HOLLYWOOD FANTASY ORCHESTRA - a brand-new orchestra that includes everything you need to create fantasy film television and game soundtracks. Produced by sound titans Doug Rogers and Nick Phoenix Hollywood Fantasy Orchestra includes unique ensembles of world instruments that have been featured in the biggest movies and games in history mixed with modern octave-doubled orchestral sections that perfectly compliment Hollywood Orchestra all with full stereo imaging mic placement and all the features of EastWest’s revolutionary Opus player. If you’re scoring the next big fantasy epic or medieval tale adding in a few period instruments won’t cut it — you need to bridge the gap between orchestral and world instruments. Every instrument needs to earn its place in the mix to create a massive cinematic sound so we created an entirely new orchestra that puts all the period instruments you need on the same stage. It’s simply unlike anything you’ve heard before. Fire-breathing dragons. Epic battles between kingdoms. Ancient untold magic casting 1 000 years of darkness upon the land... No matter how grand the scene you need to set Hollywood Fantasy Orchestra is equipped with everything you need to make it happen right out of the box. If your arsenal is missing the ancient and traditional folk strings needed to give your orchestrations an authentic edge your collection will finally match the limits of your imagination. HOLLYWOOD FANTASY STRINGS is the first iteration of Hollywood Fantasy Orchestra putting 5 of the most iconic instruments from the Medieval Renaissance and Baroque eras at your fingertips alongside brand-new stylized recordings from modern-day orchestral musicians. It includes true legato diverse articulations everything you need to produce the perfect fantasy cue to the highest professional standards. We infused it with the same power and flexibility as Hollywood Strings with the same microphone placements in the exact same studio tailor-made to mix perfectly so you can rest assured that your string libraries are all up to the task. HOLLYWOOD FANTASY BRASS puts the grandeur of some of history’s most iconic brass instruments at your fingertips complete with a broad articulation set and true legato for maximum realism and authenticity. Everything you’ve come to expect from the Hollywood series is here: multiple mic positions custom effect chains lush ambiences... but this time with a collection of brass instruments used in some of the most famous fantasy scores in history. If you’ve tried to recreate the feel of your favorite scores countless times but something is still missing the fix could be as simple as using the right instruments for the job. Instead of trumpets you’ll find flugelhorns; rather than French horns Wagner tubas and alpenhorns take their place. The result is a majesty that modern day orchestras can’t quite replicate but with the power and conviction demanded by current movies and games. Each of these core instruments is recorded in ensembles of 3 giving you a far more cinematic quality than solo instruments can achieve alone. As with Hollywood Fantasy Strings the entire brass collection was recorded in the same soundstage as the acclaimed Hollywood Orchestra providing a cohesive sound between all the elements together. Whether you need bold fanfares for distant kingdoms; sonorous melodies for heroes villains and magical creatures alike; or a rich mellow tone to evoke the mystique of castles or scrolling landscapes — Hollywood Fantasy Brass has you covered. HOLLYWOOD FANTASY WINDS presents an array of ethereal majestic woodwind instruments complete with true legato and a wide variety of articulations to command the realism and power you need in a cinematic ensemble of winds. With this collection you can paint detailed images of Celtic highlands scrolling mountain ranges enchanted forests and any other fantasy settings you can possibly imagine. These winds complete the core orchestral trinity with lyrical strings and brilliant brass giving you the texture you need to complete a true melodic fantasy ensemble. Many instruments in the Hollywood Fantasy Winds have no parallel in the modern orchestra: sonorous Uilleann pipes mellow ocarinas and brilliant Irish whistles to name a few. You’ll find they feel right at home even in the grandest settings though and that they carry a rich haunting quality that conventional sample libraries can’t touch. Winds are the lifeblood of fantasy folk music adept at describing everything from crowded merchant streets to fantastic adventures across uncharted lands. The entire collection is deeply rooted in Celtic musical literature and is perhaps the most unique and evocative section in Hollywood Fantasy Orchestra. HOLLYWOOD FANTASY PERCUSSION provides a full suite of thunderous mystical struck and shaken instruments to complement even the most epic soundtracks. While they’re well-suited to most orchestral scores they shine in combination with the rest of the Hollywood Fantasy palette. There’s no shortage of bombastic drum libraries available but there’s never been a percussion library specifically designed for scoring epic fantasy soundtracks. When scoring for fantasy there are countless settings where conventional percussion simply doesn’t cut it - fiery iron forges royal celebrations traditional folk festivals and that’s just scratching the surface. That’s when you need percussion that doesn't just carry the drama of the scene but feels perfectly at home in the world you’re composing for. Each instrument in this collection has been selected to span every setting imaginable so that no matter the scoring task you have the tools to not only underscore the drama on-screen but to wrap up the audience in an entirely new fantastical world they need to hear to believe. HOLLYWOOD FANTASY VOICES puts the power of singer Merethe Soltvedt’s majestic voice at your fingertips along with full male and female choirs. Anytime you need ethereal floating vocals to capture the essence of battles lost kingdoms or emotional trials Merethe’s voice will sell the scene even when nothing else does the trick. She lent this library the same power and grace she brings as the lead vocalist for Two Steps from Hell. If you enjoy fantasy movies you’ll love this: Every word she recorded for the Hollywood Fantasy Voices library comes directly from Tolkien’s Elvish language allowing you to make your scores as authentic as possible! There’s a world of difference between a trained singer and a vocalist who has perfected true cinematic fantasy singing — and with Hollywood Fantasy Voices in hand you can finally bridge that gap in your scores. We meticulously built this collection from the ground up with multiple microphone positions portamento control mood (Soft Classic and Epic) and more so you can command the mythic fantasy vocals you need for your newest epic soundtrack.
