COMPOSER
When I watched the first cut of the project, it became clear to me that I had to find an element that would represent the film through its soundtrack. Something like the "musical sound" of the film. The characters in the film have such a strong link with nature and their surroundings that I felt the Maguey/nature was in fact an omnipresent character they all interacted with and that it was worth representing it in the music. This idea reminded me of an old collaboration I had years before on a stop motion animation of the legend of Pulque (an ancient beverage that also comes from the Maguey). It was through that project that I first came to know the Mayan trumpet/Quiote instrument which fitted just perfectly in what I had in mind for SOM.
