Brian is a one-man film music curriculum! I use several of his videos in my music tech courses. He is the main reason why I don't use a textbook in those classes!
Normally they are double glazed and the inner window is slanted so that sound waves ricochet towards the ceiling rather than reflecting right back at the microphone or source of sound
Como se consegue escrever toda a música para cada um dos instrumentos e fazer com que tudo fique numa harmonia deliciosa de se ouvir? Fico deslumbrado com o trabalho que tudo isto deve ter. Só um génio como o Brian.
The talent of Brian Tyler has taken film composition to new heights. Gone are the days of Jerry Goldsmith and Elmer Bernstein, however, geniuses of their time, music today is becoming more and more transparent.
First, he is great at explaining his process. The only other film composer who is even vaguely similar is Hans Zimmer. Second, that is purely your opinion, and you are entitled to it. Though his music is less theme-based than, say John Williams or any of the other "old-school" composers, I love his "grooves." As a brass player, I'd love to play in one of his scoring sessions. He is also brilliant at explaining his integration of Pro Tools (in other vids), the software we use here at CSU-Pueblo.
Not always. These days writing before shooting has even started is becoming a regular practise. Why? Composers like to do that so they wouldn't fight with temp music in the future. This is a composer's nightmare, there are tons of stories about frustrated composers, constantly being told to 'mimic' musical ideas director and editor put into movie before he/she even saw rough cut of it. Two of the most legendary is about Williams, who's constantly being accused of rip-offs from classical music, especially in Star Wars, while all he did is composed music similar to what has been put in an editing room and favoured by director. Another story is Space Oddysey, where director scored whole movie with his selection of classical pieces and then decided to let them stay, as it was 'his creation', nonsuprisingly fitting his taste the most. Whatever composer brought to put against the picture, it lost with Kubrick's stuborness :) As a composer (not even close to Hollywood level, but still!), I can say another thing about pre-composing - it has great influence on director and the whole team, if he/she/them are willing to, for example, play the tunes during shooting, brakes, or simply at night when director thinks about the movie (or a play, in my case mostly). It can set a mood and if the director liked this pre-score, he/she will be very happy and sometimes even inspired by it. So will be editors - their work will become more cohesive with predicted final product and they won't have to scroll thru random selections of music to put against the picture - they have bits ready to be put ;) And, of course, composer is happy - it is very great to know, that on some level you were co-creating the movie on a conceptual level, not just simply making music in post-production. Really great feeling! And, in the end, working earlier pays off in post-production - if you already had some of cues written, filling the rest with custom-cut music is much easier, fun and less stresful. But this works only when a director has clear idea, what he/she is doing, what 'mood' is needed for the movie, how it'll be cut and so on. Sometimes director is too lost or simply busy to think about the score in advance. Then you have to go old school :) But still, if you have some free time, it's always a good idea to have some cues ready in advance! Cheers!
great great stuff, and a very handy guy. The only bad thing is the quality of the video\audio. Ok, not pretending a 1080p 5.1 documentary, just some more quality in the audio, like just adding an output recording when he plays the magic play button on his machines. big up, anyway.
Well at least from what I know and heard is that there were actually many cases where the orchestra players are fed up when composers want them to sound like their digital mockup. I am working myself in the business as a composer and know so many composers who are having no clue about the natural dynamics and charateristics of orchestral instruments and treat the orchestral players often with no respect which results in the orchestra dismisses the composer. Ecspecially in film music market that happens quite a lot. Not to mock on B. Tyler as a composer in general.
Theres a lot of of other factors your glossing over. A lot of orchestral players would rather be playing clasic symphonies or chamber pieces or maybe fancy modern orchestral stuff, buuuuuuuuut its the film/tv music stuff that pays the orchestras bills. Aint the composers fault. I do get that a lot of inexperienced composers might get in the trap of writing to their sample packs, but in these big productions theres usually arangers/copyists on hand that actually do know their craft and will be fixing bad scores at the copyist stage
Similarly, many composers don't want to write that kind of stuff and would rather be writing more high-brow music, but it's what is required by the director - and everybody has to make a living.
I always love watching these type of interviews on the film composing process. Tyler is one of my composing inspirations.
Brian Tyler fully reflects the power of music!!
Wish the camera had an internal mic into the system so we could hear a lil bit clearer.

Brian seems to have a very intuitive and interesting way of coming up with ideas. Very inspiring!

Brian always add your commentary ! i love how you explain everything! great music man!
Such a cool, talented and relaxed guy.
Brian Tyler also did the score for the TV series _Riverdale._

The string idea that skitters at 5:09, works because it sounds like a car skidding to a stop. Tire screeches.
Good Job.
From Brazil!!!

Excited to see how he will compose the music for Iron Man 3 :)
He did a fantastic job dude!
Hey what's the actual track he plays drum at 1:08 ?
Go to Brian Tyler's page and find Fast Five.
BryanNguyenComposer Yes thank you
so cool! this guy is a genius. listening to his latest masterpiece the assassins creed 4 ost
Talented !
when i'm 36 i wanna be like Brian. oh wait I already 37.
I excuse want to ask you. Do you compose music before filming the movie or after filming and I saw him ??

REALLY GOOD
very nice...
Check out my renditions of Partition & Timeline!
What is the name of the book ? Could I learn from it?
Cool! Its similar to the way I did some work. But I don't have a real orchestra....yet
Cool video! Cheers!
Really Cool!))
The guy is a Genius
what software?
Великолепный композитор!
Great **********
Brian Tyler kinda reminds me of Rick Grimes from The Walking Dead.
A tip is to fix the audio of the video, it scars my ears. But other than that its fine. Brian is great though.
BRIAN TYLER knows how to play 18 or 19 instruments.
Oh my gosh I see it! Haha
@vovochka80, he's not gay, trust me.
lol
The musicians in the orchestra hate such composers.
Is that right? Why is that?
