See Long Gone Daddy!
Kalen Egan's Blue Saddle Pictures has a podcastin' website where you can watch his films. Available on the site now is The Word of a Salesman, a 17-minute dramatic short shot on B&W 16mm, and part one (plus a trailer for the suite) of the DV-feature-turned-episodic-opus Long Gone Daddy. Parts two through five will be coming soon. The best part? (Or, rather, the relevant part?) I scored them!
Long Gone Daddy is the first and so far only feature that I've scored, and I'm proud of it. It's an enjoyable picture; it has a myriad of charms, and there's good dialogue and it's well-acted all around, and also, not boring. I truly had a blast working on the music, an exercise in thematic poignancy and nuanced playing. (You can download the soundtrack, if you're jonesin' for it after [or even before] all five parts of the film have been bro-- er... podcasted... at archive.org-- search for Spencer Owen. It makes for a pretty good album, too.)
This isn't to discount The Word of a Salesman, of course-- I did significantly less work for this one, but it's a noticeably finer and sharper film, and it represents an evolution in Mr. Egan's work as a writer/director/cinemateur.
What do you say? Ring in the new year the Long Gone Daddy way!
