Themes And Stings












My interpretation of Stings is when a short musical phrase or piece is used as punctuation, often used to introduce a certain part of a show or for comic relief (ba dum tss).

Theme on the other hand is similar in that respect to Score, except the piece may not have been written directly for the show or be part of its soundtrack. is usually another musical phrase associated with an action, event, show or character. Essentially its the shows theme song e.g. Doctor who's Theme.

The above musical piece is used to dramatise certain events throughout the series involving the doctors character, it is directly tied to his character. As a result of the catch action styled piece of music it emphasises his strength as a character and this as a result is more engaging for the audience to watch.
