Jack-o'-lantern

The musical composition "Jack and the Pumpkin Lantern" is a stop-motion animation adaptation of the pumpkin lantern story. In the first half, the music incorporates numerous jazz elements and sound effects to portray the mischievous and playful personality of the protagonist, allowing the audience to better understand the character and immerse themselves in the atmosphere of the story.

For instance, in the first scene, a rhythmic and energetic 'jazz blues Walking Bass' is used to depict the protagonist's carefree and vibrant mindset as he walks. In the second scene, a fast-paced saxophone melody is employed to convey the joy and excitement brought about by the protagonist's pranks.

Throughout the first half, jazz-style music is utilized to narrate the interactions between the protagonist and the characters and objects in the story, enhancing its entertainment value.

As the protagonist faces a turning point due to a car accident leading to his demise, the music design undergoes a drastic change, utilizing piano and string instruments, which are most capable of expressing emotions, to add emotional ups and downs to the narrative.

For instance, when the protagonist meets his demise in the car accident, tangled and melancholic music is used to highlight his remorse and complex emotions. As he looks up to the bright light leading to heaven, ascending melodic motifs are employed, as if the protagonist sees a new hope. When the protagonist finds himself nowhere and alone, the theme song's lyrics and mood sing out the protagonist's deepest thoughts until he encounters the jack-o'-lantern in the darkness, accompanied by adventurous and stirring music, to illustrate the courage and sense of security he gains in the darkness.

'Jack-o'-lantern' utilizes emotionally rich and evocative music and theme songs, transitioning from light-hearted, playful joy to sadness and loneliness, ultimately evoking warmth, courage, and peace. This music composition aims to allow the audience to empathize with the protagonist's emotional journey and transformation, as well as to immerse themselves in the story world and enjoy it together.
