STARCHASER: THE LEGEND OF ORIN was produced in Hollywood and animated in South Korea. For the first time, the film's 3D animation would be computer controlled,incorporating a unique process that would involve the use of a pair of large plotters, resulting in a three-dimensional effect even among characters that are two-dimensional drawings. The final touch in bringing to life the film's exciting adventure story is the lavish orchestral score composed by Andrew Belling. Meeting with first time director Steven Hahn, Belling was encouraged to write a large scale orchestral score, evocative of John Williams' work on the STAR WARS films. The film's producers informed him they had enough in the budget for a large orchestra, which would give Belling the opportunity to have his first major orchestral score performed by the same 90-piece orchestra that had performed on the scores for the STAR WARS films, the London Symphony Orchestra. His score for STARCHASER is a mix of orchestra, electronics, and drum-loops, the latter giving the film's memorable main theme its constant, purposeful drive. In addition to its unique 3-D visualization, STARCHASER was also mixed in surround sound, a 5-channel stereophonic process, with 3 channels in the front and 2 in the rear, which had been growing in popularity as cinemas moved from the traditional monophonic sound process of previous decades into a more immersive aural experience, which allowed Belling to mix the score's electronic elements in a way that would take advantage of the sonic dimensionality inherent within the process. Andrew Belling began his career as studio musician/arranger, working with a number of popular artists. He later became involved with feature films as an orchestrator and composer in the early 1970s. After scoring a handful of television movies and independent films, Belling was hired by Ralph Bakshi to score his animated fantasy film WIZARDS in 1976.
