philj: Against the Crowd has gone silent but a number of us would like to see it relaunched. I am hoping that we can relaunch as a sister company and be able to amalgamate the two if ever Against the Crowd takes off again. Aug 22, 2021 16:26:18 GMT *

lmvox: Hi all, we didn't make the finals with our productions, I made the final for best actress for Digital Commute, so that's something. Here's to next year!!!! Nov 21, 2016 20:12:00 GMT

Just a random idea (and obviously I'm biased), but I think it could be neat to put together a soundtrack of music from all of our various productions. Kind of a "Greatest Hits of Against the Crowd", with some of everyone's favorite musical pieces from our various stories. We'd probably need a few more stories under our belts to make it long enough, and of course Bill and any other composers would need to give permission, but I just figured it was an idea worth throwing out there.

Thoughts?

I always liked isolated scores/music suites for things. Maybe our audience (whomever they might be) will enjoy that too!

It's fine by me. I thought the music for Wagon stood up on its own no problem and like Robin I enjoy listening to isolated scores while I work. I can't see anyone objecting to their music being used in such a complilation either. Sounds like a project for you Cole, maybe, as you say, once we've got a few more under our belt. Sequencing the music so it made sense when listened to as a whole would take some thought but I'm sure you're more than capable.

Cole I'm sure you have all the areas covered but if you need any help let me know. I run a small record label/publishing company and would be willing to help if you need it.

Cole, I'll gladly help out! Are we thinking of just putting a podcast together with all the music pieces and then releasing that?

At this point we're just lobbing around ideas, but what you've just said actually intrigues me. What if we did a special podcast/show down the line (after we have a few more productions finished), where we showcased a piece or two from each of our works, with someone kind of introducing/talking a little about each one? Kind of a "Behind the Music of Against the Crowd", haha

Alternatively we could release a "Greatest Hits" album, and just have the individual tracks available to download somewhere.

I like both of those ideas.
I think definitely a Greatest Hits Album can be done easily...but you have really hit on an idea with the "Behind the Music of Against the Crowd" and I think it would be great to open that up a bit more giving a little background on the stories too and showcasing the music/composers a bit, darn it Cole you have just opened up a can of worm ideas now!!! LOLOL The possibilities are endless here....we could actually have small interview segments with the composers and the actual writers of the pieces talking about their influences and why they wrote the pieces, how the composers draw their inspiration from the drama pieces, the recording process for the composers etc., how not to overshadow what's happening but still make it dramatic. It could really be interesting and informative too. I would love to draft up some ideas on this with you and get feedback and thoughts from everyone on it.

I think doing an 'extras' show with interviews with various producers, writers, actors and composers around here is a fine idea Imvox and you and Cole are the ideal people to put it together. Maybe have at least one person involved in every show we've done so far explain their role in it, and something about their background as well. Taken together it would give people an idea about all the different skills it takes to put audios like these together and encourage more people to join us, but also do their own.

Well, I'll leave it to you two to put it together, maybe with Imvox hosting it, making contact with members and doing some interviews with various people and you picking out some music highlights, explaining how you score something and producing the show. I think doing one show which covers the lot, rather than two, might be the way to go, not least because we've only done half a dozen shows so far.

I would be happy to contribute. I have some longer and alternate versions of stuff I've done for ATC that might be interesting. "Behind the scenes" material would be fun to make too.

Cole and Bill,
I have been ill for the past couple of weeks but am back in action! Be afraid! LOL
I have some work that I have to catch up on so most likely next week I will throw some drafts ideas down and if you guys could do the same, we can pitch them back and forth if that's ok? Just PM me your thoughts :-)
