I just finished step two of my experiment! I have expanded the simple melody with piano accompaniment and chord progressions. This phase provides the emotional framework and rhythmic pulse of the music. I transformed the mood with harmonies, so the initial idea begins to take shape as a true composition. https://youtu.be/2W1RhLInOa8

I started an experiment... I decided to share my workflow step by step, from the birth of a melody, through harmonization and melodization, to orchestration. This is the first step. I'm excited about the task! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aNJoVV_mEM8

I'm working on a challenge, it's the third week by now. The goal is to compose a film score for a piece of the movie: the Revenant. I tried to reflect the harsh, frozen environment surrounding the main character and the slow, seemingly endless journey through an unforgiving landscape. The icy outdoor scenes are underscored by double bass and deep cinematic percussion, providing weight, tension, and a constant sense of threat. Repetitive, restrained musical patterns are used deliberately to emphasize monotony, exhaustion, and isolation. The cave scene receives special attention in terms of orchestration. Here, the focus shifts to a more intimate sound world: a soft piano melody combined with subtle choir textures highlights solitude within the narrow space, offering a fragile sense of shelter from the brutal night cold. Sustained tones and minimal harmonic movement convey inner silence, vulnerability, and the delicate balance between survival and collapse. Although i still have one week left i'm happy to share my work with you!

I also changed the name on it to reflect our name lol It was saying before Piano Tribe (until today). And our icon is changed also, as per your votes - the majority voted for the headphones so that is it now :) Oh, I opened up postings for level ones… so new people can immediately post their intro posts in the intro category 🫶 I believe if we get any bots/scammers we are pretty trained to handle them accordingly real quick!! Yes? Sharing photos below of the new banner and logo/icon (w the headphones) that we all picked together! Next step - reworking that classroom! Planning to lock EVERYTHING for lower levels (1 & 2) so that we can reduce overwhelm and increase productivity, as I am getting ready to slap a bunch more content in there. What do you think?
