| Overview I need a simple melody to play in the background. You have learned that simple melody can tell an entire story. Your instructor (that's me!) is creating a film score for the Super 16mm motion picture short called "Graduation Day". I need your help" I need a simple melody that explains the motives and background of the villian. Here is the sound I currently am using. It does not sound like a Catholic Mass. Please help: GD Music Cue 2.ogg | "Graduation Day" Super 16mm motion picture short This is a 5-minute motion picture which is currently in post production (2007-05-26) Musical Cue #2 - A young choir boy A simple melody musical cue The villian is thinking about his childhood as an abused choir boy.

| Software Apple's GarageBand plus the sounds of a symphony orchestra I am creating this film score using GarageBand and Jam Pack:Symphony Orchestra. Next week, I will be getting MUTO's Symphonic Instrument which has additional musical instruments for GarageBand. Using just this combination, I need a GarageBand project file which creates the feeling of mild discomfort. Currently, I am using a violin trill cord. I need a better cord but I don't know how to do this. Can you help me?
