Well, unfortunately it'll probably be a while before I can make it out there, but that gives us time to plan. If I manage to plan some band/touring around the same time, not only will I have gear, but a pretty good violinist! Probably wouldn't have much time to rehearse, so composing ahead of time, and rehearsing individually would probably be the way to go.
I too have thought about doing this sort of thing for a while, and this would be a great opportunity/excuse to try it!
Jumping in late to this thread, but JoshL did a great job on the music for my short video "Foreclosed" a few years ago. I just now made the mental connection, as I wrote & co-produced , but the director/editor handled the music.
Small world, this internet. Foreclosed was a lot of fun, and I learned a lot working on it! As you mentioned, I only ever spoke with Jeff, so I'm glad to hear that you liked the work I did!
