These are cues from a project I've been working on with friends for two weeks. It is a last-minute project for a festival with an entry closing date just last weekend, leaving us two and half weeks for scripting, prep, shooting and the entire post.
Starring Alex van de Ven, the film (set in 1896) is about some student applying for a job as a nightwatch in the archives of a university, for a smudgy congierge. The biology archive... meaning horror staples like glasses with dead animals, stuffed animals, creaking wood...
Needles to say, the student is overcome by paranoia.
I won't give away the ending, since I probably can show the film after the festival late next month.
Written and directed by Joris van Os. I was DP, as well as editor and composer.
For this score (14 minutes of score for a 16 minute movie) I had only one day, and therefore I HAD to rely on gut feeling and skip my idea of using notation software for composing. Instead I played evrything layer for layer.
Instruments used: waterphone (modulated and FX), tam tam, thundersheet, plate bells, cow bells (metal and bowed), bass, piano, clarinet, trombone (just for three short instances), glockenspiel and celesta.
All VSL Opus, except the piano (GigaPianoII).
SOme sounds may trick you, but it is all VSL!
There's much low noises throughout the picture, echoing FX (Bartok pizz on the bass very remniscent of the echoplex effect in Alien, by Jerry Goldsmith), and 'total' chaos in the "Paranoia Suite".
In total, I've worked some 16 to 18 hours on the score.
For these examples, I've used the film-cues which were limited to reduce the great volume/dynamic range of the originals.
Enjoy!! [6]
