6/11/09 Meeting the Music Supervisor

Met with my music supervisor Sacha Dzuba last night to go over some preliminaries for HOUSE OF SECRETS. Dzuba is part of the band The Julia Dream but he's also a very talented composer who contributed to the score for JACK O'LANTERN and some of my early photo gallery films. He's also composed music for several short films and even a full score for a children's theatre play.

For HOUSE OF SECRETS I need a variety of band music and original score and he's the one I trust to be able to bring me a variety of stuff to choice from (if not compose something original himself). Right now I have someone else on board to score the film (Kevin McKiney who has scored CITY GARDEN for me so far) but I wanted to work with Dzuba again and this was one of the best ways to do so.

Our meeting was very production in that we discussed the four songs by bands that I thing the film needs and we listened to a lot of different genres of music so that he could get a better feel of the types of songs that I'm looking for. I even came to the conclusion that I need to use one of The ulia Dream's song as my End Titles song.

Working on this just means I'm getting that much closer to finishing the film (even though I still have a very long ways to go).
