Here's a Studio Ghibli-esque animation where I did music and sound design

Music was mixed by Jake Jackson.

I agree - the music is really nicely done!

Wow, this is awesome ! Great job, would you be interested in doing something similar for an indie game?


How do you feel about transitioning to a Mech themed soundtrack?

Thanks guys! Can you send me an email lauri (AT) laurikoivisto (DOT) Com

I'd like to know what sample libraries were used for creating this. Perhaps even a behind-the-scenes on your approach and process would be super helpful to the forum if you had time!

Samples are mostly Orchestral Tools. There's VSL harp and a solo flute from Symphobia 2 but thats it. 

My process is pretty simple. First score the film on my DAW (Nuendo) with just a piano, then export the midi file to Sibelius.

After i've done the "shortscore" it looks like this https://www.dropbox.com/s/59c9cfbg0ncum42/TRAVEL_OREGON_ONLY_SLIGHTLY_EXAGGERATED.pdf?dl=0

Then I orchestrate it and it looks like this

And once its done, I play the individual parts to my DAW.

It's really quick and efficient workflow.

Here's the finished work

Nice job!!
