I saw a rather interesting trailer to some IGN Zelda movie. Some people think it's an April Fools joke, and some think it's real.
The trailer can be found here: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YvN7jZ3 4SAA
Either way, I have to admit, they had some rather kick-ass CG with very professional video quality. Now, if only their casting and makeup artists were up to par with everything else...
Also, the orchestration I heard in that trailer was quite brilliant. I was impressed and even humbled by the orchestration and audio quality of the music their composer did, although I couldn't help but notice it was far too dangerously close to the original Koji Kondo music that it's got lawsuit written all over it. >.<
Although I'm not an arrogant person, I have to admit that some part of me felt like someone was trying to take my ray of sunshine and actually posed some good competition in that. It was, as I said, rather humbling. Not that I care if that person's music is good, but I do care that when "Hero of Time" comes out, my music's going to be compared with theirs, and that makes me feel a bit timid. But hey, competition's always a good thing, and to be honest, it's not a race. I compose because I love composing, and I'm not really a competitive person (only because I've never been put in the position where I was going to be considered competition before).
So, who knows what will happen. Time will tell. Music scoring for Hero of Time is going as smoothly as it can with fulltime college and part time work. I hope things are well with all of you. I'm trying to keep my mind off the bullshit that's been going on in the past week, but I'm hanging in there.
