How do I structure my soundtrack?

I'm trying to create a soundtrack for my short film. How should I structure it?

Start by identifying the key themes and emotions of your film. Then, organize your soundtrack into sections that reflect these.

What sections do you recommend? Should I include different genres?

Consider having an intro, main theme, emotional peaks, and a resolution. Mixing genres can add depth, but ensure they fit the film's tone.

How do I choose the right tracks for each section?

Listen to tracks that evoke the emotions you want for each section. You can also create a mood board to visualize the feel.

Any tips on transitions between tracks?

Use similar tempos or keys for smoother transitions. You can also add ambient sounds to bridge gaps between tracks.
