Music for Radio, Film and TV


Star Bucks Glen Glen Glen




Eye of the Tiger

Listen to the two versions of ‘Eye of the Tiger’ and comment on the atmosphere created in each example, refer to Tone Colour, Dynamic and Expressive Techniques in your answer.




Starbucks
Rocky
·      Different atmosphere created due to change in lyrics and context
·      Comical lyrics used to create humour
·      Same melody used with words that fit well with it.
·      Punchy sound also creates humour, as it’s unexpected.
·      Film clip also shows humour with unrealistic locations (bathroom, bus stop etc.)
·      Characters costuming is also humorous
·      Character expressions showing emotion that the song creates (the main character Glen can’t hear the band and continues with life as usual) This is funny because of the fact that he is unaware.













·      Guitar creates anticipation
·      Seriousness
·      Short clips changing to the bass drum beat
·      Fast paced
·      Climax of song (chorus) coincides with the climax of the clip being the main boxing scene
·      Rock band
-       Bass Guitar
-       Electric Guitar
-       Drum Kit
-       Keyboard
-       Tambourine
-       Cheering
-       Fireworks
-       Tenor Male Voice
·      Beginning of song creates tension, suspense and excitement. Beginning scenes show cheering and relate to the song.
·      4/4 time signature structure. Repeated pattern keeps the mood of excitement going.
·      Slowly reaching a climax in the song (ascending melody)
