The following are my plans for the partial soundtrack, including a track listing as well as what I wish for them to sound like. Some of these will probably not be included in the final project portfolio due to time constraints. Therefore, I shall put a star against the tracks which I will definitely make sure to create for the final portfolio.
1. Studio Titles *
This will just be a small theme for the metaphoric 'studios' which would be creating the production. This should be big and bombastic with a big brass section.
2. 'Something Is Killing My Men' *
This will introduce the tone and style of the rest of the soundtrack. It will start quietly will droning strings and a short brass piece which should help to create a mysterious and tense atmosphere.
3. Main Title- The Awakening *
The previous track should then segue into this big and bombastic piece which will play over the opening titles. This will probably be the track I will work on the most as it is the one that will be used the most throughout various examples of the production. A big brass section will be present as well as a large string section, creating a theme which sounds partly heroic, yet also dark and foreboding.
4.The Long Road To The Keep *
This will be a quiet and sombre march piece which will reflect the perilous journey though the Transylvanian Alps towards The Keep.
5. Molasar Is Released *
As the villain is released from his prison, this piece will start off quiet with a subtle piano and harp section before suddenly becoming distorted. By the climax, synthesizers will be heavily incorporated as if the demon's presence has an effect on the music itself.
6. 'Bright Eyes'
7. Theodore & Magda Cuza *
This track will be less dark with use of an acoustic guitar along with quiet strings and should reflect on the father and daughter relationship between the two characters and the troublesome situations they are finding themselves in.
8. Erich Kaempffer & The SS *
As the theme of the secondary villain and his troops, this should also be a dark and foreboding theme through it will retain the traditional orchestra sound.
9. Main Title- The Convergence
10. Saved By The Demon *
This should be a reversal of how the demon is represented, almost as a thing of wonder as it rescues Magda from several SS officers. A choir and string sound should be used in oder to achieve this.
11. Molasar
12. Main Title- Ultimatum
13. Magda And The Stranger
14. Molasar Is Complete
15. Main Title- Annihilation *
This will be the same as the opening titles except some of the instruments will be replaced in order to reflect on how the demon's presence is also effecting the music and visual style of the show.
16. 'Take It!'
17. The Stranger Strides Forth *
This should be a more heroic theme which should build slowly as the Stranger steps forward and prepares to face Molasar.
18. Reunited.
A quieter version of the main theme, almost as an end coda to finish the narrative.
19. Credits/ Full Theme
A full version of the main isolated theme without the pre-teaser part.
