Technical Tuesday | Mood Songs

Humans are moody creatures and artists amongst the species are even more so. So, to create the right mood one has to cajole, woo and beguile an artist into giving the right expression desired while shooting.

Besides giving a low down to the actor about a scene, the director also gives enough to facilitate an actor in bring out the best for the said scene. To be within the character takes time. You might have heard the mechanism that actors use to get into the character and get out of the character. We shall perhaps talk about that as well in our technical tuesday column.

Here is a video where mood song which is basically the background music for Saahir Azim Choudhary that evokes within one a mood that is heroic. It makes you want to get up and take action.
