GoodMusician 56 Posted April 4, 2011 Share Posted April 4, 2011 Hey all, don't really post a whole lot anymore but I thought i'd bring attention to a little project I've been working on. Prime Survival is the fruition of several years worth of work. It began on a forum JPToys.com in the mind of a then very young (13/14) director Jack De La Mare wanting to make a fourth Jurassic Park film. After several writers and about a year of work, a scene here and there were shot until the film really started to take off. They've been inpost pretty much ever since, turning over media to me (who had volunteered a long time ago to do SFX and music).This is truly my first work and a lot of it started on another program on another computer in another time with a different quality sound library lol... so there has been a great deal of growth for me as a composer as i did it.I set out to write something in the vein of The Lost World/War of the Worlds. The story revolves around three boys who end up on an island only to find that it is inhabited by dinosaurs and their fight for survival. I chose early on not to utilize any of the beloved Jurassic Park themes for a few reasons: we have heard them over used a million times in JP3, this is a completely different island, I wanted to explore my own strengths as a composer, and lastly, I was afraid of copyright lol.After we attempted to gain some connection to Universal, only to find an official liscence cost $10,000, the films title was changed to simply "Prime Survival" (formerly "Jurassic Park: Prime Survival.")Post has finally finished and in the next few days the film will be posted online (and will eventually be available on DVD for free).In the mean time, anyone who's interested should go to these sites:http://www.delamarepro.com/primesurvival/http://www.facebook.com/pages/Prime-Survival/115834295102907Here's also the Official Trailer: Ive also worked on a Album which should be realeased soon. I'm gonna upload a few tracks online to garner some attention too! Would love all support! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Muad'Dib 1,801 Posted April 4, 2011 Share Posted April 4, 2011 I've been following this project since 2007 in JP-Legacy and it has always looked very promising. Jack has been working really hard through all these years and I hope I can see the completed project soon, it's gonna be amazing!By the way, could you post any samples of your music? I so wanna hear that TLW/WOTW blend you mentioned! It sounds so cool! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thor 7,490 Posted April 5, 2011 Share Posted April 5, 2011 Good work! It's great to see kids playing around like that; that was, after all, how Spielberg started out himself. Making the best of what you've got, trying to make your local neighbourhood into some exotic location, using your friends as actors etc.If the professionals won't make more JP films, we've gotta do it ourselves!

pixie_twinkle 48 Posted April 5, 2011 Share Posted April 5, 2011 Don't all the JP films have English actors? Attenborough, Postlethwaite, Peck...Looks great! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Richard Penna 3,680 Posted April 5, 2011 Share Posted April 5, 2011 They all have supporting roles and have a certain gravitas in their performances. It's weird to see an entire cast of Brits. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
