In this week, I spent quite a lot of time searching for my film scene to score. I went through many which I had thought would be ideal as they were very active and emotive. Scenes I had in mind from (in no particular order) “The Shining”, “The Exorcist”, “Cloverfield”, “Scarface”, “Indiana Jones” and “Resident Evil” were perfectly plausible, but many of them seemed too iconic or had too much dialogue to re-record to use for the task. In the end, I settled for a personal favourite of mine: the fight scene in “The Matrix: Reloaded” where Neo fights against hundreds of Agent Smith clones.
This scene will be a challenge to score well as there are plenty of foley hits, smacks and the like to create and integrate, and also because there are a few times where the music will slow down or suddenly change to mimic the slow-motion shots and changes in movements.
