Here's the result of my John Williams/Star Wars exercise...
I spent exactly 125.50 hours on this. That is, learning John Williams stylings and writing Star Wars music for this project.
This really pushed the limits of my skills as a composer. It was an exploration of a style that I personally didn't have any experience writing. Seeing my music work within the Star Wars universe for the first time is VERY rewarding.
Thanks to my teammates Bill Snyder III and Roland Bingaman at Outlier Studios for helping me. And to director Ian Wilkins for having us on another episode of his Dark Empire series.
