简介
The debut film from the New Jersey based production company Two Man Crew Productions, is the extremely well made and highly-entertaining suspense/thriller "The Watchers." The 28-minute short is the brainchild of Jeff Moffitt (who stars in the film) and Sy Cody White (who directed). It was filmed in and around New York and New Jersey. The script, penned by both Moffitt and White tells a Hitchcock-style tale of an ordinary man, accountant John Porter (Moffitt) , a man of organization, precision and order, who is in turmoil over the loss of his marriage to his wife Marcy. Not one to give in to defeat easily it seems, John leaves message after message for Marcy, in the hopes of keeping the spark of reconciliation with her alive, but also to check in on his young daughter Sarah. To his consternation, all of his calls to Marcy go answered. John tries to concentrate on work, but he cannot and ignores the advice and counsel of friends like well meaning office mate Phil (Darrin Biss). He tries to keep his home neat and tidy, ready for Marcy and Sarah’s return, but the chances of that happening are highly unlikely. Things begin to get a whole lot worse for John when he discovers that he is being followed by some very mysterious individuals. These strangers simply stare and then appear everywhere in John’s life all of the sudden, with no explanation as to who they are, what they want and what they plan to do. Dr. Orwell (Timothy J. Cox), John’s shrink, listens with doubt to John’s tale, thinking that stress, perhaps over the loss of his marriage, is causing him to have delusions and fantasies. Twists and turns abound as John tries to uncover the truth, but there’s more to this story than meets the eye, so be sure to pay close attention to the details, as "The Watchers" provides its fair share of surprises. The original score, by Christopher Rinaman, is dramatic and brooding. It features a variety of soundscapes, starting with a powerful piano and string harmonics theme. Two Man Crew Productions filmed a five minute short fan film and a one-minute trailer based on the Call Of Duty: Modern Warfare 3 video game. Christopher Rinaman scored both of these projects and the scores are released here as complete tracks. The original music is very much in the style of a “Hans Zimmer-type” military action movie score, and they both pull out all the stops, featuring orchestra, pounding drums, electric guitars, and even chorus. Christopher Rinaman, a freelance composer, arranger and trombonist in New York City, studied at the Manhattan School of Music and the University of North Florida. His experience ranges from performances in NYC jazz clubs and Broadway pits, including touring with the First National Tours of the shows “In The Heights” and “Memphis,” to big band and orchestral arranging and composing for film. In 2002, while working as an assistant to Academy Award-winning film composer Howard Shore, Chris Rinaman was the head score consultant for the world premiere of "The Fellowship of the Ring for Symphony Orchestra and Chorus" at the Hollywood Bowl. He has been commissioned by the Riverside Opera Orchestra and has created orchestral and big band arrangements for numerous vocalists, including Deana Martin, Micheal Castaldo, William Michals, and Allan Harris. His composition credits include theme music for the travel series “Let’s Vacation” on the PAX-TV network, the score to the independent films, “The Watchers,” “A Drop of Love,” and “Diamondz ‘n da Ruff,” and music for the documentary, “Battery Park City: Who Knew?”
