"Broken Record" film
Morgan's best man tries to help him fulfill his destiny on his last day of freedom.
I always look forward to the Rialto 48Hour Film Competition and the chance to work with the guys at Sideways Productions.
After getting through the ongoing nightmare that we may be tasked with a 'musical' - I was relieved that the team got given 'film within a film' as the genre.
They did a really great job and ended up getting the audience choice award at the heats - but unfortunately no further successes this year.
I had fun exploring an assortment of VSL strings, a shaker or two and a "tweed picked synth" for good measure.
Here's how the music looked at my end:
I arranged the 14-or-so cues from the soundtrack into a single piece of music which you can listen to here:
