How to create the sound of Joy!

This lesson Tiny bells In this lesson, you create moods using delicate rhythms. The sound of repeating bells can create a mood such as "joy". Using other instruments of the symphony orchestra, we can get other moods (such as "in a hurry") with delicate repeating patterns. That is all we do in this lesson.

Overview of film scoring This lesson is the second of three lessons in film scoring for non-musicians (filmmakers). 1. Creating music with individual notes. In the previous lesson, we learned that by using symphonic instruments in GarageBand, we can create many different moods with just a single note. 2. Creating music with rhythm. In this lesson, we will learn that we can create moods with tiny rhythms. 3. Creating music with melody. In the next lesson, we will learn to create moods with simple melodies. Someday soon... Hopefully, soon, this lesson will be greatly expanded with lots of examples. For now, please go ahead and try it.
