Wing Commander Movie Clip With A Side Of WC3 (October 24, 2017)

[ChrisReid]

AD recently recut one of the Wing Commander Movie's featurettes clips with a sampling of George Oldziey's Wing Commander 3/4 music. Although the film's actual soundtrack is pretty great, this is still a neat trick to see how it changes the tone. Since the game music is so ingrained in people's minds, I could see how this might create something of a subconscious linkage to players' cockpit experiences. And whether it does or not, this is a pretty cool behind-the-scenes video that you might not have seen before, so it's definitely worth checking out!

This is the movie's making-of featurette re-edited from the EPK. The visuals aren't too different. Mostly I've changed to music to music from wc3 + 4 thanks to George Oldziey's lovely orchestrations and I've replaced the name title cards with WC1 style font.
I really love the movies score but this is just a fun experiment to see how it feels with the game music.

The nice thing about the old EPK tape was that they had the music and main audio in separate channels. So I could actually remove it completely without affecting any of the other audio. The original music in the featurette was mostly pop-rock catalogue stuff too... I think there was only one small segment that actually had music from the movie.
