When rolling a decrescendo, he moved from the center of the drum out and the rolls became slower as he got closer to the rim. I also thought it was interesting that he used traditional grip when rolling on the bass drum. It made sense because of how the drum was turned, so it was definitely more practical than match grip. When watching…

when more instruments get blended it gets both louder and the melody gets higher. The meter was really hard to measure in this kind of music. The dynamics were little louder.

The violin is the smallest and highest-pitched member of the string family. It is held under the chin…

The sequence that I will be analyzing is the opening of the movie 8 ½ (1963) directed by the great Federico Fellini. The 8½ opening sequence uses specific panning shots and the element of sound to depict fear and pressure in the most thought provoking ways possible.
