bollemanneke 3,352 Posted February 14, 2022 Share Posted February 14, 2022 Okay, I've nearly finished HP6. And I feel a bit disappointed. Lots of little good and even outstanding bits, but I am somehow left wanting more. More themes, maybe, or just a different kind of approach. Looking forward to DH.

Popular Post Potter Scoring Project 547 Posted April 23, 2022 Author Popular Post Share Posted April 23, 2022 This is not a DH update, but we were able to meet the maestro himself yesterday! He came to Juilliard for a conducting session where we played Superman March, theme from Jurassic Park, and Adventures on Earth. I was lucky enough to play piano/celesta, and Molly (who was in town to see his Carnegie concert the night before) was turning pages for me. So the short version is: both of us were in the room with JW and it was thrilling! And yes we did give him a flash drive with GOF, OOTP, and HBP on it. Basically we wrote him a thank-you letter for everything his music means to us, and presented highlights from the project as a fan gift (along with the knit JW). The project content was in an envelope so we don't know what he thinks or if he's heard it but we're just happy to have expressed our appreciation in some way! -BP michael_grig, redishere, crumbs and 21 others 12 2 10 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would like to know what he thinks about your work. We gave him a CD of highlights, basically picked from OOTP and HBP of our personal favorites/what we thought was most representative. We printed out the theme catalogue, and an itunes playlist view of the track titles from each score. Then the flash drive had a folder of the CD contents just in case, all the program notes, and it did have all of the cues as individual videos. Being sued by him will be an honor This was all in an envelope that said "Thank you, Mr. Williams," and we wrote a letter explaining what it was and just thanking him for what his music means to us. We didn't specifically put contact information since we wanted it to be more of a thank-you gesture and if he listens to it that's icing on the cake - but our website is printed on top of the theme catalogue and in the program notes, so if he really wanted to reach out I think he could. He could also contact the Juilliard staff, since they know Ben and they let us stay to give this to him afterwards.

Light00 5 Posted July 1, 2022 Share Posted July 1, 2022 6 hours ago, Dave said: What software(s) did you use for your edits? and how did you remove the original score? I can't rip straight from my blurays so I look for versions of the movies that have 5.1 audio. Once I got it, I use MKVToolNix to rip the audio from the mkv file. I edit with my native language (Italian) dub so once the audio is extracted, I use ffmpeg to split the channels and mainly focus on the front_center channel that has all the dialogue without score. The downside though is that some bits of the dialogue are in other channels too, and almost all the sound effects, so there are awkward situations where certain characters' voices (i.e. Frank and Kreacher) are so low they're difficult to hear. Later I move the whole movie on my phone to split it into sections and use Film Maker Pro to first mute the whole section, add my preferred score and then lipsync carefully. Given it's a private edit, sometimes I mix bits of the original score that I prefer with Ravendor's (i.e. I love Doyle's Goblet theme so that section stayed like in theatrical while the surrounding events have Ravendor's score) or sometimes I pull a Frankenstein and mix older tracks in scenes that are mostly unscored (like the whole scene at the lake where Hermione shouts "I'm not your owl!", my edit had Hagrid the Professor to present the setting with Harry and Neville then switched sections of Cakes for Crabbe and Goyle to highlight the comedic effect of what Ron pulled in order to not speak to Harry directly and then ending with the original score Doyle composed for the final section. It surely doesn't sound pleasant to somebody but it has been fun to make and experiment on Given you lose a slight bit of picture quality when processing the edit, I split the movie in smaller clips. It's a good placeholder until I actually learn to edit properly on PC and with higher quality softwares. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post Potter Scoring Project 547 Posted July 11, 2022 Author Popular Post Share Posted July 11, 2022 Hello everyone! Long post alert with several different bits of info: This past weekend, I was able to sub with the Buffalo Philharmonic for their performance of POA in concert. It was an absolute blast, and I had to hold back correcting little details and just be professional. They sounded great and the audience w as fantastic. I am so so pumped to announce that my paper has been accepted to a symposium called "John Williams, Last of the Symphonists?". I will be going to Paris in December to present on JW’s techniques in composing and orchestrating for action sequences. I’m open to any and all suggestions regarding what to do in my free time in Paris! It is FINALLY TIME to announce that, on Harry’s Birthday, we will begin releasing cues from Ravendor Studios’ Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows: Part 1 (2022). This has been a slower process than OOTP and HBP because a year ago we went back to normal busy non-covid-lockdown lives. So after a slow year of writing because of school and gigs, we’re so happy to start this final (very very long) journey on July 31st!

Dave 217 Posted August 1, 2022 Share Posted August 1, 2022 Finally! My monday morning tradition returned. First off, "Obliviate" is one of my favorite Desplat cues and I didn't expect you to top that but you somehow did. I really like how only the first half of Hermione's theme is used to represent the loss of her parents memories. But I expected a more full version later on but a reverse pensieve theme is also brilliant. Potter Scoring Project 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Light00 5 Posted August 1, 2022 Share Posted August 1, 2022 We're off to a KICKASS start!! I'm like Dave, "Obliviate" is also one of my favorite cues but this is also so good that I genuinely can't decide now. Just like in HP5, where Hedwig's Theme turned into the Chamber, I got chills when this Hedwig's Theme returned from the very beginning and transitioned into the Deathly Hallows theme this also made me realize we never really had a general Hallows theme so I can't wait to listen more of this theme.

WampaRat 1,105 Posted August 1, 2022 Share Posted August 1, 2022 Awww yeeeah! Great to have you back. Once again I’m astounded at your approach. This doesn’t sound like a “Williams imitator”. It really sounds like the maestro himself got to score all of these in some parallel universe (and with the foreknowledge of the story’s end similar to Shore and his LOTR scores;) I guess the biggest compliment I can give is when themes return that you’ve written my ears perk up (“Hey! That’s the Half Blood Prince theme! Hey that’s a snatch of dumbledors death motif” etc.) Potter Scoring Project 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Potter Scoring Project 547 Posted August 2, 2022 Author Share Posted August 2, 2022 @Dave That’s so awesome to hear that this is a Monday morning tradition for you! Means a lot to us. With the Hermione theme not coming back, I have to say this far into the series, so many moments lend themselves to so many different thematic options that sometimes it’s hard to pick. Ultimately I try to go for the one that veers away from too much repetition. @Light00 Dude I still remember when I put Hedwig and COS together for that cue in OOTP and it was so fun as a fan to just mesh them together like that! Glad you felt the same way! My initial idea for the opening credits in DH1 was to re-use the opening of SS, and was a little apprehensive, but had the same reaction you did. Once I threw it over the title and it worked I just got chills and was like yeah I gotta use it. A lot of the process of writing really comes from me also being a huge fan, and doing my best to stand outside of the work and see if it’s something I would have enjoyed had I not done it. Thanks @WampaRat! And thank you so much for saying that. Especially about the themes I ended up writing for the series. The goal was always to try and get them to “fit in” so it makes me happy to hear that you feel that way. And to @Dave and @Light00. As to the replacement of “Obliviate”, I avoided writing this opening until l absolutely had to because Desplat’s opening for DH1 is also one of my all-time favorites. What I found was tuning out the Desplat and receiving the scene as if it were a Spielberg or Lucas opening really helped me see it through a JW lens. Molly actually temp scored it several times with different JW moments, and one that hit me was Shmi’s funeral from AOTC. That was the jumping off point, and then I just bookended it with the Logo and SS Main title and bam it existed suddenly. I’m so happy it went over well with you guys! More to come!

Forever thankful you thought of doing this not only it was great thematically and it would sound godly if it had the opportunity to be played on a real orchestra, I would genuinely think it could've been used in alternate universe HP5 (and beyond) concert suites, as an alternative to the usual Hedwig's Theme opening, as it now represents Voldemort's return and his contrast with Harry. 6 hours ago, Potter Scoring Project said: As to the replacement of “Obliviate”, I avoided writing this opening until l absolutely had to because Desplat’s opening for DH1 is also one of my all-time favorites.

I consider Desplat's score to have shown the sadness for their old lives but then quickly prepared them for the upcoming war while your approach intensified the sadness and lament for their pasts, like with the saddest Family theme ever while pulling a twist on memories with Pensieve. I was also shocked you even brought back Call of the Prince given how the official score didn't thematically follow up on HP6 stuff so that was a great surprise.

bored 309 Posted August 7, 2022 Share Posted August 7, 2022 Finally have a reason to post again! Wonderful work on these first 2 cues! I'm incredibly impressed at how realistic you guys' MIDI work sounds now! The celeste in particular sounds flawless at this point, straight out of the movies. Really surprising and interesting thematic choices for these scenes, and I too am surprised how well you differentiated yourselves from Desplat's opening cue. The ending of the first Voldemort scene was pitch perfect as well! Easily one of the best uses of Voldemort's themes. I greatly anticipate the first appearance of the Order theme in your next cue!

This project definitely keeps us experimenting with our software. So glad to hear you like it so far! I'm also psyched about all of the themes at the front of this movie. Neither of us wanted to replace Desplat either, but once we came at it from the standpoint of the existing thematic tapestry it did come together. It's so great to hear that you're enjoying it!

I tried to design it in a way that it looks good next to the LLL Box but sadly I'm not as gifted as Jim Titus. But it still does line up more or less... and I selfishly added my own name in the design credit... The LLL Box already used all Hogwarts house colors on the spines and the later films doesn't have any coler to use so I put the Ravendor logo in that place.

Gollum Cat 24 Posted August 23, 2022 Share Posted August 23, 2022 @Potter Scoring Project - I just discovered this. This is unbelievably cool and I am immediately downloading everything to listen to it. I just commented the other day about how, in light of how the Lord of the Rings scores were handled, the Harry Potter films were a missed opportunity the size of a truck, and I am so excited to see the immense amount of thought you folks are putting into this. I noticed on your site that you credit Doug Adams' book - and your own liner notes reflect a level of care and thought that reminds me of Doug/Shore's own work on the Lord of the Rings theme relationships and structures. Do you write about this anywhere? I would absolutely love to read about how Doug/Shore's approach to scoring has impacted your work on these films. I'll begin listening just as soon as I finish uploading the files to my Plex server . . . Bravo! bored 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Potter Scoring Project 547 Posted August 25, 2022 Author Share Posted August 25, 2022 @Gollum Cat - Amazing to see people are still stumbling upon the project! Welcome! I'm so glad you also appreciate the Doug Adams book on LOTR. I got my copy the day it was released back in 2010 (I think it was 2010), and have loved reading it over the years. Thank you also for reading the liner notes! Those exist for the sole purpose of showing people that, in the process of writing these, I've tried my best to step out of the way and let the JW style come forward. That and it's an account of what themes show up where so people can follow along. I haven't written anywhere about the project other than here (neither has Molly), but we've discussed possible ways of answering questions about the creative process other than just on this thread. It wasn't actually until recently that we've started getting enough questions to even consider making a space to discuss all of this over the years. Thank you for listening, and I hope you enjoy the journey through! BP Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Why so little of the Order of the Phoenix theme? I was surprised when it didn't play at all for cues 4-6, as I was expecting some action variations on it in cue 4, and some reprises for when (almost) everyone in the order reunites after the sequence. I still like the other thematic choices you made, but the lack of this theme was very confusing to me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Potter Scoring Project 547 Posted August 31, 2022 Author Share Posted August 31, 2022 @WampaRat Thank you! This last movie (or 2 depending how you see it) has been a joy so far cause it's mostly payoff. @bored It's so funny you say that. Firstly, thank you for wanting to hear more of a theme JW didn't write. That means a lot haha. I will say that at this point in the series, there are so many options in every scene with regards to what themes are usable. This is mostly because it's the finale of the series but also because so many characters are on screen at any given time. In the end, I treated the opening of this last movie with a lot of SS/COS/POA reverence, and used the OOTP theme just once for reprisal purposes when the group arrives in Cue 3. In the end, I'd say it's just coming down to not over-cluttering the cues with too many theme reprises. They ended up cancelling each other out when I tried that.

Popular Post Potter Scoring Project 547 Posted September 18, 2022 Author Popular Post Share Posted September 18, 2022 @bored Thank you! That's so nice of you to say considering they're not even JW's themes, haha. The Window to the Past moment, however, was a joy to put over that scene in Sirius' old room. @Light00 Thanks as always for such nice comments! So, it was not intentional to put time past material over the scene, but I see what you're saying. The intention was really to have a consistent pulse to unify the montage, and to put a sense of urgency below the scene. I like your observation though! It's great to have people see things like this in the cues! As for new cues, we get to break into the Ministry this week for the beginning of the first big set piece in the film! Hope you enjoy Cue No. 12: Sneaking into the Ministry. BP Light00, bored and Dave 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post Potter Scoring Project 547 Posted September 25, 2022 Author Popular Post Share Posted September 25, 2022 Today we've got the next part of the Ministry break-in, Cue No. 13: Umbridge's Office. There's some colorful comedic orchestration for the Detonators and some throwbacks to OOTP (which were fun to work on with some better sound). Thanks for listening!

MS Love the playful comedic “ticking” vibe with the distractions. Gives me some “ Hook’s Madness” vibes Potter Scoring Project 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Potter Scoring Project 547 Posted October 2, 2022 Author Share Posted October 2, 2022 Alright - it's time to escape the Ministry and get thrown into the middle of the film! There are some fun callbacks as the trio gets the Horcrux and runs for the floo network. We hope you enjoy Cue No. 14: Escaping the Ministry!

Potter Scoring Project 547 Posted October 9, 2022 Author Share Posted October 9, 2022 Alright the next phase of the trio's final journey has begun! We are not out of the woods yet (both literally and metaphorically now). Here's Cue No. 15: Vision of Grindelwald and Cue No. 16: The Snatchers! bored and Dave 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post Potter Scoring Project 547 Posted October 16, 2022 Author Popular Post Share Posted October 16, 2022 Two short cues provide some emotions today. Most is non-thematic as the trio move in new directions. Here is Cue No. 17: Three Wanderers and Cue No. 18: Ron's Departure!

The way the cue builds from that single harp line - Isolating, desperate, uncertain. Bravo! Potter Scoring Project 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
