Merry Christmas and Happy New Year to everyone and hopefully there will many more videos from me in 2016 :)

With Batman v Superman coming up in March 2016, I went back and rewatched Man of Steel, I personally love the film, I know it has it's fair share of critics but in terms of a standalone Superman film I think it works. I love Ideal of Hope, as everyone knows, Hans Zimmer is one the most famous composers of our time and creates some amazing themes, they're all very simple but when they're layered up with a full orchestra with all of the different voicings then they become extremely powerful.

I'm about 90% happy with the acoustic at the beginning, I don't have a proper microphone so I have to record it though my phone which doesn't handle dynamics very well, so I struggled with stopping the acoustic from clipping, but I think I made it sound as good as I could.

You might have noticed that this is the first 1080p video I've released, that's because I finally have a good camera! I got a Fujifilm X-A2 for Christmas and I love it, the videos come out very clear, the pictures are great and it's simple enough yet in depth enough for someone who has never used a fancy camera before.
