Film Music Cliches ($37): Woodwinds Figures & Runs help you compose faster, make your music sound MAGICAL, and they’re also a great source of inspiration and learning. But while these rhythmic patterns teach you a specific part of cinematic music (mainly woodwinds rhythmic patterns and voicings), Film Music Clichés helps you master the rest. This guide gives you a clear game plan to write in a wide range of Hollywood styles—action, horror, romance, and more. We've broken down each style step by step so you can follow it easily. It also includes 6 transcribed, reduced, and analyzed scores from some of the top film composers: I, Robot (Marco Beltrami), The Mummy Returns (Alan Silvestri), The Omen (Marco Beltrami), Hellboy II (Danny Elfman), Chicken Run (John Powell), and X-Men (John Powell). These are the same scores we used to create the Composing Recipes PDF. So if you want to go deeper and learn straight from the source—this is for you.

INSPIRED BY THE MASTERS OF CINEMATIC COLOR

Classical Film Score Analysis:

  • John Williams - Hook, Harry Potter: Playful call-and-response patterns, magical trills
  • Alan Silvestri - Back to the Future: Rapid ostinatos, ascending bursts for action
  • Jerry Goldsmith - Star Trek: Ethereal glissandi, super-high register sparkle

Contemporary Cinematic Techniques:

  • James Newton Howard - Peter Pan: Ascending euphoria runs, fairy dance patterns
  • Alexandre Desplat - The Imitation Game: Mathematical ostinatos, mechanical rhythms

FOUR TYPES OF WOODWIND MAGIC

1. DECORATIVE FIGURES

Ornamentations that add sophisticated sparkle

Trills, mordents, turns, and flourishes that add color without overwhelming the arrangement. These are the "fairy dust" elements that make orchestrations shimmer.

BEFORE: Solid, functional orchestration without character
AFTER: Sparkling, magical orchestration with professional polish

2. SCALAR RUNS

Rapid passages that connect and energize

Ascending and descending scale patterns, chromatic runs, and connecting passages that create movement and excitement in action scenes or magical moments.

BEFORE: Static harmony with no sense of motion or excitement
AFTER: Dynamic movement with runs that lift and energize the music

3. ARPEGGIATED PATTERNS

Harmonic outlines that add texture and depth

Extended arpeggios, broken chord patterns, and harmonic figurations that support the harmony while adding sophisticated movement and color.

BEFORE: Simple block harmonies with basic orchestral texture
AFTER: Rich, flowing harmonic textures with professional sophistication

4. RHYTHMIC OSTINATOS

Repetitive patterns that maintain energy and color

Motor rhythms, mechanical patterns, and repetitive figures that add consistent color and energy without dominating the arrangement.

BEFORE: Arrangements that lack consistent rhythmic energy and color
AFTER: Continuously engaging textures with subtle but persistent charm

THREE WAYS TO USE THESE PATTERNS

1. ADD SPARKLE TO EXISTING COMPOSITIONS

Drop woodwind figures onto finished arrangements to add that final layer of professional polish and orchestral color. Perfect for transforming good compositions into magical ones.

2. USE AS CREATIVE INSPIRATION

Start with a woodwind pattern and build your composition around it. These patterns often spark new musical ideas and help break through creative blocks.

3. LEARN PROFESSIONAL ORCHESTRATION

Study how master composers use woodwinds for color and apply these techniques to your own writing. Each pattern teaches valuable orchestration lessons.
