I wrote this orchestral theme a few months ago...
it is a theme that has not shown it´s variations yet because of the situation of the film... in film music we call this a "cue"... because it cannot have a specific form always, because the music follows an image and human movenment..

1. Techniques used: I sinchronized with a "watch", pencil and paper... some counterpoint at the end with the string section, a lot of "silence" and "space" because of the film...
2. How long it took to compose the piece: it took me one day (don´t know exactly how many hours) to write the theme and the notes i wanted, but several days to re-write the piece for "orchestra" since i wrote it as a sketch first...
3. Structure of your piece: it doesn´t have a specific structure.... i can only call it a cue or an unfinished theme..
4. Obstacles when composing: It was very difficult to create music that followed so many human moves... also the fact that i sinchronized with a watch because i didn´t have any sinchronization software by then (now i do)...
5. Summary of overall piece: it Starts with a theme that ,later on, i used in the film, but this is only a cue, or part of the scene, so the theme could not be developed yet...
here´s the midi file: [attachmentid=3036]
