This is how I make sure the score supports the story, not detract from it.
Every creative decision in this film came back to one question: does this serve the story?
They say the best scores are often the ones that are more felt than heard, either way as long as the willing audience are taken on a heart felt journey from start to finish, then the mission is a success.
That’s the goal. Every time. Here’s how watching @danmacpherson train so hard affected my process.

As the eldest Hemsworth brother, Luke was the first to step in front of the camera, building his early career in Australian TV before breaking through internationally with Westworld and beyond - all while carving out his own identity alongside brothers Chris and Liam.
Luke reflects on his unexpected journey into acting, leaving the US and his latest action film ‘Beast’, sharing why he believes Australian stories still deserve a bigger place on the world stage.

Scoring Beast meant finding the sound of something primal. The music had to sit inside the fight, not above it, driving the emotion without telling the audience how to feel.This is a look at how that came together.

What a film! What a joy to host the Australian premiere of BEAST last night. Extraordinary performance by Daniel Macpherson. Tyler Atkins has made a beautiful film in a violent world. And great work from all the cast, Luke Hemsworth Amy Shark, Matt Nable and Russell Crowe all shine. And a shout out to our Australian crews… creating something truly international on an Australian budget. John and Michael Schwarz once again produce a great film! Bravo!
