Hey guys, I am a 17yrold filmmaker, and I need some advice/help. I purchased ZebraHZ and Zebra hoping to learn to write my own music for my films. I can confidently say that I am learning subtractive synthesis, but not so much the writing music part. I have a short film that has been sitting on my computer for too long now, and the only reason it isn't finished is due to not having a composer. I am looking for someone out there who primarily uses Zebra (it will fit the film perfectly) to aid me in completing this task, or to recommend someone to me that could possibly write music for the film. Attached is a short part from the film, and accompanying it is some of Mr. Hans Zimmer's Inception score. I keep it there to help me edit as it establishes the rhythm for the piece. Anyways, if anyone on here is interested just let me know, and thank you again. I also ask that you do not share the link with anyone other than users of this forum, as the film is not yet finished.
Thank you so much. Zebra is the best thing ever created.
Looking for composer for short film...

I don't work with Zebra, but I am a composer and I've done some film work. I can't promise anything until I know more, but PM me with some specifics and I will give it some thought.

The clip looks really good. Better than some film makers I know that are twice your age. 
It would help to know the approximate run time. It will give us an idea of the commitment needed.
Also, what are your plans for the film once it is finished? Film festivals? etc.

Thanks guys. I'm glad you're enjoying it. As I am still in high school, the main point of the film is to go on my portfolio. I plan on using it to apply for film school, and because it will only run about 8 minutes in length, I didn't plan on submitting it to film festivals.

Very nice short film -- done very well. The music sounded fine in it.
I recommend you trying vimeo.com. Judging from that site, composers are easy to come by. There seems to be a very high ratio of composers to film makers. I'm a composer of sorts, and I tell fellow composers, "we are the lowest form of life".

Thanks again guys. Would anyone here know how David Julyan created some of his sounds for Memento/Following? Maybe have a go at recreating some of his synth sounds? Thanks.
Here is a link to some of his great stuff.

Well now, I'm a composer and my name is Michael Rees, but I barely remember age 17 anymore. ™ & © infringement! 
Most people wouldn't know good music if it bit them in the ass. –FZ

I did not use the Zebra in this song, but curious if you would be interested in having this song in your movie:

I have had 19 original songs get radio play (including the radio BBC and a radio station in the USA).

Nicely looking vid. Looks professional to say the least from the visual side. Lighting etc very good. The actor could be bit more convincing when talks, but still all right.
Taken out of the context the clip with the music makes sense. When you say it is 8 min long it's worth thinking of making proportional "scaled" soundtrack to match the movie weight. Also knowing the ending is important to properly "size" the sonic apogeum.
