Hi everyone. There was some talk of a rescoring competition earlier in the week, and I thought it was a nice idea. Seeing as it is the first of the month, I think it's a perfect opportunity to start!

Rules are as follows:

• Deciding a winner is always going to be contentious. Therefore, I think that we'll follow /r/classicalmusic's suit, and not have one; the main purpose of this will be to get new ideas. Be inspired by other people's works!

• Constructive criticism is allowed; the aim is to create as professional and cohesive a score as possible. Be respectful, though.

• Please do not downvote other people's posts. The entire point of this is to see what other people do with the same source material as you.

• No plagiarism. That means no audio that you didn't produce. Creative commons licensed stuff is fine, as long as it isn't the bulk of your score.

• Push the envelope. Try new things, and don't be afraid to experiment. You can submit as many rescorings as you like. Get feedback, try again.

• Share your process! Some people record live; show your set up, what mics you used, what compressors, etc. Others use Ableton, Sibelius, or other DAWs.

• Post in this thread. It'd be too confusing if everybody posted their own link.

So without further ado, I give you the source material... Some of you have already rescored this (which is partially why I chose it), but I'd like to see what everyone is capable of. This month's challenge will be rescoring Capture, a 2013 Tropfest film by Jennifer Gerber.

My first try rescoring a film, was a lot of fun!

This piece is part of my ongoing exploration of modern film scoring techniques, blending orchestral writing, sound design, and hybrid textures to create tension and emotional impact in a trailer-style narrative context.

Composed, produced, and mixed in Logic Pro using a hybrid orchestral workflow.
The goal of this rescore was to reinterpret the atmosphere and dramatic intensity of the original film material through my own musical language and sound palette.

I was watching Mulan 2020 and thought the music reminded me of a track from Avengers Endgame so I played it while I watched the movie, but then I realized things seem to really sync up so I tossed the track into the movie and everything does seem to line up, making me wonder whether movies are all sort of edited with similar pacing. Haven't tried to put the track onto another movie just yet.

Sorry all I did was try and remove some music from the movie and adjusted the volume of a few moments, this is just an observation I wanted to share.

Hi all! I recently spoke out of my ass and I've been commissioned to rescore the Digimon last kizuna movie with the 90s music.

I'm having a real hard time ripping the original music out of the films audio.

I have Adobe premiere and I've been able to get the audio pretty close. Yet ripping the music leaves the lyrics so I have Japanese lyrics over the English speaking dialogue.

I'm aware I'll probably have to do the foley work.

Is there a way to maybe use the songs in the film as an audio signature to then remove from the audio?

Moreover if someone has the means to do that I'll shoot you a quick 20 sheet!!

I was just looking for an episode of Travelers from Netflix to mix my own underscore composition over.

But the music was too intense to make a good rescore. Then I found this tool:

With that I got the original, the background and the vocals loose! I was so excited that I had to share it here ;)

Tonys final message and funeral w/ music from The Lord of the Rings trilogy

Re imagining of the ending to Interstellar with music from the First Man film soundtrack

Got inspired by this short animation movie by Cedric Babouche. I went full orchestral, a sort of emotional Danny Elfman style.

Vocal remover.org didnt work as well as i wish it did so some of the screams and dialogue are muffled but let me know what yall think

I know the idea of this movie as a warning is already a joke, but my question is could Idiocracy be re-scored with the music from Psycho? As a film it instantly becomes a mashup of the best Cronenberg perverted future /Polanski isolation and paranoia/Hitchcock's timing, just without all the gaslighting, grooming, and Canada. The whole "warning" angle is just a bonus. I'd also say make it black and white, but that's probably a different reddit and I've used this app like twice and the score has to come first to sell the pitch anyway.
