British composer Ron Goodwin demonstrates film music production procedures with an emphasis on timing and synchronization. He shows how timings for a scene are taken by a music editor and the transformed onto a score by the composer with demonstrations on the use of click tracks. Goodwin illustrates his presentation with excerpts from his score for 'The Trap' and 'Where Eagles Dare' and shows how a basic theme can be developed and used in a wide range of ways throughout a film.
