  • Makin movies is so fucking hard

    at least I have a friend who's just as interested in it as me
  • if u make a movie-film I could possibly try to do some music for it
  • “I'm surprised. Those clothes… but, aren't you…?”
    That's cool. My friends used to be really into making movies, back when we were in high school.
  • I'm not really "into making movies" so much as I "made a single shitty short film that I'm immeasurably proud of"

    I would

    LOVE that

    I know you've probably done this a million times but could you link your bandcamp page so I can get a sampling?
  • This is probably my most representative record but everything including and more recent than the Magic Planet series is stuff I'm pretty happy with. I have a couple different 'sounds' so look around maybe.

    Ours were probably worse. Trust me.

    I will also volunteer to soundtrack one of your films, but I think I would need to get more involved in the process and I'm not sure how I would do that.
  • It's a rather ground up thing, I would think

    Because I have access to nothing but public domain music, I've designed every idea I've had around not having music. It's just kind of the mindset I'm in.
  • let me know also what you think, I like to know what people think of my music.
  • “I'm surprised. Those clothes… but, aren't you…?”
    I was thinking that reading the script and watching the footage would help, preferably a script with a decent amount of silence and low-key action. From there, maybe certain repeated motifs in the dialogue or the cinematography, I could assemble a series of musical leitmotifs.

    My assessment is obviously positive; on a technical level I can definitely see this as being inspired by video games, that is all I can really say though

    I don't understand where everyone gets this idea from |(

    still though I'm glad you like it

    It wouldn't be appropriate for this movie, but I'll post a link to the script because I want people to see. I'd love to get feedback on how you would approach it musically because even though I don't intend to use music I think it's an interesting way of looking at it

    and then when I'm formulating other ideas I'll have to keep in mind that music is an option, I'm really grateful to you guys
  • “I'm surprised. Those clothes… but, aren't you…?”
    I will say that a soundtrack need not be conventionally musical, or not obviously so. If you've ever watched a show directed by the late Ryutaro Nakamura—Kino's Journey, serial experiments: lain, but especially Ghost Hound—you'll notice how there is fairly little going on musically, but quite a bit going on in the sound design, sometimes subtly and sometimes quite prominently. I'm very much a fan of that.

    As am I! Also, could you link some of your work?

    Here's the script, formatted poorly because I copypasted it from screenwriting software:

  • I should point out I do have prior soundtracking experience but both times it was for a video game.

    (one for a student project my twitter buddy Gijs Sickenga made and another time for a canceled visual novel that never had an official title)

    Carpenters say a lot of pretty pretentious things for something pretty simple. In fact, a lot of carpentry hasn't even solved the same problems from thousands of years ago. There hasn't been a single advancement in carpentry since the invention of the hammer.

    The deceptively simple "Hammer Method" only involves a little critical thinking. (which I'm sure most carpenters are incapable of doing)

    Let's say you have a nail. Now carpenters might spend forever wallowing in angst over whether a nail is the correct implement or not.. The hammerer asks, "Is it a nail?" If the answer is yes, swing the hammer.

    Maybe you have a screw. A carpenter uses a far too lengthy process that they themselves call "boring." Even they don't find it interesting, W-O-W!!! Because a hammerer recognizes that screws are just sexed up nails. The solution, as always, is to swing the hammer.

    Perhaps you need to pry something open. A carpenter, the idiot that he is, might suggest a crowbar, which is just a glorified hammer claw. Even the technically right solutions are only derivative of the hammer.

    Have you ever read anything by a carpenter? Its all nonsensical, unreadable stuff about measurements or wood grains or some other shitty carpenter jargon. Hammerers don't need manuals or complicated, specialized tools. "Is it a nail? It Always Is." That's the only thing you need to work with wood. Anything else is just mental masturbation.

    If there are any carpenters reading this and getting ready to type up a mad comment, I'm already laughing at your useless wood studies "degree." The fact that universities will pay to teach naive students useless knowledge makes my blood boil.

    Carpenters can sit in their workshops making birdhouses while us with the hammers will be building bridges and skyscrapers.
