3 dramatic tension forwards!

Post by daveydad » Mon Mar 27, 2017 12:34 pm

Submitted 4 and 3 got the nod from two different screeners. I love doing this genre and have had these forwarded before ... Here's hoping!

Tracks are on my Taxi page: Fallout, Trapped, Zero Visibility

DRAMATIC TENSION INSTRUMENTAL CUES are needed by a NON-Exclusive Music Library that's always getting placements in a bunch of TV Shows, Film projects, and most recently, Movie Trailers. They're searching for Down-to-Mid Tempo Instrumental Cues in the general stylistic wheelhouse of the following references: Scandal: (0:00-3:13) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8wmV6zKxx-0 Law & Order: SVU: (0:00-2:55) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PvcHATh8bpY How To Get Away With Murder: (0:00-0:55) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HZI42B-BtrM Please submit Tension-inducing Instrumental Cues that can be Orchestral-Based Hybrids that use edgy, current-sounding patches/Virtual Instruments and production techniques or Cues that are mainly done with synths, Virtual Instruments, or even guitars, and no Orchestral layers. In any case, your Cues should add a sense of expectancy and/or anticipation to a scene. Stick with one mood from beginning to end, and give your Cues forward movement and a sense of building by layering instrumentation in and out to keep them from sounding too linear or one-dimensional. Please avoid any parts in your arrangement that are overly busy, frenetic, or in the higher registers, as that could distract from dialogue in a scene. Please submit Instrumental Cues that are at least 2 minutes in length. Short intros, or no intro at all, easy edit points and non-faded, buttoned/stinger endings are strongly recommended for this pitch.

great news David,
and a big congrats :)
If I may ask, since you're getting a lot of forwards in this style, are you getting any deals out of them?

Hey Dave, thank you for answering. what I meant is if you had any deals out of tension cues forward in general and not this listing specifically.
The reason I am asking is that I got almost all the tension cues forwarded more than once now, for the past year, and I've never heard back from anyone.. so I was just wondering
