Let's
get started!
1. Determine your Songwriter Emotion
As a songwriter,
choose a target emotion you want listeners
to experience in your song.
Being a songwriter has little to
do with you; everything to do with others.
3. Songwriter Dynamic
Songwriter
Dynamic is the "character" of
your song; the "way" your song
flows. The genre of song has
strong influence on your
songwriter dynamic.
5. Songwriter Prominence
Some songwriters
like to emphasize (or "call more
attention to") their lyrics or
music by diminishing the
intensity of other.
7. Songwriter Rhythm
Rhythm is a very
powerful part of your song.
Lyrical delivery is singing or
reciting your words at a pace
in-sync with your songwriting
tempo and beat. |
2. Songwriting Tempo
"Tempo" is the
speed of your song. Every song
has a specific speed, but most
songwriters don't consciously
set tempo when songwriting.
4. Songwriting Sections
As a songwriter,
your next task is to figure out
which layout is the best for
expressing your target emotion
to your listeners.
6. Songwriting Notation
If you can't
notate your song, It'll be
difficult to develop your song
if you can't notate your lyrics
& melody. You need way to
transpose your song.
