I've been auditioning for a few movies here and there. I don't want anything to get in the way of the music any more than it has. It hasn't really gotten in the way; I've been doing two things at once.
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
I'm there to make a kind of theatrical music that is desperately missing in my life. And if other people don't like it, I'm very unhappy, but I can't do anything about that.
Now, it's almost impossible to go out and do a film about a new form of music.
In the end, you don't want music to be noticed as much as digested and integrated into the storytelling. And make audiences sit forward in their seats and enjoy the movie.
I've gotten a lot more comfortable with the audition process, but there's something that really turned me off initially when I was younger, to auditioning. The idea that I couldn't get to the person that was actually making the film really frustrated me.
I really do not like auditioning... it's hard because you never know what you're going to walk into in a room.
I'm afraid that I won't do a good job when I go into an audition.
Just go and keep auditioning and keep trying and keep believing things will turn around, and it always does.
In my films, I either want the music to be very subtle and very buried or just put it right out in front and be super blunt with it.
Film is where I want to end up, but I don't want to let go of theatre.
Every audition I get, I agonise over and I put everything I can into it.
