Africa’s Giant Killers.
Rescore
During the course of my MA, I was mentored by Composer William Goodchild who introduced my peers and I to the exciting world of scoring for wildlife documentaries.
The wonders of nature are inherently inspiring, not only to watch but also to score, and so, to date this remains one of my favourite works I have produced.
I thank Will for providing this early edit of these two sequences and for acquainting me with the world of wildlife storytelling for it has become one of my favourite genres.
(n.b. I do not own any of the visual or audio materials presented, only the orchestral rescore).
Big cats - The black-footed cat.
Rescore
The BBC’s Big Cats documentary is one of my all-time favourites. I had to pounce at the opportunity to rescore one of its scenes.
The black-footed cat sequence captured my imagination as the small but agile cat hunts under the starry light of the Karoo desert. In my rescore, I went for a tone that was a little more sinister, swung and magical.
