I don't agree that he isn't very creative or original. Regardless, he writes great music and that's all that should matter. Not every wondrous, complex, and beautiful piece of music involves having previous knowledge of vast or minor theory nor does it require "buying into." Really? So, the...

Yes. I 100% agree, though, I'd add an exception to the midi thing. It's only necessary if you're more comfortable writing with a keyboard or other physical devices/or synthesizers, which I'm not. I personally prefer to "point-n-click" my notes into place using the software alone. I like to...

Excellent for you, man! Good work! Once I get one more project done, I will actively pursue a more professional career in scoring. I wish you the best. You're absolutely right. It's certainly not easy. Like I said, I've been using FLStudio for 15 years and not until just a couple of years ago...

AudioPostExpert, I don't disagree with your points, in fact, I'm 100% with you. I think, however, I've corresponded too simply. My perspective is a little skewed, I'll admit, because I score all my own stuff and do sound design, all of which I juggle throughout post-production. That's probably...

Please please please do not be intimidated by not knowing keys, notes, or any of the technical/traditional form of music composition and be shamed into thinking you can't write beautiful music without that knowledge. I personally use FLStudio and have been writing music for more than 15 years...

I was going to respond to AudioPostExpert in essentially the same way. Thank you. What I originally meant was not to literally copy or paraphrase the music, I'm sorry if it came across that way. Just experiment. Drag in and drop out music you like until you're satisfied with the tone, then hand...

Bump. I'd like to know, too.

After several very positive reviews rolled our way, we rolled back an accolades trailer which features Sheldon Simmons as Jason Arthur. "Parasite" teaser. Look for Thieves ONLINE THIS SUMMER! Also, check out the updated premier poster above!

Very positive review/interview with me at Grizzly Bomb! I'll be working on an accolades trailer soon in order to gear people up for our premier.

I would have to imagine sound design and music would be a daunting task for film makers who aren't already skilled in those areas. I can't even start cutting a film without music to set the mood and guide the tone. Since by the time you are cutting, most film makers won't already have original...

Press screenings went incredibly well. More very positive reviews on their way from the journalists who attended. In the mean time, we've gotten a few new reviews that rolled in. Wow! Very flattering review from Fanbolt.com! Another very positive review. This time from Wes Cain over at...

I have been immensely busy with press screenings and promoting Thieves like it's my job. Thieves has been accepted into the Mitten Movie Project which is a very big deal for amateur film makers from my area as a very large number of films are regularly rejected. This is a particularly exciting...

This month we start screening our film, Thieves, for press review only. Whether or not you're from the Detroit area, we are making accommodations for any writers/bloggers interested in reviewing it to see it. If you are from the Detroit area and want to go to the press screening, check this...

Thieves will be available for press review in the next few days. However, we are looking into a special private screening FOR PRESS ONLY hopefully within a month. So, if you operate a regular blog, website, or do video reviews, write essays, or any other considered form of publication, you are...

No, you're not experiencing deja vu. Originally this was posted in "Narrative" and I realized later that that was an inappropriate spot for it. I asked Knightly to relocate the thread. He agreed that it was placed incorrectly prior and would fix it. Thanks, Knightly!

Been working my little behind off on finishing Thieves, so I kinda was in the dark for a while there. All that remains is some ADR and a couple more pieces for the score and it's finally complete! In the meantime, check out our "Rectify or Liberate" thirty second teaser! Now in the OP.

I get down on myself quite frequently. I wonder, what's the point of trying so hard if I'm more than likely not gonna get anywhere with this "silly film thing." I'm gonna remind you and myself that it's not all for naught. You have already positively affected myself -- and as it seems plenty of...

Wow, Ziggy. Watched a bunch more of your work. Damn, dude. Best stuff I've seen on here since joining. Honest and genuinely good work. My utmost respect and best of wishes for your future in film.

I was being a little facetious. You're absolutely right.

This clip is a relief. Great GREAT job! :) Hoo boy! Some of this stuff in this forum...boy, I tell ya.
