Why Action Scores are commonly in Odd Time Signatures

Enjoy the start of your weekend with my new series "Weekend Music Production Tip!" This weekend we look at odd time signatures, particularly 7/8 time, and why this time signature is used in so many action film scores. To demonstrate I scored some footage of myself playing "Days Gone" on the PS4 in 7/8 time. We also look at 9/8 and 5/8 time signatures while covering a few orchestral concepts. Happy weekend everyone and enjoy trying your hand at writing some odd time music!
