For the later movie Dead Space: Aftermath, the score was composed by Christopher Tin, who was told to emulate Grave's musical style. The music for the animated direct-to-video spin-off Dead Space: Downfall was composed by Seth Podowitz. His work on Dead Space 3 was in collaboration with James Hannigan. Graves would go on to work on the next two mainline Dead Space entries, and all the spin-off titles ( Dead Space: Extraction, Dead Space Ignition, Dead Space Mobile). He had a background in classical music and composition for film and television before debuting in video games.
Dead space trailer series#
The music for the Dead Space series was primarily composed by Jason Graves. While a fourth game was planned, the commercial failure of Dead Space 3 and the closure of Visceral Games brought the series to a close. The next two mainline entries were Dead Space 2 (2011), and Dead Space 3 (2013). Following the original's success, multiple spin-off titles followed. It was supported by a wider multimedia narrative, originally referred to as "IP cubed" and later as a " trans-media franchise". The concept was based on series creator Glen Schofield's wish to create the most frightening horror game possible. The titular first game, released in 2008, began production two years before. The Dead Space series was produced by Visceral Games (originally EA Redwood Shores). Reception of the music has been generally positive, with Graves being nominated for multiple awards for his work on Dead Space and Dead Space 2.Ĭomposer Jason Graves (pictured in 2016) worked on the majority of the Dead Space franchise. Each mainline entry has received digital soundtrack album releases. For Dead Space 3, Graves maintained his style while incorporating action themes, while Hannigan composed music to advance its narrative and be distinct from Graves's tracks. For Dead Space 2, Graves expanded the orchestral elements, and incorporated a string quartet to represent protagonist Isaac Clarke. The original Dead Space was scored to sound unconventional by standards of the time, drawing inspiration from the work of Christopher Young and the score of The Shining. Other composers have been involved in the series Grave's recurring collaborator Rod Abernethy acted as an early advisor for the titular first game, James Hannigan co-composed the score for Dead Space 3, while Seth Podowitz and Christopher Tin were the respective composers for the movies Dead Space: Downfall and Dead Space: Aftermath. Graves composed the music for all mainline entries in the series and the majority of spin-off titles. The music of the Dead Space media franchise, created by Visceral Games (originally EA Redwood Shores) and published by Electronic Arts around a series of survival horror video games, was mainly composed by Jason Graves.
