The Master Program in Film Music Composition caters to you with a strong interest in cinematic storytelling and extensive knowledge of music and sound technology.
The training takes place in collaboration with Kungl. The Stockholm School of Music (KMH) and the application is made via antagning.se.
Composing music for film places high demands on both musical, dramaturgical and technical knowledge. You must be able to master a wide range of musical expressions, compositional techniques and styles – and also have a distinct sense of musical dramatic design in interaction with other media.
A strong interest in, and an understanding of, cinematic storytelling is necessary – as well as extensive knowledge of music and sound technology as well as the specific techniques and working methods required by the film composition. It is also very much a prerequisite that you have the ability to work in teams and can organize your own creative process in a larger and more comprehensive artistic and narrative context. You will be involved in the productions made by StDH’s film students and the teaching will take place at both StDH and KMH. This means that the courses are consistently based on the authentic production and collaboration situations that characterize the film work.
