AKASH MURALIDHARAN

Akash approaches film scoring through meticulous narrative analysis, first marking visual scenes into distinct blocks based on three core functions: emotional psychology, revealing subtext, and physical enhancement. He conducts a deep analysis of the film's emotional trajectory, carefully logging dialogue and sound effects to spot exactly where music is or isn't required. After collaborating with the filmmaker to lock in these cues, the composition process begins organically at the piano. Here, he experiments with pitch, rhythm, harmony, melody, texture, timbre, and dynamics to find the perfect psychological match for the film. By building the score from this raw foundation rather than preset templates, the final orchestration grows naturally to immerse the audience completely in the story.
