As I said in my previous post, my aim was to have some form of proto-soundtrack ready for rushes this week. Well, rushes are tomorrow, and my soundtrack is proto indeed:
--LINK!--
I've added new establishing shots, as promised; rewritten the particularly hideous diologue, as promised; and I've even forced my girlfriend to rerecorded my hideous female impression of it.
All in all, a good couple of days work. I'd have done a lot more, but I lost several days by going home for a posh Christmas do, don't you know.
I'm fairly happy with the music. It is, for want of a better phrase, much too epic for a story set in a shopping mall; and I'm slightly afraid that it distracts from the action for that reason.
The main reason for it is that I wanted something reasonably fast-paced, as this is essentially a chase, and it boiled down to either being slightly too epic or far too techno; so I chose the lesser of two evils.
In places it is too upbeat when it should be downbeat, and conversely so - and throughout it is a tiny bit too heroic for a shoplifter-cum-murderer. But it is the best I have found (and I promise that I did try a lot of musics) and I do like it.
And, for all my foibles with the main score, the ambient elevator moozak is nigh on perfect.

Where are your character and background concept designs? Like to see them posted before you go ahead and begin animation. Don't get a sense of 3D animation from your animatic, it could be a 2D piece!
i love the crash bang whallop voiced sound effects, soo funny you could almost leave them in...
