FILM SCORING

“Two” Chase – Murder Cue 5/6

In the summer of 2006 I attended New York University’s ASCAP/Buddy Baker Film Scoring Workshop. This excellent 2-week workshop was a crash course in the basics of film scoring. Participants were given four excerpts to choose from and I picked “Two”. I felt it had the most challenges to synchronize which was one of the elements of film scoring I wanted to focus on.

“Two” was a failed television pilot from the 1980s. The premise was that our main character had been going through life feeling like something was not quite right. Often he’d go places and people would say, “You were just here.” The cue starts with our hero looking over at the car next to him and realizing for the first time that he has a twin, and yes, he’s an evil twin. His wife is also in the car with the twin.

The music was recorded on the last day of the workshop using 21 of the finest session players in New York.
