A random memory surfaces. I was working on the final of the video & directing class one year, where we had to make an exactly 20 or 30 second long ad, I don't remember which. Had to source a product, write, direct, shoot and edit the video for it. (Making a very short video is an art. Another year I filmed and edited a three hour long play!)

Anyway. I needed music for it and messaged my older brother like: "Could you noodle something slow and hopeful on the saxophone for me?" He said yes.

Somehow I managed to hit some magical zone of ADHD and life and music, where he just did it kind of right away and sent me the music. Just a little recording, barely touched up, of a nice and ambient little composition with hopeful tones. "I'll do it again at some point, but you can probably edit to this."

And indeed I could. I edited to it, he never remembered to record, edit nor send me the finished one, so one of my graded work now and forever is tracked to the rough draft of some random sax. 😆

Anyway. He plays like seven different instruments whenever he has the time and remembers to (not often, I think) but it's just funny to me. The little composition sounded actually very nice to me, a person who does not play the saxophone and only played piano a little bit and sings, and everyone else liked it too.

It's very convenient to know people who know how to do stuff.

Oh. Perhaps relevant, in case someone's curious. The ad was for a friend who did glass jewellery in her spare time, and I had another friend model a necklace of hers and dance on the video. The wardrobe was this one dress from my many many thrift shop finds. Did stay firmly within the budget I set for myself, lol.
