Press Start

Since the release date was announced, I figured I’d start the hype machine over here, and let you know I’m scoring my first full-length movie!

Press Start is an independent film by Dark Maze Studios, directed by Ed Glaser. It’s a “comedy/adventure” parodying tons of classic video games at once, portraying their various cliches – character archetypes and plot devices – in a real-world setting.

Oh yeah, and it guest-stars the Pesina brothers, better known as RAIDEN AND JOHNNY CAGE. And yes, they get to kick some ass.

I’ve been wanting to get my feet wet in film for a long time, but was worried I didn’t have the skill or resources necessary to produce a serious soundtrack. But I got around that with this project – since this movie is videogame-themed, it’s a great transition because I can comfortably mix my game music styles and epic orchestration without taking either too seriously.

So, September 25th, get ready to order the DVD – and spread the word! The world needs more video game movies that aren’t made by Uwe Boll!

    From your description, it sounds like Mega64 ( http://www.mega64.com ) on a much grander scale. I’ll have to check it out.
