A Fire Within - Title Theme for my First Short-Film

no.10_A Fire Within.pdf

Hello everyone! It has been a few weeks since my last contribution on the site and I am back to showcase one of my recent works. Over the last calendar year, I have been creating my first short-film called A Fire Within. When the film is complete, you follow the tragedy between two friends and see a main theme of betrayal. This work is the title theme and will both open and end the film. 

Set into a large binary form, this work is in E-minor and is one of my most emotional pieces. It is very personal to me, as the whole story mirrors a small part of my short life. I would enjoy hearing some comments or feedback, however, please know that I feel this work complete and I wish to share it to those I feel would appreciate this. If you would like to know more about the score, go to the "About" section on page 4!

Program Note:
A Fire Within is an original story written by Mason Kistler detailing betrayal between two friends. Featuring an original soundtrack, soundscape, voice cast and more, this story established itself as the first short-film made solely in the video game Railroader, which was released in December, 2023. Join the orchestra as they bring you in towards this cinematic universe and involve yourself in their soundscape. Feel the impact of the strings and the memories cast by the French Horns. Can you hear their emotions?

Hi again @MK_Piano!

A passionate and emotional piece fitting for the theme of betrayal.  I tried to find the YT video on your channel that goes with this music but couldn't find it.  Perhaps I would understand the music better if I could watch that?  Thanks for sharing, great job, and by all means, post the video link in this thread!

The video is not out yet as the short-film is still in production. It is the first installment of the soundtrack I am making. I was planning ahead in the about section for the day I post the entire Soundtrack and publish the scores.

However, you can hear it partially in this 60-second teaser I made on YT last year. It was an earlier draft and is not what I published here:
