SAFE DISTANCE NOW ONLINE
The full 4 and a half minute short film, SAFE DISTANCE, is available to watch on YouTube for free!
Synopsis: Kavanagh (Adam P. Cray) has worked the last few years side by side with New England's most dangerous hitman Angel (Jonathan Hart). Angel has discovered Kavanagh's secret and now they're both in the cold woods alone. No living soul for miles. No more bullets in Kavanagh's pistol.
Writer/Director Adam P. Cray has partnered with New Bedford producer Lance Gunberg for this short thriller featuring Jonathan Hart of Providence, Rhode Island. The short was produced in four hours in December of 2016 in the woods of Westport, Massachusetts. The music score was composed by Brandon Moore of Los Angeles, California.
"You're a cop. You're a traitor. I know where your family lives."
FINISHING UP
The scores for Street Runners and Safe Distance are complete, and the two projects are in the final stages of post production.
The web series, Street Runners, will stream online, and the short film, Safe Distance, will be ready for viewing on New Bedford, MA cable access in the coming months.
UPCOMING PROJECT
Brandon will soon be collaborating again with writer/director Kent Bernhard on a new action short film which is in post production now.
Kent Bernhard's thoughts on working with Brandon:
"Brandon Moore recognizes that the score is a character in your film, every bit as important as your actors and your lighting. He takes great care to set the tone and fit the mood of each moment of composition expressing truest essence of feeling in each scene."

Remembering James Horner
I'm saddened by the tragic sudden loss of James Horner, His music was apart of my childhood growing up.
The summer of 1993 was the 10th Anniversary of the release of KRULL and I was in high school marching band. I loved coming home from an exhausting day of rehearsal and rediscovering this science fiction film with an epic Horner score playing on every cable station in those days.
WILLOW and THE ROCKETEER were very inspiring scores in the same vein. I remember how excited I was when I found a used LP of BATTLE BEYOND THE STARS which I played endlessly way before it ever showed up on CD.
It is sad to think of all the melodically gifted film composers we have lost within the past 15 years. Barry, Bernstein, Goldsmith, Poledouris, Small, Kamen and now James Horner? Hard to believe. He will be greatly missed.

TOY MASTERS: HOW HE-MAN AND MATTEL CONQUERED THE UNIVERSE
"The REAL story behind the greatest toy line every created..."
The final stages of completing the musical score for the TOY MASTERS documentary are underway.
Directors Roger Lay Jr. and Corey Landis came up with the idea to delve into the world of He-Man toys in 2012. Since then, they've uncovered many twists and turns to the story that brought about Mattel's most successful toy line....
Here is a great summary of the film written by the folks at Chicago Filmmakers:
Chances are, if you were a young fantasy nut growing up in the early '80s, you had a collection of Mattel's He-Man and the Masters of the Universe toys piled high in your bedroom, you grooved to the animated Filmation cartoon series, and even waited in line for Cannon’s ill-fated movie version, starring a well-oiled Dolph Lundgren. TOY MASTERS goes behind the scenes and divulges in fascinating, hilarious, and revealing detail a decades-old rivalry and bitter clash over credit between several former Mattel employees, each of whom claim to be responsible for creating these beloved characters and product line. Childhood He-Man fans-turned-filmmakers Roger Lay, Jr. and Corey Landis set out to track down every single player in the development and production of the mega-selling toy line in order to get to the bottom of this story. Along the way, they interview the key creative personnel behind every version of those action figures and all other incarnations of Masters of the Universe including such genre luminaries as J. Michael Straczyski (Babylon 5), FX Oscar-winner Richard Edlund (Star Wars), movie concept artist William Stout (Conan the Barbarian), Filmation co-founder Lou Scheimer, Masters of the Universe movie director Gary Goddard, the animated show’s key voice cast, and many others. TOY MASTERS reveals that the fight for the universe pales in comparison to the one waged for creative acknowledgment.
