Pendragon on composers site

[FALLINGSTAR]

Don't know if anyone else has noticed but there's a bit about Pendragons film on music composer Jamie Halls site - www.jamiehall.net

Now I don't wish to criticise Jamie Hall as he's most probably a talented upcoming musician/ composer but if you go to this following page -

www.pnwfilmmusic.com/gallery.asp

and scroll down you'll see some films [ if that's what they are ] that he's composed music for. I might be wrong but these to me look like nothing more than student short film projects.

I was under the impression that Jamie Hall had actually composed the music for one legitimate film that was in cinemas called Rocketman which I thought was the comedy of a few years back- but the Rocketman on this page again appears to be a student made film project or at the most something that might have been shown on the local cable tv etc for amateur films.

It seems a giant leap to me from composing music for college film type projects to composing the soundtrack to perhaps the greatest sci fi story of them all.

Having said that I can't say I'm that surprised considering the situation with Pendragon.

I suspect the major film you're thinking of is "The Rocketeer". It looks like composer Halls has some TV music to his credit, but yes it does appear this is his first feature film. I see he's won some awards, too. Here's hoping his music will be up to the level of the story!

No The Rocketeer is from the early 90's and it's as you'll most probably be aware a film about a man with a jet pack and helmet flying around in 30's America.

The film I was thinking of was a comedy and I think it was made by Disney. It was called Rocketman and there was a chimpanzee in one of the starring roles. I'll check again on the net after.

Right you are, Fallingstar, on both counts.
