Sat, March 5, 7pm--The Iroquois Creation Story

I’m proud to announce the Wisconsin premiere of this gorgeous live action and animated film, The Iroquois Creation Story. I was honored to receive an award for the orchestral musical score (Native American Indian Film Festival of the Southeast), featuring Native American wood flute and a song at the end performed by Grammy Award-winning Joanne Shenandoah. The multiple award winning film follows the Turtle Island story of the Haudenosaunee people. This 17-minute film combines animation and dance to tell the story of Sky Woman and her Grandsons Flint and Sky Holder. It was produced by Peter Jemison of Ganodagan Historic Site, featuring Iroquois music and dance and the choreography and dancers of Garth Fagan (Lion King). It screens at the Walter Theatre (inside Abbot Pennings Hall of Fine Arts) on St. Norbert College Campus, DePere WI. Click the link above for tickets!

Sun, March 6, 11am--Film Scoring For Film Makers

This year, I’m facilitating a seminar for those wishing to learn more about film music and how it works (musical abilities not required). "Film Scoring for Film Makers" is an intensive workshop designed especially for producers, directors and editors—rather than musicians. Instruction includes decoding the basic film music vocabulary and film composer jargon, and a detailed examination of the four basic types of film scoring: Scoring the Action, Scoring the Cuts, Underscoring the Mood, and Underscoring Against the Action.

The 2.5-hour workshop covers the four basic types of film scoring by screening both good and poor examples of film clips, for a comparison-contrast type of examination. This method provides a comprehensive overview that producers, directors and editors can truly benefit from, by seeing actual music scoring examples, back-to-back with commentary provided for each. Near the end of the workshop, a “spotting session” is conducted with the workshop participants themselves by screening a film clip with the music removed; then together, the participants take a detailed look at the clip for scoring purposes. It is the intention of the workshop, that participants will learn the basics of spotting a film for music, and learn how to identify the musical shifts and changes within a film scene to accommodate the on-screen subject matter. The workshop takes place in Webb Theater (inside Abbot Pennings Hall of Fine Arts) on St. Norbert College Campus, DePere WI. Click the link above for more details.
