An innovative approach to film production.
“I came to the project with a vision of using this music to pull out the extreme emotion we’re all experiencing during this pandemic. It truly was an experiment in what can be possible under extreme limitations. We called on the creative community to ‘show us what you got’ and the response was beyond what we could have imagined. I’m so proud of this piece, and what we were all able to accomplish together!”
– Ashley Maria, Director
The music is dazzling modern acoustic filled with the high energy storytelling of creator/co-producer David Raiklen’s signature cinematic sounds.
“Our orchestration is all acoustic and recorded live. Lights is an 8 part augmented reality musical journey though a fantasy world that ranges from tranquil and traditional to experimental and high energy. The amazing video for part V is subtitled WILD RIDE and I strive to give us a sense of flying quickly to far away places with friends”
– David Raiklen, Creator-Composer
