The “A Christmas Snow” Orchestra

The Live Orchestra at "The Music Group" in OKC

Right now I’m at The Music Group in Oklahoma City, watching Jason Moore the composer on A Christmas Snow conduct an 11 piece orchestra for the soundtrack of the film. All I can say is, wow! What an amazing talent each of these players are and it’s incredible to hear the music come together.

DISCLAIMER: I am a big fan of classical/orchestra music in the first place, but to hear it composed and played for A Christmas Snow is such an incredible experience. I can’t wait till you all hear it in the final product, but you can get a sneak peek of it in next week’s TMP INsider Newsletter. If you aren’t an INsider yet, you can sign up right here on the A Christmas Snow website by going to the Social Tab and then TMP INsider.

Sign up now and be one of the first to hear a clip from the orchestral arrangement for A Christmas Snow.

Thanks to all of our fans for your support and to all the talented musicians who are now a part of the A Christmas Snow journey.

A Huge Success at Biola!

(Our logo was on every table at the VIP dinner, lots of fun!)

As many of you know, Trost Moving Pictures the studio behind A Christmas Snow was the sponsor of the VIP Dinner at the Biola Media Conference on the CBS Studios lot this last weekend.

TMP and Destiny Image Films were in attendance to show the Extended Trailer and talk about the projects we are working on beyond A Christmas Snow.

The trailer was well received and writer/director Tracy J Trost had the crowd laughing with his usual jovial demeanor. And that’s exactly why TMP was proud to be a part of this event. It is our desire to bring a different aire to the film and media world and to leave a lasting impression on all those we meet.

Whether it’s creating a great atmosphere on set or getting a group of industry insiders laughing, we aim to serve others with the talents we’ve been given and we thoroughly enjoyed being a part of Biola this year, so much so that we told them to put us down next year as the dinner sponsors again. Thank you Kathy and Phil Cooke, Peggy Rupple, and Biola for letting Trost Moving Pictures, Destiny Image Films, and A Christmas Snow be a part of this year’s event!
