THE SOUNDSCORE TO heartBEAT: A NARRATIVE-FORM MUSIC ...

Dean of the Graduate School, Clyde Hendrick for his early, consistent, and very
substantial support.
DAVID
We'd also like to thaiik the Dean of Arts & Sciences, Joe Goodin, and Associate
Dean Jane Winer for their very timely support, as well as the Fine Arts Doctoral
Committee, Chaired by Associate Graduate Dean Tom Langford. I'd like to express my
personal thanks to my partners, Craig Alderson, Bruce Alderson and Wally Moyers for
allowing me to work on the piece while our equipment busily depreciated. I wish to
thank Dr. Mary Jeanne van Appledom for seven years of unflagging enthusiasm and
gracious support. And last, I'd like to thank my wife Nancy, who, as well as being a
terrific artist's wife, was a highly-cooperative aesthetic guinea pig, spending many patient
hours in front of a microphone while I adjusted knobs and faders.
KIM
As you will see when the credits roll, there are many people deserving of thanks.
Some of these deserving of special thanks, however, are: Rudy Alvarado and Carol
Brannan for their excellent performances during long hours before the camera; Angela
Heath, my assistant producer, for her professionalism and longterm dedication to the
project; Duane Conder, for his unflagging assistance and creative input on the special
effects; Cherie Miner, Bob Mosier, and Jim Meek as "Assistant Assistant Producers"
who saw when things needed doing and saw to it that they got done; Dana Gloege, for
his super job organizing, designing, and overseeing the physical production; J.E.
Masters for his superb work as casting director and drama coach; Mark Fischer for his
thoroughly excellent camera work; David Underwood, station manager a KLBK-TV,
Channel 13, for allowing me to use the station's computer graphics equipment to produce
graphics for heartBEAT; Louise Underwood for making tonight's premiere possible on
tills scale; and, finally, Edna Glenn and Sara Waters for introducing the program tonight.
Now, at long last, heartBEAT.
