  • I love that this orchestra contributes with any type of genre, even metal (Nightwish).

  • @composermark My account is now approved for videos up to 15 minutes - so I will upload the full thing at my youtube page - composermark

  • @beatnikcafe not in Eastern Europe for example. But there are many factors of course, the style of music and the experience of the players. I was very surprised in LA just how much time they spend on cues - but they always do sectional passes as well as tutti takes - and there is always some comment from directors which results in a flurry of orchestration changes courtesy of the JoAnn Kane crew on hand. 

  • @ColtonBrook This may be a version I tweaked to get it within an upload length for YouTube. Sorry.

  • @devrimyoldas I booked 3, 3 hour sessions on a Sunday, the only day LSO was available at the time. We managed to get everything done and the players left about an hour earlier in the third session. We were all pretty exhausted. As to the printing, I won't do that again - it was crazy. But the quote from JoAnn Kane was close to $25,000. A little steep for this project I felt.

  • @composermark compared to other orchestras you've worked with is that the norm in terms of getting it right on the first take?

  • What's up with the editing of this film?! :(

  • Beautiful work.

    How long did the entire recording session last? Excluding mix and master.

    And did you really have to print the entire score on your own? İf soo, thats mean.

  • fantastico!!!

  • @jazzmatik

    The orchestra was sight reading. Basically we would do each cue 3 times. It was usually perfect on the first and second play through, but you do a third take for safety.
