SPITFIRE AUDIO | DC’S STARGIRL SCORING COMPETITION

At the beginning of August, I participated in the Spitfire Audio | DC’s Stargirl Scoring Competition  where I had to score a scene from season 1 of Stargirl. This time, I was actually able to get my video uploaded on time, with no problems from YouTube! I’m also especially proud of this accomplishment because this is the first project I’ve completed using only Logic Pro. Usually I would create a score in Sibelius, then import it into Logic, and edit it there, but this was created using Logic from beginning to end. I hope you enjoy it!

The Cue Tube | Score Relief 2021 Scoring Competition

In January, I attempted to participate in The Cue Tube | Score Relief 2021 Scoring Competition, but again (like the WestWorld Scoring Competition) when I tried to upload it to YouTube (right at the deadline), for some reason it had none of my music. I took the opportunity to continue to work on it, and I am much happier with this version, even though most people probably couldn’t tell the difference between this version and the older one. Also, I have no idea what I did differently to make YouTube upload the video along with my music, so… live and learn?? I hope you enjoy it!

Spitfire Audio | WestWorld Scoring Competition

At the beginning of June, I participated in theSpitfire Audio | WestWorld Scoring Competition  where I had to score a chase scene from season 3 of WestWorld. When I tried to upload it to YouTube, for some reason it had none of my music (maybe because I used YouTube’s new uploader). Since I uploaded it right at the deadline, unfortunately there was no time to fix it. Eventually I did get the version with my music uploaded (using YouTube’s older uploader). I hope you enjoy it!

Jungle Jeep Chase

A while back, I joined a group on Facebook that does competitions for composers every few weeks. This was the description of the most recent challenge:

A Jeep chase through the jungle, enemies starting close behind you, then falling out of sight. Just when you think you are safe, the enemies approach you from a place you didn’t expect!

The ending should tell us the story of how the chase ends!

My submission, Jungle Jeep Chase, won!

Check out the write-up that Sam McLean did on his website. You should follow him and listen to his music, too. It’s great!
