Now that I was ready to send my nearly finished edit to the musician I had to think into what I wanted from the music track. I had been thinking about this for a long time through out this process and had spoken to him a few times about his. However I hadn't got myself set on something very specific because I wanted my brother to interpret my visuals and make music for this childhood memory how he saw best as he also went through a very similar experience with me as my brother. I did however give him guidance because I needed it to flow with the visuals. I thought about the story, the emotions I wanted, sounds I liked, inspiration I had heard etc and used all this to write myself a rough list of everything I needed to mention to him. Here is the email I then wrote him consisting of all of that:
The musician then phoned me to let me know he had received this email and was very happy with everything I had said and suggested. He said he will be getting to work shortly and if he has any issues he will give me call. I will also be seeing him in person very soon so we are going to use this meeting as a chance to discuss any questions if he does have any at all. He has given me a preliminary rough date of completion which will be the 9th April so I am very happy about this because it is sooner than I was expecting due to set backs. I am very happy with how things are progressing so far and I am excited to receive the music track.
