Music From and Inspired By:. Writings about the Soundtrack(s) of my Life. Thursday, July 29, 2010. Aliens: Copy-Paste Saves the Day! It's not a crime. If you have a backlog of usable material that's worked before, and your back is against the wall, why reinvent the wheel? Chuck in the pieces you can use, adapt as necessary to fit the information at hand, rinse, repeat until you have something resembling a respectable document. And then continued doing with Titanic. The Mask of Zorro. Trumpet sounds and c...

Ron Moore, among his other accomplishments, is a veteran writer of several Star Trek. Cast, Star Trek: First Contact. Is the anti- Trek.

Music From and Inspired By:. Writings about the Soundtrack(s) of my Life. Friday, November 30, 2012. Batman Returns: Jingle Hells, or Blogman Returns. Now that the holiday season is upon us, it seems fitting to talk (finally) about Batman Returns. In fact, you might consider this part of a trilogy of films produced by Tim Burton that deal with Christmas from an outsider's perspective. The others are quite a bit more sweet-natured and heartwarming - those being, of course, Edward Scissorhands. Which is re...

Zeb M. Wood: Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows:Part 2
http://zebwood.blogspot.com/2011/07/harry-potter-and-deathly-hallowspart-2.html
A digital diary delving into the graphical habits of a raving lunatic. Tuesday, July 19, 2011. Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows:Part 2. I am a fantasy geek. I grew up arguing with my brother about which Star Wars Film to watch before lunch. After lunch we would fight tooth and nail about which to watch next. Nine times out of ten, we watched all three. My mom, to her annoyance I'm sure can quote nearly every line of Return of the Jedi. Thanks mom. I am a fantasy geek. Released 2001, my high school gr...

Music From and Inspired By:. Writings about the Soundtrack(s) of my Life. Friday, March 22, 2013. Dr Strangelove: Music from the Films of Stanley Kubrick - A Very Strange Entry. Hello again. It's been a few weeks. At this point you probably expect that any time I say I'm going to be back very soon, I'll be absent for a while. That's the trouble with having a job working for a very small company - I never quite know when I'm just going to be swamped for a while. Score albums of Bear McCreary. When I'm low...

What do i mean? Because the textures have esoteric names given to them by the texture masters, you see, names like ...

A digital diary delving into the graphical habits of a raving lunatic. Sunday, December 28, 2008. Here is the Set environment for the SIGGRAPH Student Exhibition Animation Spot. Basically it is just a single show table with an easel. The easel is rigged to perfectly open and close on specific axis and angles from the top of the object. The Robot character known as Yashimo. Will be able to set up the easel and put his work or the Events banner onto it in one of the 5 second spots. Who knows. But I WILL.

Music From and Inspired By:: Alexander Nevsky: How to Score a Big Honking Battle Scene
http://cinematicmusic.blogspot.com/2010/04/alexander-nevsky-how-to-score-big.html
Music From and Inspired By:. Writings about the Soundtrack(s) of my Life. Monday, April 12, 2010. Alexander Nevsky: How to Score a Big Honking Battle Scene. I stumbled across Prokofiev's Alexander Nevsky. At just the right time in my teenage love affair with big, bombastic, epic movie scores. I had just bought the Leonard Slatkin/St. Louis Symphony Orchestra recording of Carmina Burana. It was a date with destiny. I'd bought Carmina Burana. During one of the dress rehearsals. In the very first track....
