The Adventures of Vector Owl - The Forest Theme

Vector Owl is a cheeky magical owl who gets up to various antics in the forest he calls home. To support the animated stories, a piece of music was required to set the scene before an adventure begins. The idea is that it probably be used after the main theme tune. Further incidental music will be written as required depending upon the story line. 

As a result, an idyllic theme was required to help put the viewer into the forest environment and additionally act as a reprise at the end of his adventure. 

If you want to watch the YouTube video of the Full Animated Intro here is the link.

Instrumentation Used

Piccolo / Alto Flute / Bassoon / French Horn / Celtic Harp / Vibraphone / Cello / Ensemble Violins / Ensemble Violas / Celestial Strings 

Background

This project began with a 10 second piece of music and a very simple 2D animation of a little character called Vector Owl.

The music was expanded into a full theme tune, a brand new redesigned Vector Owl emerged and a change of animation software resulted in what you see in the Full Animated Intro above.

Now that the Intro is complete, the journey begins on creating graphical assets and pieces of incidental music / sound FX for his first adventure. This Forest Theme is a vital part of these assets to help create a complete adventure. Music and sound FX will be particularly important with characters that don't speak to support any on-screen graphics. 

The Forest Theme can be enjoyed purely as a short piece of orchestral music of course. :-)

A little track recorded today. never think twice when recording improvisations

A Little elpiano Improvisation

If you're having a day where it feels like it's difficult to have time and space to breathe... spend a few moments with this track. Take a few self care moments of calm to shut out the world and use our quirky sounds to help visualize the "weight of the world residing within and on your lungs or chest" to be melting away, being plunked away, washed or rinsed away by The Divine. Breathe slowly, deeply... exhaling your concerns for just a few moments. Warning, this piece contains ASMR triggers... do not drive or operate heavy machinery until you know how your body responds to this.

The ghosts
Inspired by the bygone era of the 60s-70s-80s and popular art music, especially from the UK! All those little melodies that you tap with your fingertips or whistle...memories...
Artists, dying shadows on the walls, sometimes dazzling light, but their desire to be the best often led them down the road to perdition...
Many artists have never seen the light of the day of glory, these young chrysalises have not had the time to blossom on the big stages and yet some would have largely deserved it as the quality and beauty of their work was sparkling..... 
Doors open and close at great speed in this world. But they are still here, even if they have become ghosts, let us thank them for they have inspired us, shaped us and they continue - Thank you.

The ghosts
Inspiré de l'époque révolue des années 60-70-80 et de la musique artistique populaire, notamment britannique ! Toutes ces petites mélodies que l'on tape du bout des doigts ou que l'on siffle... des souvenirs...
Artistes, ombres mourantes sur les murs, lumière parfois éblouissante, mais leur désir d'être les meilleurs les a souvent conduits sur le chemin de la perdition...
De nombreux artistes n'ont jamais vu la lumière du jour de gloire, ces jeunes chrysalides n'ont pas eu le temps de s'épanouir sur les grandes scènes et pourtant certains l'auraient largement mérité tant la qualité et la beauté de leur travail étaient étincelantes...... 
Les portes s'ouvrent et se ferment à grande vitesse dans ce monde. Mais ils sont toujours là, même s'ils sont devenus des fantômes, remercions-les car ils nous ont inspirés, façonnés et ils continuent - Merci.

In the play "El cóndor pasa", Frank is a character born in an indigenous family, but with blonde hair like the foreigners that exploit him and his peers, a detail that deeply troubles him. In some way, he represents the people of my country, all of us descendants of colonizers and colonized. A shared history of suffering, that's what connect us, and yet, we keep finding ways to discriminate, segregate, despise, humiliate, ignore, kill, and hate on each other.

†ॐ

Composición basada en el "Yaraví de Frank (Pobre alma prisionera)" perteneciente a la zarzuela "El cóndor pasa", del compositor peruano, Daniel Alomía Robles (1887-1940).
