Have you ever noticed how sometimes films reuse a piece of sound, music, or visuals over and over again? When that happens, it’s called a motif.
Motifs can add layers of narrative significance to your film. When they support the overall theme, they really drive home what you’re trying to say to the audience. Whether you use motifs through props, music, color, sets or dialogue, these recurring elements help underscore the theme of your narrative.

Question, so whats it called when music can foreshadow whats going to happen? Like in Jaws, the shark music plays when an attack is about to happen

@vinecyan Год назад

Late comment but I really need to know that as well!

The technique you're referring to is called "musical foreshadowing" or "leitmotif." Leitmotif is a recurring musical theme or motif associated with a specific character, place, or event. In the case of Jaws, the ominous shark music serves as a leitmotif that signals the imminent danger or an attack by the shark. This technique is commonly used in film scores to create tension and enhance storytelling.
