The Music Culture of Avatar
Assigned Reading/Watching: Watch Avatar (if you have not already) and find any information about the music of Avatar for the blog post below and class discussion.
Blog Post 9
Ethnomusicologist Wanda Bryant consulted on Avatar with the goal of identifying a music culture both for the film score (a soundscape of the film if you will) and the culture of the Na'vi. Since her work on the film, she has spoken to many college ethnomusicology classes regarding the process of creating "otherworldly sounds". After watching the film, blog about the two types of music (film score and Na'vi) and comment on the differences between these two types. Can you identify the separation of the film score and the music of the Na'vi? If it has been a while since you watched the movie, try to listen to the soundtrack again.
