I am the Entertainment Tycoon

Chapter 557  Sunday with Anime and Music

Third Floor, Pedrarruna Manor, Elffire City.

09:23 AM, Sunday, January 24th.

Without having to wake up early for a morning workout with the girls, Theo was free to wake up as late as he wanted on Sundays.

Especially that Sunday as he didn't have to cook breakfast for Aurora. Last night she had gone to Carolla's house to have a sleepover with her friends. She would also spend the Sunday there as well, so Theo was alone at the house for the whole day.

Coincidentally Theo had his day off from the restaurant that Sunday as well, so he had the whole day to relax if he wanted. But Theo obviously wouldn't procrastinate that much.

On another hand, Theo allowed himself to sleep as much as he wanted during the morning.

That's why he only started to wake up after 9 am.

As he slowly woke up, he felt a fluffy weight sleeping next to his head.

He let out a sleepy smile when he realized that Mayia was sleeping with him.

"Good morning, baby!" Theo whispered as he patted her little fluffy head.

It was only after cuddling Mayia for another 10 minutes that he completely woke up.

After realizing that he wouldn't be able to go back to sleep, Theo could only slowly stand up from the bed to not startle Mayia.

A while later, Theo left his bedroom silently so he wouldn't wake up the kitten.

He was wearing sweatpants and a blue SAO t-shirt, typical clothes to wear at home.

As it was already late, Theo was feeling hungry, so he soon cooked a quick breakfast for him. Nothing too complicated, just a coffee with a sandwich.

As he ate his breakfast alone, he exchange texts with Aurora.

@Theo: Good morning, cupcake!

@Aurora: Good morning, big brother!

@Theo: Did you sleep well over there?

@Theo: If you don't feel comfortable over there, I can pick you up shortly.

Aurora let out a loving smile when she read his message, she could see how worried he was for her well-being.

@Aurora: Although I prefer my own bed, it wasn't too bad. I slept well, big brother.

@Aurora: If anything happens, I'll immediately call you. But so far things are going great.

Theo let out a satisfied smile as he read her message, he was happy that Aurora was able to enjoy her time with her friends.

All he wanted was for her to have a normal and fun life like every teenager of her age deserved.

That's why although he was super protective about her, he didn't restrain her movements at all. She could go anywhere she wanted as long she told him about it.

Theo could only be cool about it because he had Sylph monitoring her 24/7.

Anyways, Theo chatted with Aurora for a while as he ate his breakfast.

After ending his conversation with Aurora, he soon finished eating the breakfast he prepared.

Although Theo could take the day to laze around the house not doing anything, he found much exciting working on his current project.

Theo would produce the soundtrack of the [SAO] Anime!

Yesterday was the day that the orchestra was officially hired, so Theo had to have at least some music sheets for them to work with when they started working tomorrow.

That's why he decided to spend his free Sunday working on the soundtrack. Plus, he didn't think it would chore to work on the soundtrack, he found it extremely exciting to work on this assignment.

That's why Theo was in high spirits when he arrived at the Sound Studio of his manor.

His personal Sound Studio had all the equipment necessary for his work, that's why he would be working there for the rest of the day.

Although Theo watched the whole [SAO] Anime in his past life, he had to admit that he didn't much attention to the soundtrack, he only had vague memories of it. But even this little bit was already enough for his eidetic memory to work with. He was able to remember most of the soundtrack this way, so he had a good base which he could start working with.

That's why Theo didn't find it difficult to execute a task that usually took a whole team to complete.

A soundtrack was usually produced by a whole team of musicians that had deep knowledge of the story.

Music in anime is generally divided into two camps: the background music and the theme/insert songs. Background music (or the OST — original soundtrack of an anime) is written by a composer and then performed by studio musicians, whereas the anime theme/insert songs are usually performed by a popular music group.

In the case of the OST, the composition process begins when the series director and sound director meet and compile a list of different songs they will need in something called a music order sheet. This list is comprised of any number of requested songs ranging from emotions like "upbeat," "pensive," or "tense" to highly specific requests like "sad version of [anime character] theme for use in a death scene," as an example. In this anime production, Theo was serving as the series director and sound director, so he didn't have to have a meeting to produce the music order sheet. In the anime pre-production phase, the sound producer, sound director, and/or series director will have decided on a composer for the OST and will have coordinated with whichever agency represents this composer. At this stage, the composer in question is given the music order sheet and begins writing the music. Eventually, this music will be recorded by a team of studio musicians giving the anime its completed and final OST.

But this process didn't happen with the [SAO] Anime Production as Theo would serve as the music composer as well. All in all, Theo had a lot of things to do.

That's why the first he started to do when he arrived at the sound studio was to analyze and organize his next steps.

He had to have a clear view of what he had to do as he had accumulated too many positions and he could easily get lost in the process.

Theo knew that he wouldn't be able to finish everything that Sunday, but he hoped that he could at least have a good start on the work so he would be able to put the orchestra to work soon. n/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om

A curious thing was that although Theo had so many things to do, he still looked satisfied and happy as he worked.

He was happy that he was able to work on his two passions, Anime and Music!

That's why he didn't even notice the passage of time as he worked without stopping for the next few hours.

The [SAO] OST was being produced by the series director, sound director, and composer Theodore Gray!
