War Showreel

WarOK chaps, stiff upper lip...


War (and anti-war) films acknowledge the horror and heartbreak of war, letting the actual combat fighting (against nations or humankind) on land, sea, or in the air provide the primary plot or background for the action of the film. They may include POW tales, stories of military operations, and training inculding along with glory, the pity and futility of human conflict.

1 A Time Of War [2:08]  - David Gosnell A Time Of War [2:08] David Gosnell Classical Orchestra
Solitary trumpet call, sonorous voiceover, three breeds of snare drum - yes, this must be a time of war. Whether its a review of a historic battle or a documentary containing the recollections of veterans and survivors, this is the kind of 'we prepared to attack at dawn' kind of underscore you need.
2 Before Appomattox [1:40] - David Gosnell Before Appomattox [1:40] David Gosnell Classical Orchestral
Happier times in the rural American South, the opening credits to a story of how that was all going to change. Simple folk living their lives on the land, and whose nobility was to change from battling the elements to fighting each other. Scored for full orchestra with soulful 'Southern' violin solo
3 Irregular Soldiers [1:29]  - David Gosnell Irregular Soldiers [1:29] David Gosnell TV Orchestra miscellany of some sort
A unique military group; whether because they have special skills, are misfits, operate beyond the law, or posses a criminal wardrobe. They undertake covert missions and fire thousands of bullets without causing a single fatality. A blast from the 1980's where exploding cars made Saturday nights.
4 Collateral Damage [1:56]   - David Gosnell Collateral Damage [1:56] David Gosnell Orchestra with Duduk
Refugees caught up in someone else's war, wildlife caught in an oil slick, homeowners scattered by a tropical storm. This music speaks of the collateral damage inflicted by life changing events in history, a plaintive Armenian duduk melody underscored by muted and tremolando strings and a french horn section.
5 Plans In Motion [1:44] - David Gosnell Plans In Motion [1:44] David Gosnell Classical Orchestra
All the pieces are in place, all eventualities have been considered and now it is time to put the wheels in motion. The plan commences slowly at first and then gathers momentum. The enemy won't know what hit 'em!
6 After The Clean War [2:19]  - David Gosnell After The Clean War [2:19] David Gosnell Orchestra Organ & Choir
A quasi classical 'mass' type piece where we survey the scene of carnage left by a 'discrete intervention'. The tone is one of pity mixed with the emotion of loss. Never published.
7 Rescue Squad [1:33] - David Gosnell Rescue Squad [1:33] David Gosnell TV Orchestra miscellany of some sort
A unique military group; whether because they have special skills, are misfits, operate beyond the law or are posses a criminal wardrobe. They undertake covert missions and fire thousands of bullets without causing a single fatality. A blast from the 1980's where exploding cars made Saturday nights.
8 Heat Of Battle [2:26] - David Gosnell Heat Of Battle [2:26] David Gosnell Cinematic Orchestra - large brass section
The 6th Panzer Army rumbles to engage the U.S. 2nd Infantry in the weeks following D Day. Heavy armour, determined soldiers, maverick generals and thousands of casualties, all reflected in this 'mechanised battle' cue. It builds from the commencement of hostilities to a thunderous climax and fade.
9 Sword & Sandals [2:01]   - David Gosnell Sword & Sandals [2:01] David Gosnell Classical Orchestra
Epic scale high energy action adventure soundtrack! Perfect for fight scenes, marching to war, preparing for battle or a trailer with a hint of sword & sandals. Driving rhythms, constant momentum, heroic melody and powerful climax. Full orchestra with drums of war, male choir and an anvil!
10 Covertion [2:20] - David Gosnell Covertion [2:20] David Gosnell Synthesisers, sound design, bass, drums.
Whether you're peering intently at trace evidence in the lab or setting out with your ski-mask and laser-sighted semi-automatic to take our the terrorist base camp; you are determined, professional, stealthy, cunning - and lets face it just a little bit cool. You may even be the sort of guy who needs to remove his sunglasses in order to deliver a pithy one-liner. Whatever the case, this dark rhythmic track suits you down to the ground.
