'Cars' Opening Scene (Film Soundtrack Project)

I was tasked with recreating the soundtrack for the opening scene of the Disney film ‘Cars’ - creating an orchestral piece, rather than the original rock song: ‘Real Gone’, by Sheryl Crow.

Disney Pixar’s ‘Cars’ is an animated film that follows the journey of Lightning McQueen, a cocky race car, who unexpectedly finds himself in the small town of Radiator Springs, learning the value of friendship, and the importance of slowing down to enjoy life.

I used Spitfire’s BBC Symphony Orchestra for the majority of the instruments, whilst also using a multitude of stock Logic Pro X plugins, and Valhalla VintageVerb to add space and depth to the piece.
