The Stage 32 Videos: Rescore

Here's a look at the finished cue inside Cubase before it's married to picture. This project was a great exercise in thematic writing, orchestration, and hitting the dramatic beats of the scene while finding a musical identity of its own. Rescoring films is always a reminder that every cue is a balance between supporting the story and giving it a fresh perspective. I'd love to hear your thoughts!

After sharing the behind-the-scenes process yesterday, I've now finished my rescore of this Mission: Impossible (1996) scene. I made several changes to improve the overall flow and dramatic impact. Some of the updates include refining the thematic material, adjusting the orchestration, improving the pacing around key hit points, and polishing the mix to better support the action on screen. One thing this project reinforced is just how challenging it is to rescore a film with such a strong musical identity. Lalo Schifrin's iconic theme is deeply associated with the franchise, so the goal wasn't to recreate or compete with it, but to explore a different musical perspective while still serving the scene. Rescoring continues to be one of my favorite ways to study film music. It pushes me to think about storytelling, timing, emotion, and how music can completely reshape the audience's experience of a scene. I'd love to hear your thoughts. What worked well? Is there anything you would have approached differently? Mission: Impossible is owned by its respective copyright holders.

I spent today working on a new rescore of a scene from Mission: Impossible (1996). The cue isn't quite finished yet, but I thought it would be fun to share a little behind-the-scenes look at the process. In this video, I walk through some of the creative decisions involved in scoring to picture, including: • Finding and creating hit points • Building thematic ideas and variations • Orchestration choices • Synchronizing the music with the action and pacing on screen A quick apology in advance: I accidentally left a gate on my microphone while recording the commentary, so the audio cuts in and out a little in places. I'll definitely make sure that doesn't happen next time! I always enjoy seeing how other composers approach score-to-picture, so I'd love to hear your thoughts, feedback, or even how you tackle similar scenes.

One of my favorite ways to grow as a film composer is by rescoring scenes from great films. This is my latest score-to-picture exercise based on a scene from The Revenant. The original music has been completely removed, allowing me to build a new musical narrative from the ground up. Rather than trying to imitate the original score, my goal was to explore a different emotional perspective while remaining faithful to the pacing, tension, and storytelling on screen. Every cue was written to support the performances and the cinematic language of the scene. Exercises like these are invaluable—they challenge timing, orchestration, dramatic instincts, and the ability to let the music serve the picture rather than compete with it. I'd genuinely love to hear your thoughts. Feedback from fellow filmmakers and composers is always appreciated.

Scoring to picture is one of my favourite parts of composing, and projects like this are a great way to experiment with storytelling through music.

This is a personal score-to-picture exercise based on a scene from Pixar's Up. The original music has been removed, and I composed and produced an entirely new orchestral score to explore how music can support character, emotion, and storytelling. This project was created as part of my ongoing development as a film composer and reflects my approach to writing music that serves the narrative while respecting the pacing and emotional arc of the scene.

Hello everyone! I’m thrilled to share my latest rescore of “OCEAN”, a powerful visual from Cue Tube, reimagined with my own cinematic composition. This score combines emotional melody, detailed timbral textures, and atmospheric pacing—crafted to support the visual narrative with both musical storytelling and immersive sonic environments. It’s a hybrid approach where orchestral elements meet cinematic sound design, focusing on emotional transitions, timing, and character. This piece is part of my ongoing film scoring portfolio. If you're a director or creative looking for a composer who builds immersive scores blending melody, mood, and texture, I’d love to connect and collaborate! Looking forward to hearing your thoughts and meeting fellow storytellers here on Stage 32.
