After a presentation of the evolution over time of the professions of sound post-production, editing and sound effects in cinema, students learn about the sound post-production process for a feature film. By the end of this course, they will have mastered the methodological and technical tools (sound editing tools, picture mixing) as well as the standards for a ready-to-broadcast project, so as to be able to work independently.

This option gives writing students the chance to learn to play the keyboard if it is not their main instrument.

Study and understanding of the logic of harmonic language and its evolution in the main styles (classical, romantic, post-romantic, modern), the mechanisms of modulation according to the periods and their influence on interpretation.

Mastery of tuning (technique, culture, theoretical approach) gives the performer an additional understanding of a work and its aesthetic context. A veritable reading grid, it establishes the state of mind, the emotional environment of a piece or programme, while revealing relief, nuance, light and shade. It is a sensory guide, an inspiration, for the musician and the listener, opening up a world of hierarchical colours where coherence and contrasts, consonance and harshness invite expressive play. Tuning and organological notions will enable students to become autonomous when it comes to minor operations. By refining their perception of instruments, they will question their technique as well as the ideal sound they have of a school of instrument making or a score.
