Listen to Red Jacket Short Film Soundtrack 

As I had mentioned in my previous post, my passion around movies had led me to make a short film. Red Jacket is the realization of my dreams. The film is a bilingual (Kannada and Tamil) revenge drama and is in its final post-production stages. Thanks to my passionate team who rolled along with my passion and dream. Ashok is the music composer of the film.  Ashok and I have had long discussions on the BGM (Background music) and how it could add an additional layer to the visuals.  The journey lead us to explore each of the characters and emotions in form of music. The result of this journey has turned into an album. Before I write more here are the Kannada and Tamil versions of the album for you to listen to.

and other platforms like Spotify, Napster, Amazon MP3

 

The album is an orchestration of music with human emotions. The album is in line with the genre of the movie, explores the dark side of the human emotions with an emphasis on desire, greed, anger and pride. These tracks capture the essence of the emotional depth in building each of the characters. The tracks are designed in a way that can provide the pleasure of listening without having watched the film.

Kannada Teaser:

After 2 years of running a blog on movie reviews, my passion towards movies and the movie making process has only grown more. So I decided to experience a movie making process first hand. I created a short film script for a 20-minute short film and decided to direct it. I am happy to announce that the short film is at a completion stage and we released the teaser for the short film yesterday.

The film is a revenge drama, a typical pulp fiction. I chose this genre as I felt this would allow me to experiment the aspects of movie making I wanted to. I request you to view the teaser and do share your comments.

The entire movie making process was very humbling and an eye opener in many aspects. The biggest experience has been witnessing how much the entire process relies on collaboration wherein every individual involved is accountable to make the movie an impeccable product.

Once I release the movie I plan to share some of the highlights of the journey I had traveled, the learnings, about my crew and many more aspects that would be useful for aspiring movie makers. In case any of you have any suggestion on a specific area of movie-making I should start with, share it in the comments I can start with it.

I have included the youtube videos of the teaser on top of this post. Hope you enjoy it. I am eager to hear your comments.
