No Music! No Movies?

The case for musical linguistics.

No Music! No Movies?
Movie Pilot

Movies without music? I expect many have thought of this before, as what if there was no music played in the cinema productions or television premiers? Think about the tons and tons of captivating audiences loving a film piece because of the great soundtrack; the audience thinking about the soundtrack making the film famous.

The wonder behind the productive scenes allure an interest to discover musical pieces cascading their roles. Notes and scales for a creature to softly persuade the viewers. Moreover, the movie industry and TV series productions do depend on music to explore the feelings in all of us. How it is easy to love what you feel rather than what you see. It subdues listeners to the bottom of the ear pyramid. Four levels indicating different phantom sound waves to understand our comunication. The first level is talk. Humans have the desire to write speeches, debate and ridicule. It is our very nature to establish a unique tongue. The second level is silence like the ability to reason through critical thought. Once a person learns to memorize language and rhythm, it produces a voice to read and recognize patterns. Mostly in this level is critical thinking that which is beyond what we can still understand. The third level is sound. Evolution places this role to have waves and motion felt to us. We can determine the type of waves based on vibrations and rippled peaks. It holds a distinct sense to our survival but let alone creates our boundless mystery for this next coming level:music. This ear level has many particular places in the natural world. Animals have their own music but they have to communicate with this music in order to build a community. Humans seems to be the only species on the planet that does not have to talk through music. Rather, it is close to be called biophonic. The closer the notes are arranged to add speech and emotion, the closer to understand and overwhelm. So is there a reason why music is used more than the general appeal to feel? Music is not science but it does hold a special part for the brain to enjoy. The role for music used in television series and movies are vastly important to all audiences. Despite the call for music to progress flambountly, a minority rejects music in their productions. Why do sport a remarkable caudual form of nature for humans to communicate? The endless boundaries of language seek out to grab this secret code. Systems which can help unlock these speech notes. A person who says this music speaks to me with no lips but notes! It is a dire need to propose a theory about these speech notes that reveal human thought and feeling.

Silent movies are the first to demonstrate how music draws attention to an audience. Picture it! You can't hear the sound of the actors yet the are speaking. Such confusion except you can suspend the action to wonder why on earth this is intersting. The only thing to expect is the marvelous invention of movies and the music at the time. Most of the tunes during the period allowed bashful pleasures like vaudeville or ragtime. Not to discourage the amazing music featured in films like Modern Times but seems the movies in the very beginning captured whatever the public domain grew interest in. The birth to favor the audience was now in the cinema instead of the concert halls. Well, the roaring spree of the talkies became popular ad I can say humans want to hear other humans speak. The most recent film is the Artist. This film playes ambivalent tempos and motivating classical scores on the background with a orthodox silent movie format. How was this movie drawn to the public after all it was acknowledged in the academy? I believe the director saw the same image that silent movies had a distinct role in cinema history as expressing more than speaking but emotion and wonder. It is not surprising humans wants this special reaction but how does the movie industry with its music scores connect us? Why should we have music in a movie or television series when clearly humans want to hear the others? The factor is music drives another communication for people. The listener has something to grasp and witness the wonder of the cinema topography. Why there is yet this unique gravitated musical language that welcomes new viewers.

As far as what you can tell is this aesthetics study requires deeper thought. If language is distinct in our society then where does music play in this role? Generally, the theory is music reacts in our speech patterns. Even though these patterns are bombarded with endless syncopation, it does hold a stress and untreated accents inside many words. Music does use the case of accents in scores as well. Accents which can be spotted with closer hearing and seeing proves this theory how musical speech notes are present. Take any word and say it to analyze the accents. I dare for all to share it. A remarkable thing is singers have to adjust to this problem. Most singers are comfortable with certain sounds alone and accents. Dependent on how their voices are, it will take a lot of effort if there voice did not obtain these speech notes. If singers knew about this dilemma, then surely regular speakers have found music within their speech. I don't honestly have the answer but want to start exploring this great mystery.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

These powerful lyrics remind us how much good is inside each of us and that sometimes we are too blinded by our imperfections to see the other side of the coin, to see all of that good.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

The song was sent to me late in the middle of the night. I was still awake enough to plug in my headphones and listen to it immediately. I always did this when my best friend sent me songs, never wasting a moment. She had sent a message with this one too, telling me it reminded her so much of both of us and what we have each been through in the past couple of months.

What's your sign? It's one of the first questions some of us are asked when approached by someone in a bar, at a party or even when having lunch with some of our friends. Astrology, for centuries, has been one of the largest phenomenons out there. There's a reason why many magazines and newspapers have a horoscope page, and there's also a reason why almost every bookstore or library has a section dedicated completely to astrology. Many of us could just be curious about why some of us act differently than others and whom we will get along with best, and others may just want to see if their sign does, in fact, match their personality.

Being a good person does not depend on your religion or status in life, your race or skin color, political views or culture. It depends on how good you treat others.

We are all born to do something great. Whether that be to grow up and become a doctor and save the lives of thousands of people, run a marathon, win the Noble Peace Prize, or be the greatest mother or father for your own future children one day. Regardless, we are all born with a purpose. But in between birth and death lies a path that life paves for us; a path that we must fill with something that gives our lives meaning.
