Summary
In this chapter, we discussed hit points and the music spotting notes list. Then, we learned about markers, including the differences between the various types, how to manually add them, how to navigate using them, and how to remove them.
We also explored how Logic Pro can create movie scene cut markers from an entire movie or by a certain selection, as well as how to create new marker sets.
Dealing with markers is essential when it comes to scoring films. They function as a reflection of the spotting notes and in conjunction with the movie events, mark the spots where the music should reflect the occuring events, the mood, and in general what’s on the screen.
In the next chapter, we will discuss different methods of scoring to picture, referred to as “laying out the cue,” by using hit points and different types of markers.
