A Sneak Peek Into The World Of KERBEROS
Posted on November 5, 2009 at 4:33pm 0 Comments 0 Likes
I've uploaded 2 cues from the film i'm scoring called 'KERBEROS'
One made it in. The other, 'DARIUS BREAKS' didn't as it just gave the scene another vibe altogether.
Enjoy!

A Quick Update

Ok, so that went better than expected. (See last blog).
Even more work has been put in to it to tighten it up; color grading, background audio and, more importantly for me, the soundtrack has been added. I now know where my cues more or less fit. Did you not have a spotting session Russ? Yes, i did. But the thing is with films is that it's made by very creative people with a lot of artsy things they want to say in it; even in a violent movie such as this. And so cue placement and… Continue

It Just Occurred To Me...

I was given a month to score this three headed beast. 31 days.
However, after doing the maths, the amount of time i was left with after having to work all week to pay the mortgage, means that i have only had 14.6 days to do it in.
Damn...I'm actually quite pleased with myself now. 8-0 !

Your compositions have a sort of warmth, that prominences the characters that you build(/mention) (e.g Darius).
I am sure they would sound even more scintillating when performed.
Have you ever considered using a Tabla ? I thought 'Darius Breaks' was looking for one !
Hope you don't mind my intrusion !!
Best regards,

For all you hardcore composers out there, I'm also using EWQL, Reason 3, Cubase SX3 and other VST's - What??? Whadya mean that's low end? Hey, have you seen the prices of VSL lately? it's that or the mortgage. Did i mention I'm only running a gig. Hey! it's my studio and i know how to milk it.
Back to the film. It's being mixed and mastered into 5.1 at Twickenham Studios, England, which is kinda rare for such a small project. And that aint cheap. Am i seeing any payment for this? you bet your ass, sunshine.
And so it goes. Back and forth over skype and ftp servers to deliver, well, the deliverables. Sometimes cues hit the mark first time. others need a lot of rewriting. Even the spotting session can bring about red herrings!
