Legacy of the Spellmaster: D&D Fanfilm "In a time of myth and legend, an undead specter is haunting the land and stalking its people. (More) "In a time of myth and legend, an undead specter is haunting the land and stalking its people. After a long search, a lone young wizard has cornered the abomination in the wild and directly challenges its black magic in an effort to banish the monster from the realm."
So here you have pure homegrown produced movie in every sense of the word. Shot, edited, produced, directed, and starring ME. I made this in the desert outside my town in the summer of 2002, mainly to prove that I could do it, to prove that I could make my own fanfilm and match wits with the big boys (this was back before Youtube was anything more than a wild fantasy, and you could still count amateur productions on the Internet on two hands). This was uploaded at the time to the cinema board of a UK based movie enthusiasts hub, where hundreds of movie makers shared films created with a particular brand of FX software, and on that forum its been downloaded over 14,000 times.
Most of the FX here were created with that software "Amateur Light and Magic," but there's also much to be said for simple reversed footage. ;)
Some items of note:
-It was shot over a period of 4 months, as I knew how it started before I figured out how to end it. I figured I would just shoot what I knew and figure the rest out later (as a result you can see the undergrowth change color throughout the movie).
- Yes, I did it ALL myself, up to pressing REC on the camcorder and then running into frame to act out my part.
- Not a single original sound remains. Everything was dubbed over in post (courtesy of my wide selection of horror sound effects).
- The only spell effect that survived every single storyboard and reshoot was the Flying Sword of Black Magic (Mordenkainen's Sword for the D&D literate), an effect I was going to MAKE work even if I couldnt make it work. Acting it out was easy, but it took over a dozen separate renders in the software to get it exactly right (by comparison, the two shots with the flaming skull took only 3 TOTAL).
- And yes, I do play both roles (surely you noticed that at no time is the villain and protagonist on the screen at the same time? ;) )
For the completionist, the opening crawl here isnt the same one I uploaded those many years ago. Back then I succumbed to Excessive Exposition-itis and gave it a full 60 seconds overload. Heeding the cries of my fans, this is the lean and mean version.
So watch and enjoy! This is the origin of the "MUSE" in my name. Those rubber monster gloves? You didnt notice them in my production logo before every one of my new movies? Go watch, and you will...

Ed Saindon's latest CD is Depth of Emotion from World Improvised Music which features the blend of Dave Liebman's soprano along with Ed Saindon's vibes, piano and marimba. The quartet's focus is on group dialogue, improvisation, and spontaneity played with an extreme dynamic range. The repertoire focuses on original compositions that evoke a wide range of emotions for the listener. The music can best be described as contemporary jazz that ranges from delicate lyricism to intense, virtuosic displays played with abandon.
"The aspect of this recording that impressed me the most is the incredible uniformity of the compositions; yet within each tune, there are different sets of musical challenges especially in the harmonic realm. The combination of the vibes with the soprano is a lovely texture that I had never before explored. Ed's music is very listenable, and at the same time quite sophisticated." Dave Liebman
Ejazznews review of Depth of Emotion published January, 01, 2008:
"Crafting a unique blend of contemporary jazz, pianist Ed Saindon and saxophonist Dave Liebman offer a session of cutting edge music with intelligent charts and spontaneous improvisation to produce a quality recording with "Depth of Emotion." Saindon, who not only plays the piano, but is also a four mallet vibist and plays the marimba as well, is featured as co-leader with Liebman who performs on the soprano sax. The duo are accompanied by bassist David Clark and Mark Walker on the drums forming one tight quartet.
Except for two standards provided fresh interpretations here, Saindon provides all original compositions. The quartet opens the music with the melancholy "The Last Goodbye" paying homage to the late Herb Pomeroy with whom Saindon performed for many years. On this tune Liebman introduces the music with his soprano voice eventually giving way to Saindon on the vibes then reengages to finish out a somber piece.
The group performs a light hearted rendition of the Kaper/Washington standard "Green Dolphin Street," where Liebman delivers some of his best solos of the album. Saindon provides an exquisite piano solo on one of the very best renditions of the Mancini/Mercer classic, "Moon River" I've ever heard as the saxophonist and pianist play off each other quite well.
Saindon leads off on the piano on "Tokyo Nights," later engaged by Liebman who together deliver another beautiful harmony in one of the best tunes here. The album ends featuring the pianist performing several short vignettes on the piano titled "Piano Solo Reflections."
This is one of those new 2008 releases containing a repertoire of refreshing new music that critics and the average jazz audiences will love. Assembling a unique combo, With "Depth of Emotion," Ed Saindon and Dave Liebman chart a new course in modern jazz that deserves serious attention."

German music publisher Advance Music has just released Exploration in Rhythm, Volume 1, Rhythmic Phrasing in Improvisation by Ed Saindon. This is the first book of a series (for all instruments) dealing with advanced rhythmic concepts for the improvisor and composer. Saindon is a Professor at Berklee College of Music in Boston where he has been teaching since 1976 and has developed the concepts addressed in the book through his jazz improvisation course at the college.
Exploration in Rhythm, Rhythmic Phrasing in Improvisation will develop and expand the rhythmic palette and vocabulary of the improviser and composer. The book specifically addresses the concept of over-the-bar line phrasing via rhythmic groupings of 8ths, triplets, 16ths and polyrhythms in 3/4, 4/4, and 5/4. Working on these concepts, players should begin to "hear" rhythms that "float over the barline" as well as develop the ability to execute phrases over longer periods of time. The end result will be a sonic erasing of the bar line and an enhanced sense of freedom with regard to rhythm and phrasing. Exploration in Rhythm includes endorsements/quotes from Dave Douglas, Dave Liebman and Hal Crook.

About this video:
This video footage is from a concert that I did with pianist Dick Whittington. The concert took place on June, 9th, 2006 at the Jazz School in Berkeley, California. I did a clinic in the afternoon and this video was taken at the night concert. After the concert, Dick and I headed up north for a concert in Mendocino. The clinic and concerts were funded by friend and jazz supporter Monterey Jack. (Less)
