For my draft, I began to take some footage of various locations. My final essay will be a lot longer, but the for the draft I wanted to practice writing music against scenery. As I was writing, I wanted to suggest a certain mood. I think the mood that comes off this footage is nostalgic and soothing. I want the audience to embrace the beauty our world has to offer and I think certain tunes can really help with that. I want to go further, and capture different parts of the world, including the constant NYC rush, maybe some footage of Central Park, possibly some footage from the top of the Empire State Building.

I haven’t quite figured out yet what kind of story I want to tell. I’m thinking maybe tell the story of how our race is so caught up with their own lives, that nobody has time to take a break and enjoy what’ s around them. Music will distinguish the rushed, aggravated and stressed life from the calm, tranquil and peaceful moments that seem to be rare in this world.
