The sound world that I created for 'Avatar' had to be very different, really, than anything I ever created before. There is also three hours of music.
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
To be honest, I found the 3D in 'Avatar' to be inconsistent and while ground breaking in many respects, sometimes I thought it overwhelmed the storytelling. Technology aside, I wish 'Avatar' had been more original in its storytelling.
Music is a whole oasis in my head. The creation process is so personal and fulfilling.
My main goal was to have something for everyone and not just one sound.
At the same time, one of the things I noticed was that the moment there was any kind of audio attached to virtual reality, it really improved the experience, even though the audio didn't feel like a sound engineer or composer had been anywhere near it.
I kind of always wanted my own music to just sound like, like me, I suppose, like if I was music it would be the music I make, I think.
Life is too complex to compress into soundbites. Every situation is different.
I always wanted the world to hear my music, but I didn't know how I was gonna go about it.
'Avatar' is the greatest, most comprehensive collection of movie cliches ever assembled, but it's put together in a brand new way with a new technology, and tremendous imagination, making it a true epic and a kind of a milestone.
I was just very conscious that I could either bore people by having the music be similar for too long, or I could just wear them out and bore them in a different way by having it changing too much every minute or two minutes. So, there was that kind of balance to get right.
It's been a transformative period and I really wanted to make music from what I've experienced.
