A bit at a time
Now that the official editing has begun, things will move along rather quickly for just a while. I have all or parts of 8 of the 17 “chapters” roughed out, so we’re beginning to see the show take shape. There will definitely be two distinct types of these chapters. Some, which will feataure poetry, will have a beautiful and elegant style, both in word and in image. The other chapters capture more of the moment to moment action in the stadium, and they’ll have a more conversational style, which will complement the images.
I chatted with Gregg Lohman, a former student of mine, the other day. He is a professional musician in Nashville, and we talked about a couple of music cues I have in mind. Gregg’s a great guy, and he and his buddies are ready to contribute to the score, along with the regular cast of great musicians who always breathe life into the notes that we give them.
