This video educates aspiring filmmakers on the importance of a musical score that can really help your film. We look at a clip from Jaws without John Williams' music, and then we get to see the same scene with the music included.

"Man Against Beast" is composed and conducted by John Williams, and "Jaws" was directed by Steven Spielberg.

  • What does Quint say ? " Are you clear of the barrel? " it sounds like he says it in his ( Shaw's ) English accent by mistake...

  • "Hooper! Get clear of the barrel!"

  • Spielberg himself said John Williams was responsible for at least 50% of this movies' success.

  • Sucks that, like the music industry itself, the quality of film score composers has gone down the drain.

  • It's all true. I feel the same way about Bond films and John Barry. No James Bond movie will ever be truly terrific without Barry's music.

  • @SolidSnake032486 - When John Carpenter first screened Halloween for distributrs, it was before the movie was scored and NONE of them wanted any part of it because they said it wasn't scarey. ^_^

  • These are the kind of videos I'd like to see more of on youtube.

  • how did u remove the music from the clip?

  • @SolidSnake032486 Oh god fuck that noise I hate reality tv man lmao it has music though so idk what you were getttin at.

  • @FO3rulez You've been watching too much reality tv.

  • Any movie can be made about twice as good with a brilliant score, which John does with this one.

  • I liked it without the music seemed real and HARDCORE!

  • @McLarenMercedes in short, the score all depends on the tone of the movie or scene.
