about

For a while, I was convinced that my movie didn’t need non-diegetic sound; the plot contains musical moments, but I thought that being dramatically naturalist in terms of style would perhaps help evoke its intended tone. However, one day in the editing room, I was reminded of the possibilities and benefits of a score. Something was missing from the soul of this film. Almost immediately after beginning this process, the film came to life. I was thrilled. This is the purest intersection of my two biggest passions.

I knew it would only be a few short compositions, since this is just a short film, but each track needed to pack an emotional punch, even though if a film is truly engaging, the music can be internalized quite subconsciously. Obviously, though, it plays a huge role in accomplishing that engagement, just often under the surface a bit. In the end, after meddling with different instruments, the simplest instrumentation choices made for the strongest emotional connections to the characters. Combined, the composing and foley processes took about two weeks. I was hugely inspired by the work of composers such as Michael Giacchino and Gavin Bryars, as well as producer George Daniel’s recent work with full orchestras and Giles Lamb’s “Dead Island Theme Song” from 2011.
