Silent Sci-Fi Official Kickoff!

Ladies and gents, the day you've all been waiting for has finally arrived- the day we kick off the Silent Sci-Fi challenge! The film we'll all be watching, silently, and using to inspire us, is Forbidden Planet (1956)! This should be an easy one to find. It's available through, among other places, the following channels:

Salt Lake County Library: (DVD) Forbidden Planet
Amazon: (DVD or Streaming) Forbidden Planet
VUDU:  (Streaming) Forbidden Planet

If you can't get a hold of the film for some reason,  contact me (Brian). I have one copy I can lend out.

So remember, watch the film with no sound and let that inspire your instrumental piece. Other than that, there are no real rules. Have fun, and submit your recordings by June 31st! Brian, over and out.
