Unofficial announcement

what percentage of people write their own soundtracks for their films? I've only been using the music off of Final Cut Express. I need to think of a great intro like "The Greatest American Hero".
 
A lot of people do their own scores, or have someone else score their film. I know there is a forum for composers. And, some composers frequent this site as well, Chris Hurn, and Chris Rojas come to mind. They both did great jobs with some of the sci-fest shorts.
 
great fest

lol i wanted to participate in sci-fi fest but couldn't make it. if i find an actor i'm really gonna try my best to be in.
 
As someone asked before, we can submit a short for this using another camera right just for viewing pleasure, but it wont be voted on, right?

A midi keyboard and garageband = original soundtracks. A little musical talent would help too.....but it's never stopped me...... although maybe it should.

I'm gonna cross post this in the other two or three threads about this since there seems to be no clear official word and there's no official thread or sticky :)

I was gonna do something like "A HISTORY OF VIOLENCE"

Barry_S in another thread said:
Please don't ask us, it's up to YOU to decide. Really. Don't ask me to get geekier than I already am. The term "hero" is thrown around a lot today, so you might want to put the bar a little higher lest you include the really helpful lady at your vet--or at least put a cape on her. :)
Based on this defintition I took was developing something about a man who was seen as a hero in his community and then does something that might seem heroic on some level but turns out to just be graphic and awful and at the opposite end of the human spectrum - animalistic anc base and violent an primal

because THIS mod (Barry) in THIS definition left it open to MORTALS with heroic qualities ... in other words someone that commits or is capable of committing an act of heroism!

Now somehow Jarred seems to have made it just SUPER hero's b uy nature of calling it SUPER hero in another thread after Barry's.

Glad it's not two weeks before the contest. I'm also only 65% as interested now.

But maybe Jarred was just being loose with his language when he typed SUPER hero after Barry had just typed hero, and excluded jantors for going to work everyday and commuting 90 minutes each way, but including tellers that stop a bank robbery, a dad that throws him or herself in front of a bullet to save his kid, etc.

I, hope it's left to the more broad definition that may include extrordinary mortals/and or movies that deal thematically with what it is / means to be a hero. :thumbsup:
