Synopsis: In the taut thriller The Shallows, when Nancy (Blake Lively) is surfing on a secluded beach, she finds herself on the feeding ground of a great white shark. Though she is stranded only 200 yards from shore, survival proves to be the ultimate test of wills, requiring all of Nancy's ingenuity, resourcefulness, and fortitude.

A NOTE FROM THE COMPOSER

The director was asking me to keep it sort of guttural and metallic, something animalistic, so over time I developed a motive… at the time we were building these plates to create natural plate reverbs in the studio, and so we had these big 8-foot plates all around, so we’re thinking maybe if we bowed the plates we could get a cool tone out of it and then process the pitch. So we started playing around with that and came up with a signature for the shark.
