The Summoning
Getting help can feel like witchcraft
On a moonless night, the witch Zaria prepares a complex ritual. Summoning a demon is no easy task, and it is not without risk... Everything must be perfect. Every magical item must be used in the correct order, every herb carefully selected, and every bone finely ground. The whispered words from the ancient tome are the key, and a flaming portal to hell opens to bring forth a powerful demon that now answers to her command. But what will she wish for, now that she has this immense power at her disposal?
I returned to work with director Vanessa Stachel, composing the music for this darkly comic spec commercial for Talkspace.
