrate this exciting style of music!
