Broken Image (2010 48hr Film)

I composed the score and edited audio for the first-year team Yellow Sandwich in the Des Moines 2010 48 Hour Film Festival, July 23-25. This was our entry.

Required Character: Carl or Carla Ross, Plumber
Required Line: "Who came up with that?"
Required Prop: Coins
Our Genre: Thriller/Suspense

I've worked on a couple 48hr competitions in the past as a composer. This was my first time editing the raw audio and also my first time on set (I've always worked remotely before), and both were a learning experience. It was good fun.

I can't believe you guys didn't make the top 12. This movie is well done and fantastic story telling. Nice work. Keep it up. It is rare that teams actually stick to a difficult genre like this one and end up with an effective film.

@Larggy Wow, thanks! I had a lot of fun, and I'm pretty sure everybody else on the team did as well. From a music standpoint, I was actually really happy to get the genre - I love working within the parameters of the eerie, and creating ambient sounds to go along with it. I didn't have to direct or write though, so I got off easy! Thanks again!

Love the film - excellently shot and scored. The ending scene literally made me gasp when I first saw it. I especially like the nightmarish audio during the coin-counting scene. Nicely done.

@JustinNorman Thanks man! I had a blast working on it. Everything came together pretty well in the end, I think.

@duVillage Hey thanks, man! You should check out the 48 Hour Film Festival's website - it's a worldwide competition, there may be events held near you that you could get in on.

The music was very fitting for the scenes. I've always wanted to do something like this, it would be so cool ^_^. I am jealous, haha :-)

@namineroxas45 Thanks! It was fun working on set this time. Also, I enjoy making creepy music. At some point I'll need to work on a film where I have more than 48 hours :)
