Abstract

My culminating experience, or my master’s thesis at Berklee College of Music, submitted in partial fulfillment of the master’s program in Scoring for Film, TV and Video Games, was to score an original 3-minute cue for orchestra set to an original script. The score, Jade Bones, was recorded in the final semester of the program, at AIR Studios in London.

The purpose of this paper is to chronicle the creative and technical process of my culminating experience from conceptualization to realization, explore my obstacles and inspiration, as well as reflect on my musical and personal growth throughout the duration of this project.
