Scout is a 2011 sci-fi short set on an alien world (filmed in Lee Moor) that finds a planetary scout at the end of his mission and his usefulness to the Overseers in the skies above. The central, four-note motif was initially inspired by the main theme from James Newton Howard's Blood Diamond, as well as looping motifs such as John Barry's On Her Majesty's Secret Service and "Lux Aeterna" from Requiem for a Dream by Clint Mansell (the chord structure especially borrows from the latter). The theme appears in full in track two ("Walking the World"), and in lament form in track five ("Adagio for a Scout"). The album also contains a full variation on "Walking the World" as track seven. The motif for the Overseer owes to Hans Zimmer's scoring for Cutler Beckett and the East India Company in Pirates of the Caribbean: Dead Man's Chest, and is played on harpsichord.
