Music can make or break a piece. In this tutorial Tim McLaughlin discusses musical choices, when to insert music, when not to, and what its role is. Music is often used to suggest an emotion, mark the start of a new point in the narrative arc, or to bring drama to a scene that might otherwise be dry. The tutorial aims to help you understand when to use music, how to select it, and provides examples to demonstrate our philosophy on music.
