In recent times I've been working to increase the amount of genres I can compose with confidence. I naturally tend towards drama and epic, but if I'm going to be versatile, I need to be confident in all manner of music. I've already tried my hand at Jazz, which thus far has turned out okay. But one of the cinematic genres which I previously had never composed much anything in was comedy.
Just recently I had the opportunity to score a short comedy sketch. Tada. I had about four minutes of music to compose in just under a week, which really, is quite reasonable. But it was a stretch for me, in a good way, noting my previous inexperience in the genre. The director liked what I came up with.
You can watch the sketch here if you like:
Before I worked on the score of this sketch I had written a comedic theme, potential for a future piece. I tried to incorporate it into the sketch but it never really seemed to fit very well. So now, I've made a comedy piece out of it.
Cheers!
