See how work is progressing on my own TV theme tune
I am certainly no expert so I surfed the web looking for examples and here are some of the links I found which may get students started with some ideas.
The first example is actually an examination piece and it works very well. The first few are on the Sibelius web site so you will need the plug-in to hear them.
- The Epic Journey - Music for a children's / Christmas film (2003) by Chris Greenhalgh
Music for a film (GCSE Assignment) by Andrew White
Film Theme by Brian Solomons
Film Music Suite (Brass Band) by Francis Clifford
Film Music by Alasdair John Parker
A short film score by James McWilliam
Your Film or TV theme tune needs an accompaniment pattern (or 2) and a couple of tunes! Try this MIDI page for lots of ideas but don't pinch them.
