There are parallels between the music and film worlds, but they're really very different. I feel like they're just two different ways to channel my creativity.
Sentiment: POSITIVE
I've always been real close to film world. I love film, and I will do things in film, but music is more satisfying. It feels more like me.
I love the conversation between film and music.
I've listened to music all my life. I've always felt that music tells more stories sometimes than films, with more possibilities. Every time you listen to them, songs bring different images and moods - depending on where you are in your life, you can listen to a song, and it means something different.
For a long time I have compared cinema to music, I think cinema has a lot to do with the rhythm of music.
Obviously, movies and music videos are different because they're different lengths, and in a movie, you have more time to explore an idea. But I feel like they're all the same, really.
Part of my desire to play music was because I wanted to escape the art world and the politics of it; the petty gossip-y art world. But you know, I feel like they're both equal forms of expression.
The experience of a film is immersive, and music is supposed to underline and help that experience.
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.
So film music is something I absolutely wanna get involved in.
I think songs and visuals are so evocative of each other.
