Composing & Writing on the spot (creating the foundation)

    It’s been about 2 weeks since I bought the Canon 5d Mark ii. And this is the first time I shot video on it. I did the track in less than 60 minutes. Just building up a foundation to the track and then later on do some real production to it. What I usually like to do is lay down a skeleton track, see if I can sing a melody to see if inspired melodies are delivered, and then write to it with a certain arrangement to the track. After it’s written (which isn’t on this track specifically), I then start “real” production. If live strings are needed or adding more drums and other sounds, then that’s what I need to do.

    So here’s a clip of laying down the foundation to the track. Leave me comments or questions on my forum so I may answer it. Thanks
