Berklee Online Film Scoring Students Experience Professional Orchestral Recording with Budapest Scoring Orchestra<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

A lot can happen in 15 minutes. You become keenly aware of this if you\u2019re a student in Sean McMahon\u2019s Composing the Orchestral Film Score<\/a><\/em> graduate course. Recently the four students in McMahon\u2019s course participated in their first remote scoring session, where each student was allotted 15 minutes to work remotely with the Budapest Scoring Orchestra. On the other side of the students\u2019 speakers were more than 60 musicians performing and recording multiple takes of compositions that the students have been writing over the past five weeks. 
<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cI was really blown away at how the musicians in Budapest were able to make each and every element have its moment,\u201d says  Alex Spiers, one of the four Berklee Online students in the scoring session. \u201cIt speaks volumes about the difference between programming music and the value of real, live human beings playing music. The expressiveness is just something that you can\u2019t imitate and it was really cool to get to see that.\u201d
<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Spiers and his classmates have learned a lot about the value of working creatively with real, live human beings over the past two semesters. The four students have struck up a friendship as they have gone through Berklee Online\u2019s Film Scoring graduate program as the first cohort. Their fellowship spans generations: Spiers is a 28-year-old church music director in Chicago; Brett McCoy is a 54-year-old software engineer in Germantown, Maryland; Francesco D’Agostino is a 23-year-old music assistant in Naples, Florida; and Scott Gordon is a soon-to-be-retired high school band director in Richmond, Virginia. 
<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cEach one of us has learned so much from each other,\u201d says Gordon. \u201cWhenever any one of us has something to say, we\u2019re always very constructive, and if we have a suggestion, we\u2019re really working for each other\u2019s excellence as much as our own.\u201d 
<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Clockwise, from top left, Spiers, Gordon, D’Agostino, and McCoy have formed a tight bond via their Zoom “pregame” sessions. <\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n

In addition to their scheduled class times, the four classmates meet on Zoom to do what they call a \u201cpregame,\u201d where they hype each other up before the week\u2019s Live Class, and give each other constructive criticism on their music. Going into the session with the Budapest Scoring Orchestra, this same camaraderie continued.
<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cDuring the session, as soon as someone would finish, we would just kind of hop on and congratulate each other\u2014it was definitely just kind of a love fest, helping to encourage each other and helping with the nerves,\u201d says Spiers. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

The students all listened on their computers as the orchestra performed their 90-second compositions. After the first runthrough, the students typed directives to the conductor, and the orchestra gave it another shot, altering their performance according to the students\u2019 suggestions. D\u2019Agostino was the first student to watch and listen to his work being performed. To relay feedback, the students communicated over instant messaging, and after the orchestra finished that very first take, no words were showing up in the text box, radio silence for a minute.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cWe were just trying to get the hang of it, trying to gather our thoughts,\u201d explains D\u2019Agostino. \u201cIt was a mix of going from the mock-up to listening live and just trying to figure out where stuff could be a little bit better and just wording it all through text. So it was just both of those things together, and that was a little bit overwhelming. It took me a little bit of time. But once I got into the groove, I was just rolling.\u201d <\/p>\n\n\n\n

McCoy recalls one of the more rewarding moments of the session: \u201cI was looking at the cello players because my piece has a lot of low strings doing very rhythmic stuff and one of the cellists was headbanging.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

While the session was full of both nerves and excitement for the students, they all seem to agree that the course had fully prepared them for the opportunity and helped with their successes. <\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n

\u201cWe were well-guided to be very well-prepared for the event,\u201d says Gordon. \u201cI think everyone, from Berklee to us as students, were wanting this to be a superior performance. And so, we were given very clear step-by-step instructions to make sure we covered all the details.\u201d <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Instead of using preexisting films to score, McMahon wrote scenes for films that don\u2019t exist: one was a chase scene from a movie he called Dirty Cops<\/em> and the other was a dramatic battle scene from a film he called Lunar Threat<\/em>. He says because rights clearances are often tricky, it made more sense to make up the films so that the students could write pieces befitting big summer blockbuster types of movies.

\u201cIt gave me a chance to create a scene where they could do something big and theatrical,\u201d says McMahon. \u201cBecause if you have an opportunity with an orchestra, you don\u2019t want them just to play drones. Sure, there are plenty of film music cues that use drones, and that’s fine, but this was going to be their calling card piece. I wanted them to have a great demo.\u201d
<\/p>\n\n\n\n

It\u2019s safe to say that the four students are satisfied with their demos. They now have professional recordings of their compositions for their portfolio. All of them say they\u2019ve listened to their tracks multiple times.
<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cI\u2019ve listened to it at least 100 times: Sometimes I just want to listen to it because it\u2019s so awesome sounding,\u201d says McCoy. \u201cIt was a life-changing experience.\u201d <\/p>\n\n\n\n
