Motorola RAZR2 Commercial Music
This composition is a re-evaluation of my previous attempt; I have added more sound design to the commercial and made that much lower in the mix, trying to let it mold into the background. I also replaced some of the sound design with musical phrases, which insinuate what would most likely be heard, much like the method used for scoring cartoons. I found it hard to make the musical phrase of the company much more apparent in the earlier sections because they are so busy. I believe the interaction of both music and media develop a certain mood perfectly. Let me know what you think of the outcome!
The majority of the sound design you hear, is Foley. My first attempt at recording the footsteps sounded too dead because I was using trainers and they tended to slide on the floor and trail off. Until I began to use work shoes more like the ones Ethan Hawke is wearing in the scene, which gave a more dead feeling which duplicated the movements on the screen. The same with the shuffling and the necklace movement, which was hard to mix because I wasn’t sure if I should make the sound’s much more apparent but I felt it sank nicely into the background, I had to cut a lot of high top out of the audio file. The space shuttle launch needed a little low cut also, I kept a little rumble in there because it really involved me as a spectator. Originally when mixing the whole thing, the background music was much higher in the mix but I felt that it enforced more of a mood when it settled into the background. The composition is spilt into four parts the orchestration and changes give swift changes in dynamics, particularly the launch scene. In the first part of conscientiously used and made synthesizers that reminded me of science-fiction film. The crescendo is an obvious emotional incidental music rise within the video.
