I don't believe in an annual dose of film music for the sake of it being film music. If we program film music, it will be because there is a real artistic reason for doing so.
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
Usually music is used to hide a film's problems.
Now, it's almost impossible to go out and do a film about a new form of music.
Our music over the years has been very cinematic. It's surprising we never really got into film soundtracks.
The intelligent use of contemporary music in film has an enormous audience.
It is immensely enjoyable to work for an album because there's a lot more creative freedom. In films sometimes, all that the makers care about is making the music commercially appealing.
Music is so crucial to every film, I think.
Secondarily, I think films that are driven by music also terrify studios.
So film music is something I absolutely wanna get involved in.
There just is exponentially more money in the movie business than in the music business. As a result there are more people involved in the creative process.
Film composers are the most prolific music makers on this planet, and most of us are, like, losing our minds if we're doing five or more movies in a year.
