Drawing Close to the End

8 More cues and 2 possible songs for the film Finding Seoul, and then alas this project will be over.

I get a bit sad when things get to this point, because I know a lot of the hard work is soon going to go into rewrites and ultimately, come to an end. When you work on a TV series, its different because the end is some thing in the far future that may or may not happen every season. I guess because as the episodes come in you realize that those milestones are just as important as the type I am closing in on..

I've almost found my Seoul.

My best,

Seoul Continues to Shine

I’m into day three of production. Well I should say night three.

I tried. I really did. I tried to compose during the day and failed miserably :)

Well, that’s not true. I did finish a number of cues for Finding Seoul on friday afternoon. The main theme though has been rocking in my head pretty much the whole week I’ve been working on this, and its hard to get it out. I’m working a lot on the beginning of the film since the music is pretty close. The historical footage is my favorite. I chose alto flute for the main character for when he was a boy, since it really hit the child-essence thing to a T.

As far as later on in the film, there is going to be a lot more of the recapitulation of the the main title theme, which is a song. Vocals and everything.

So here’s to another overnight of composing!
