What is Soundtrack?
Soundtrack is a term that appeared before OST and the meaning of this word is much broader than OST. Soundtrack is a sound recording used in film production or post-production editing. These recordings are often inserted into the content being shown. Soundtrack includes the types of sounds you hear throughout the movie such as: Sound effects, character voices or music,...
What is OST? Where does the OST appear?
OST stands for Original Soundtrack, meaning the original audio track. This is the original recording version, without undergoing editing, cutting, or mixing with any other external sounds. This audio version is usually performed by the original artist, not cover versions.
Depending on the film or game, the OST may or may not have lyrics. The most special feature of OSTs is that they contain soul, content and bring a part of the emotions of the work.
OSTs in movies: Almost every work, including movies and television, has its own OST, and OSTs in movies receive a lot of care and investment. Many OST songs have won prestigious artistic awards, such as "My Heart Will Go On" from the movie "Titanic" won the Academy Award for Best Soundtrack.
OST is also one of the Oscar Award nomination categories
OSTs in anime: Many anime series also have unique OSTs, creating a deep impression in the hearts of audiences. For example, "Shingeki No Kyojin" from the movie "Attack on Titan" is considered one of the best anime OSTs of all time.
OST in the game: many famous games also integrate OST into promotional videos to attract players. For many gamers, OST is not just background music, but also something that evokes emotions every time they immerse themselves in the game world.
