MOVIE TALK ON SUNDAY-#MTOS-ON SUNDAY, JANUARY 5

Hey tweetheads! I’ll be hosting #MTOS this week with the topic of musical scores & soundtracks as the headliner! This was actually very last minute and I had some incredible help. I want to thank @CelluloidAK, @sickkgirl_, @einsteinsarcade, @JacqValencia and @beckygracelea for their wonderful assistance. I hope the #MTOS community has fun with these! 

  • Q1-One could argue that scores/soundtracks have become more important in today’s cinema than in the past. Agree or disagree? 

  • Q2-When was the last time you heard a score or a soundtrack that just completely rocked your world? 

  • Q3-How often do you encounter a bad musical score or song use, and how much does it take you out of the experience? 

  • Q4-Having the score completed before the movie is even shot is a rare thing. Should that be practiced more? 

  • Q5-It can be argued that most of today’s composers lack the skills to deliver the emotional punch needed. Agree or disagree? 

  • Q6-When it comes to collecting memorabilia from your favorite films, how important is it that you buy the physical score/soundtracks? 

  • Q7-Who, in your opinion, is an up-and-coming composer that could possibly achieve legendary status? 

  • Q8-Which type of style do you prefer in your score, traditional orchestral or electrical, or does it matter? 

  • Q9-If you’re the creative type, how often do you listen to scores/soundtracks while practicing your art? Or do you at all? 

  • Q10-The style, methods and technology in the score process is evolving day after day. Where do you see this process in 20 years?
