EXAMPLE 1 An original sparse instrumental cue for a quiet ceramic-studio film. Soft felt-piano notes, a restrained warm bass foundation, and occasional light hand percussion. Intimate and patient rather than sentimental or grand. Leave room for spoken narration through most of the cue. A modest lift for a brief product reveal, then return to a lighter arrangement for the closing line. No singing, choir, vocal chops, busy lead melody, dramatic riser, or heavy drums. Provide a gentle resolved ending with a clean decay.
