Description
A fantasy soundtrack composed to an open world exploration game with a set storyline. I started composing each track by bridging out the story and what I wanted vaguely then writing songs to build the world and define the image in my head my clearly. I used ProTools for all of this

Story: Starting the game, we see the main character in a world practically in ruins. A sunset lit up with fires and smoke seen from outside a train window. The main character starts on a train trying to run away from the problems in his life. While on the train this old man in fancy clothing approaches him and tells him his problems are far beyond this world. Wanting to know more, the main character asks what he means, and the old man opens a portal for the main character right in the train car. Stepping through the main character enters an open world more beautiful than anything he has ever seen. Creatures unlike anything on Earth and surprisingly all calm. The main character finds this civilization that tells him about a wishing well so powerful it can change lives. Motivated, he sets out to find where it lies deep in the Magical Forest. Full of obstacles that challenge the main character to see if they are persistent enough to deserve their wish.

Endings:
There are 2 different endings. The main character could wish his world to be more peaceful and return, or the main character wishes to stay in this world and join the people in the Town of Listern and live with them forever as one of their species

Theme:

Runaway

Picture theme

How does it fit the theme?
The Main Character is running away from his problems and his world and at the end of the game decides to keep running away or turn and face them to change them.

Songs:
1. The Escape(running away from a world of hatred and war, to another world of peace and bliss)

2. Why do you Run(a reflective environmental track combining the instrumentation of the new world with the motif of The Escape key-ed up)

3. Magic of the Forest(exploration into uncharted lands. A journey into the world hidden behind thick layers of trees.)

4. Town of Listern(a town in the forest hidden away and protected by the magic. They tell the main character of a wishing well that has the power to grant just one wish to a person with the desire and will power to find it.)

5. Listern after dark(When the town sleeps, the main character heads out into the darkness of the forest. Only guided by the light of bioluminescent creatures)

6 .The Wishing Well(A well hidden deep in the forest, told to grant any wish to those who are dedicated enough to find it. Track itself is environmental to the area)
