Due to losing everything on my hard drive in the weeks of Easter I was treated to a fresh start with my final task, writing and composing for cartoons. After choosing to compose a reserved piece of music for my incidental task I decided to use a cartoon, which involved ACTION!!! The cartoon used is a one and a half minute clip from the ‘Road Runner’ series. My inspiration came from the anxious sound that Jazz creates along with the cliché car chase scenes of the 1960’s, for example the 1968 movie ‘Bullitt’. I found it hard to syncopate a sound for the running; the sounds I found sounded drool and fake. However, after the first few times I watched it, I did not notice that the sound for the running was missing. The music in the background rode me subtly along quite with it the cartoon.
