Destiny 2: Renegades: ESCAPE (music editing)

Описание: This is the Destiny 2: Renegades — Escape cinematic featuring the edited temp music used during the editorial process. This version is presented for demonstration purposes and highlights the temp music editing process. Final sound effects are present; however, the music is temporary and the overall mix is not final. The released cinematic features the official score and final mix by Bungie’s audio team.

During editing, I incorporate temp music and sound effects to help define pacing, emotional beats, and the overall structure of the cinematic. In some cases, I’m provided with early Destiny music cues for the current release, which I edit to match the action and tone of the scene.

For this particular release, however, the official music was not yet available. Instead, I used the most obvious choice, a selection of John Williams’ Star Wars compositions as temporary placeholders. I avoided using immediately recognizable themes—such as Duel of the Fates, Skywalker motifs, and Force themes—and edited around those elements. This approach ensured the tone and rhythm supported the cinematic without distracting from the narrative or creating unintended associations.

The temp music here uses various selections from five Star Wars films and ten different tracks all edited, layered, and blended together to fit the action of the cinematic.

Here's some cue highlights:
0:00 Start
1:30 Ice Blast
1:55 Saber Clash
