Bernard Herrmann's composition techniques are very innovative, and even difficult to interpret harmonic design when analyzing his works with tonal music. The Neo-Riemannian theory formed in the 1980s is used to analyze the chord progression that cannot be accurately explained by tonal music analysis in Bernard Herrmann's film score, and to prove the Neo-Riemannian theory by marking the transformation methods used and deriving the evolution process of harmony Neo-Riemannian theory's rationality and superiority in analyzing film music. This study hopes to use the Neo-Riemannian theory to provide a new perspective for exploring the development of film musicology.

Film music was influenced by late European Romantic music, and the Hollywood film score system was established based on composers of European descent, followed by the fusion of numerous emerging musical styles, such as Jazz, Rock, and EDM, etc. The orchestral music as the main composition of the film score has a sense of aural expectation in the sound expression, which largely comes from the chromaticization of the harmonies. When analyzing Hollywood film music, it is inevitable that chromatic harmony progression cannot be accurately expressed by traditional tonal music analysis. This study analyzes the chromatic harmony progression of chromatic mediant relationship in the film scores of four composers from the perspective of neo-Riemannian theory. And the correlation between the four sets of transformations...

To this end, we used the big data in 2014 and 2021 to compare and analyze the K-POP-related images, figures, and public attitude between the two time points. The result can be summarized as follows: First, between 2014 and 2021, the changes over time in the media, where K-POP can be accessed by the audience, are more pronounced than common images about K-POP; Second, the figures that appeared consistently and commonly in 2014 and 2021 were found to be EXO and BTS, popular South Korean boy-bands. In the case of EXO, there was no commonly related figure at both points of time, but as for BTS, it was found that their fan club, A.R.M.Y, appeared as a common related figure; Third, compared to 2014, the rate of positive re...
