Building Drones Trailer Music Course – Richard Pryn

Create the ultimate tool for building tension in a trailer 

Do you ever think “this is far too simple to be any good?”…

One of the biggest struggles we face as composers and producers is our inner critic. That voice that often says stuff like, “that’s not good enough” or “why are you even bothering?” It’s this voice that unfortunately means you often overlook some of the most effective trailer music elements you could be taking advantage of…

• Deep down you believe simple=rubbish
• You think trailer music needs to be complicated
• You lack the confidence to embrace texture and timbre
• You struggle to create tension and build without drums/riffs/chords

What You’ll Learn In Building Drones Trailer Music Course

• Introduction to Building Drones
  In this module I introduce you to the course and explain what you will be learning. We then dive into some references of trailers that have used building drones really successfully. This all lays the foundation for creating your own drone tracks.
• How to make your own drones
  One of the fun part of drone music is to create your own. I show you various different ways to create your own awesome drones; recording them, using software to stretch the samples, generating them etc.
• Track Walkthrough
  I think it is incredibly valuable to see how a track that has been used on a movie trailer was made. Doing this also validates the learning (this actually works). This walkthrough is my track Sati which has been used twice; once on a Your Honor teaser and once on the Nobody trailer.
• Building Drone track from scratch
  After you have been shown the walkthrough I then create a track from scratch. Going through the same steps I have used to create 4 albums of building drone trailer music. This way you can see every single thought process and all the little “tips and tricks” I use on a day-to-day basis.
