The Canvasser - Film Festival Trailer

The first trailer for our feature film, The Canvasser, starring Scott Blurton, Vilma Pastuszak and Erika Mallett.

 

“Five years ago, we got this crazy idea: to make a feature film about the silliness and seriousness of municipal election campaigns. Thanks to your hard work, the movie is almost complete! ”

— Scott Blurton, Director of The Canvasser

Preparing the Film Score

Over most of 2020 and now half of 2021, I have been hard at work at crafting and orchestrating The Canvasser’s official film score. Powered by the latest Kontakt virtual symphonic libraries, The Canvasser Film Score features over 56 minutes of original music to enhance the impact of key scenes. Check out the SoundCloud player to hear how each of the tracks are developing.
