Kramer Ferrington III. Posted March 19, 2007 Share Posted March 19, 2007 That was quite interesting, thank you. I didn't think much of the book (it gets a bit soppy) but the article is a lot of fun to read. Band MySpace My snazzy t-shirt empire Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tusker Posted March 19, 2007 Share Posted March 19, 2007 Hey thanks Cnegrad. I loved the score to Rumblefish but haven't followed his career. Are there some other standout scores he has done? Jerry Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BluesKeys Posted March 19, 2007 Share Posted March 19, 2007 Interesting insight into a different world. I am not sure I could even imagine what it takes to perform on that stage.

b_3guy Posted March 19, 2007 Share Posted March 19, 2007 Riveting article. I happened to see the movie & it was great. I see the Stuart Copeland name show up everywhere, but I can't name a score for the life of me. Steve www.seagullphotodesign.com Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ABECK Posted March 19, 2007 Share Posted March 19, 2007 Some of the more well known: Wall Street, Rumble Fish, Talk Radio. However, he is listed as the composer for 66 feature films on imdb.com. None of them are exactly known for their stellar soundtracks, or even for being exeptional movies (except the above IMHO.) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pat Azzarello Posted March 19, 2007 Share Posted March 19, 2007 He's done a fair amount of work. IMDB has this listing, including Wall Street and Highlander II. http://www.imdb.com/name/nm0004841/ The article mirrors many stories that I've heard about film scoring over the years - two or more creative forces at work, trying to do what they think is right, but having to comprimise. I'm currently scoring something (short animated film), and it amazes me how difficult it can be... Not just the timings, but you have to disassociate yourself with the music on one level, but still be tied to it on a different level. I'll have to find a copy of Riding the Bus and listen closely.

ABECK Posted March 19, 2007 Share Posted March 19, 2007 I had the pleasure of scoring a student film once (NYU Film student). It was as fun as it was a pain in the butt. It's wierd when you sit a "director" down to listen to your cues and he's not hearing what you are. In my opinion, the film was NOT good, but the music helped it suck a little less.
