Conventions and Techniques: 16. Cutting to Soundtrack

Alyx Entwistle
Cutting to soundtrack is the technique where each cut is influenced by the style of music heard in the background. So if the scene is a sad one, perhaps at a funeral, a slow song will be heard. If there is a car chase scene, the music will be fast and upbeat.
An example of this takes place a lot during The Fast And Furious films. This is a scene from the first movie from the franchise.
