It's great to see you back again with this videos, as I loved what you did for season 1. Really looking forward to the whole season. BTW, what software do you use for the music notations? Do you use finale or similar, and then edit it in other software like photoshop? I want to try my hand with something like this and I would love to know your work process. Thanks in advance!

Thank you! I use MuseScore for the notations, Photoshop to edit the notations, and Hitfilm Express to edit the video together! I'd love to see you try your hand at it, I'll subscribe so I don't miss it!

@melodyworkshop3 ай бұрын
@@FringeMusic107 definitely just a tease, more to come! Giacchino, in my opinion, mastered creating new, epic and grand themes, and reprising his catalogue of previous themes dating back to the very first season, perfectly! The final season might be my favorite, music-wise, because of that.
@mrwproductions8153 ай бұрын
Oh my God! LOST is one of my favorite shows ever and Giacchino's score is just as great. I hope you have in mind to do a lot more of LOST because this is amazing. I would love a breakdown of some of the longer cues like SS Lost-tanic The Hole Shabang or even emotional ones like Closure or Moving On. Such a beautiful score!

And we're back to Rings of Power! Before I can really start on the season two breakdowns, I'm going to wait for Bear McCreary's blogs to come out (Lord willing they will be released :I). However, with the pleasantly surprising release of the famous Rings of Power Comic-Con Overture with the episode 1 album, I am able to make a video on that, much to my delight. Hope you enjoy, I'll continue with my Back to the Future videos, and see you again till the season two series begins! Thank you!

I have to say the Southlands theme is suspiciously over the top triamphant. Not as a complaint, It just gives me a very bad feeling that this will be the best opportunity for that sort of rendition and they will never reach a higher point as a kingdom, as sauron or the orcs will destroy them. Which means will necer hear it as triamphant again. And this is sad and dark. And awesome musical storytelling.
