Compose a Dramatic Film Score Like Hans Zimmer |

Live Electronic Music Tutorial #352 In this episode of our Live Electronic Music Tutorial series, we dive into composing a dramatic and emotional film score inspired by the legendary Hans Zimmer. Using a free chord progression available in Logic Pro X—which is also included in the templates created with this episode—we build the track in real-time, focusing on the creative process rather than just showcasing the polished end product. Join us as we layer cinematic pads, deep basses, bell-like arpeggiators, and a deep piano lead to craft a compelling soundtrack. This hands-on session is perfect for anyone looking to enhance your film scoring skills and learn how to create powerful music using Logic Pro X.
