Create an original score for the approximately 1 minute 20 second introduction to a feature-length documentary following two recruits through Marine Corps boot camp. The music should be an epic, menacing interpretation of the Marine Corps Hymn that supports the pacing and tone of the finished intro.

The editor will provide the intro cut both with and without temporary music, along with reference tracks to guide the desired sound, energy, and structure. The score should be written and delivered in sync with the edit, with polished production suitable for documentary release.

Please include relevant examples of cinematic, orchestral, or dramatic scoring work. There may be opportunities to score additional sections of the documentary following this piece.

Budget range:
Very small project ($250 – 750 USD)

About the client
I’m a Marine serving as a combat videographer, meaning it’s my job to, among other things, make videos for the Marine Corps and help tell its story. A buddy and I shot this documentary earlier this year and now we’re getting the post-production done on it. This music would be part of that. If all goes well and we find someone we like working with, there are some other parts of the video we’d probably also want musical help with, if you’d be interested in continuing to work together. Open to discussing the budget, but we don’t have anyone funding this, it’s just coming out of my pocket, so we wouldn’t be able to do anything too crazy. We can offer you modest monetary compensation but hope that working on a cool, unique project like this and having your work seen by a lot of people (our work is pretty regularly seen by hundreds of thousands of people) will make your time and effort worth it.
