Moments of Perfection - Out Theme

Was working on the core MOP theme yesterday and this popped out at the end. I dig it, it has that simple ascending movement to it - ultimately hopeful and delicate - it lives really nicely at 113 bpm which is where the main energetic theme is at as well.

I can see this being used at the end of the piece when everything has calmed down and you want a little bit of hope to leave the theater with...

SAmi is still playing with the imagery for the front of the piece - he's swapped out the spooky church for a statue of Venus - which I think makes a lot of sense when you consider the greater theme of the movie.

The Washington Influence Industry | Music to Edit to

We've had a couple of documentarians staying with us over the last week: Terry and Sam are making a film about political corruption and the corporate takeover of democracy in America. You can find out more about the movie here:

They'd been on the road for 15 months, interviewing people like Ralph Nader and Jack Abramoff, and were at the point where they had to condense their 80+ hours of footage into a compelling trailer. It was fascinating to watch them work -- and they did work their asses off.

One night they were editing the text and I was sitting playing in the background; this was the result. I'm calling it music to edit to; it's a combination of blues chords and the development of the forthcoming "Moments of Perfection" animated movie.

Enjoy!

Moments of Perfection - Starting out...

So having finally published the marathon that was Wendi, I’m kinda all fired up over the next piece of music. I’m working with animation director SAmi Nikki again on a new short film called Moments of Perfection.

We’ll have a website up in the next few weeks and will be tracking the development of the film in the same way that we did with Project Last Chance.

SAmi sent me a piece of music that he had been inspired by, it starts out hauntingly beautiful and segues into this eastern European dance theme – all minor thirds and fourths with a solid drone back note and some basic percussion. I’m working on developing the front theme and I think this has promise.
