I love the stuff LoFi and Charlie Bird come out with, such a great duo! 

This is just kind of a mish mash of styles and feelings. Just decided to have a little fun with some color, music, VO and titles.

P.S. I think Richie "The Voice" Millennium would be perfect for the VO on this. Where you at Richie??

This is the 3rd segment of the test pilot for hRTV that I'm making.

Segment includes:

*RE: The Road Remix

*RE: The Road w/ Attilee, Soupy, & RichieMillenium

*Mademoiselle Noir

Please let me know what you guys think! Also, let me know if I missed citing anything!

Well I thought this trailer idea by LilacAmy was incredible. I also found ChristopherHarns "Somnium Sopor" to be inspired and moving. I cut up Somnium to a few choice words and sentances and threw the voice over ontop of the video. 

I did this using the V.O. button on iMovie, which was a tad bit difficut, and which with I have no idea how to create a stem of, which is rather unfortunate for REmixing. I was thinking maybe someone with a deeper voice could give it a go? I'd also love to hear a sound design for some of the clips the car racing by, the twigs in the woods, etc.

I think this could be fleshed out to be something bigger too. Like maybe I could film myself Saying this stuff, and someone could throw it in there as if its a conversation happening between me and a curious dreamer, or reporter, trying to get the final word on this DreamShare business. Why have nightmares taken over? Why are they so powerful? Can we rid of fear? Would we even want to?

Ironically enough, I had a nightmare last night. Enjoy! 

Here's the music to accompany saintmaker's poem "The Likey Tree". I set out with the goal of giving it a "sing-songy/quirky/creepy/cute" kind of vibe. Somewhere along the way the song took over itself and became what it wanted to be.

saintmaker, being the talented and prolific writer that he is, wrote a second verse for the song (check out the resources below). I might try to work something up for it, but I would love to see how other artists and musicians envision it. Anyone feeling inspired?

As I'm sure most of you know, joerud is an amazing musician. This track was a lot of fun to work on.

I'm starting to feel grounded as a producer and this track was perfect to exercise my chops on. Joe, if you ever want to collaborate on something, I'm down.

Special thanks to seldelaterre for the challenge.

Enjoy!

One challenge down!

Lyrics:

Calm skies and bright fields, it's a perfect day to try this

I wouldn't try this without you here, I'd be paralyzed with fear my darling

I'm jumping if you're jumping- a perfect day to fly!

This couldn't be just my idea, so I'm glad that we inspire something

Off we go, we're flying or falling; either way together

I'm okay if you're okay

We float and drift away

My dress to my thighs, blessed in the light of summer, wind on windy days

Your breath like wings above me

To hear you say you love me

I'm jumping if you're jumping, a perfect day to try this feeling safe and warm and free and lucky and tired and beautiful...

Another idea for a background passenger. If you need any changes feel free to ask :).

Inspired by MalenaCalix's lovely words :) :

'Rain rain go away,

and please take me with you.'
