Book! (2024)
"Book!" (2024) by animator Chris Georgenes.
Original score composed and performed by Munk Duane
When Chris asked me to compose the score for the film, I had a few knee-jerk ideas in mind but the moment I put my hands on the keyboard (and the DAW), this little homage to composers Vince Guaraldi (Charlie Brown) and Carl Stalling (classic era Warner Brothers cartoons) is what came out.
Chris says, "The concept for this animated short started back in 2009 with the audio recording of my daughter who was only 6 years old at the time. The audio files sat in a folder on a hard drive in a desk drawer for the next 13 years before it was rediscovered in 2022. I promised myself I would finally finish what I started."
I've composed quite a few things I'm proud of but this one is extra special.
