Music Lecturer:
Maria Boua comes from Greece, armed with classical music studies, she has composed music for a series of short animation films, fiction (Lotus, 2022), documentaries, modern dance music, theater music, advertising music, music for poems, and video art. She has directed her own documentaries (L' art de mains, 2022). Her latest music contribution to an animation short, 'The Christmas Present' (dir. Kostas Kakarountas, pr. Dahouse Films) currently travels in the festival circuit.
“I write the music that is appropriate for each project (animation, etc) that I undertake but I need to find the balance that the music combined with the image has without falling short or exaggerating.“
Concept:
- How can we compose music score/sound for an animation or a Live-Action fiction film?
- What is the relationship between the image and the sound?
- How do we achieve the balance of music and image?
Project:
- Application with portfolio and project idea if appropriate.
- The workshop is addressed to filmmakers, students, musicians and interested media professionals and beginners.
- Previous knowledge not required
