Good news from Michigan: Film scoring industry & Terry Herald

With an onslaught of negative news articles coming out about the Michigan economy, I thought it would be nice to share something positive, and to give credit where it's due. Jumbie partner Terry Herald has been doing amazing work writing for film scores. Here's an excerpt from "Scoring Michigan's New Film Industry":

"It looks very promising," says Terry Herald, a composer who also teaches film music history at Oakland University. Much of Herald's work has been with local projects, including the soundtrack for the documentary, Journey to Justice, produced locally by Steve Palackdharry and distributed in Europe.

However, he says, "All of the major creative work has been done by talent from California. The work here is the basic labor involved in a film gaffers, grips, set people. There have been some actors that have scored minor roles. But the creative team is coming with the producers out of California. That might change when studios are actually built here."
