Good composition for everyone !:thumbsup:
 
Wow. I really didn’t think they’d go for this again after the grief of last time. Fair play to them. Can’t wait to hear the entries. Might even have a crack myself.
 
Amazing!!!
Retunes. You have just made my weekend!!! And cleverly thinned out the competition for your actual submission as it will take me (and many others to be sure) three weeks to get that song out of my head whenever I watch the clip! Well played sir

My motivation will be to submit a score that I worked diligently on, and regardless of the outcome of the contest, I will (like last year) be proud of the effort I put forth. That said, any opportunity to improve my skills or try new things is greatly appreciated!

I have to admit, the Power Rangers theme was brilliant! Good luck to everyone taking part in the competition. Have fun!
 
I really hope Fightin' Mooses enters again. When I saw that SF were running another comp I immediately just sang "Magic Bike will saaaave youuuuu". That says it all really.


edit - oh, hang on.... is that the entire clip above? If so then I guess they've gone for something much more 'straight' this year. Perhaps as a result of someone pointing out the naked emperor last time.

It's probably only me and I don't mean to disrespect the show, but I feel like the real difficulty with this clip is to manage to deliver proper tension and drama while the cgi and the girl look goofy and comical.
It's challenging to bring this clashing elements together.

Quite often music in comedy films is composed as if the film/cue is serious and the comedy will just come naturally anyway from the dialogue or situation. Ghostbusters comes to mind. Many others I'm sure.
