Josh Lucan and Reuven Herman dive into Alan Silvestri’s score to The Avengers. Together they look at four critical and diverse cues from the score, covering heroism (Avengers Assemble), grief (A Bird in Motion), action (The Bank) and grandeur (Helicarrier). Using our online interactive score player they’re able to isolate the soundtrack to the picture as well solo individual instruments. With Josh’s careful analysis and Reuven’s golden ears they dive deep into the harmony, themes and orchestration choices examining how Silvestri works so tightly to picture creating scale, heroism and emotional impact. This session unpack practical orchestration and composition techniques that you can apply directly to your own writing for a modern blockbuster.
