Marketing the Messiah – Opening Titles (Score Excerpt)

Original score for the opening titles of Marketing the Messiah (2020), directed by Cameron Reilly.

This 33-second cue combines piano, organ, and choir to create an intentionally intense and quasi-liturgical atmosphere, subtly playing with expectations to introduce the film’s ironic and humorous tone.

The music balances dramatic weight with underlying irony, establishing both the subject matter and the documentary’s perspective from the very first moment.
