Whether creating, acting in, or watching a movie, play or television show, the soundtrack is always an important and integral part of the process. Generally, science fiction music is often instrumental with some using live orchestras and sound effects either on stage or during the filming process. One of the key factors is that all sound associated with a production flow with the characters, plot and story.
Classes, schools and tutorials offer coursework in creating different types of sound which is best suited each type of science fiction production. While some offer robotic sound design, others offer programming which can be used as part of a soundtrack. Others provide musical training on various instruments.
Earlier examples of orchestral work would be "Star Wars." Whether science fiction movie, play or television show, most include various artists and songs. Generally, each of these add key elements with regards to communicating fear, mysticism and suspense to viewers.
When it comes to creating the right sound for a project, there are a number of considerations. One being that the soundtrack set the pace for the dramatic events involved in the story. Any vocals being used as part of a soundtrack should not be of a story telling nature. Sound designers need always consider the age of the audience in order to create a soundtrack with which the audience can relate.
When vocal tracks are used, it is important that the songs do not tell a story different from the production. Otherwise, the audience may get lost in the music and miss key elements of the production which relate to the overall story line and plot. When it comes to productions for children, there is more freedom to use material which aids in telling a story along with the various characters, whether animated or otherwise.
Depending on the quality and size of a theatrical production, movie or television show, various thought should be given to the familiarity with different artists associated with the production. In most cases, it is best to use musicians with recognizable names of artists and well known titles. This is because musical artists and the music associated with a production can often have as much a draw as well known actors.
When it comes to the animated science fiction genre targeting viewers of a younger age, it is important to use music which entertains youth. It is also important such music be age appropriate. Whereas, adults generally tend to respond better to instrumental soundtracks associated with movies which include adult themes and plots.
The most important aspects are that the music is in alignment with the story, plot and characters. When it comes to Science Fiction, often it is good to use both sound effects and music for more dramatic experience. Otherwise, the audience may have difficult connecting with the film, play or television show. Whereas, when music provides a great backdrop, audiences often find the soundtrack to be a magical part of the entire experience.
