The '60s is one of my favourite eras in general. I love '60s music, and I've always wanted to do a period film.
In times of war, starvation, hunger and injustice, such tragedy can only be put aside if you allow yourself to be uplifted through music, film and dance.
With the rise of the Internet, fashion did become part of the global entertainment industry in the last ten years, and will follow the digital evolution of the music or film industry.
I guess professionally it began when Hal Hartley used some music of mine in his film The Unbelievable Truth.
When you hear my music and you feel the emotion, it's real. When you see me in a film and you see a tear, it's real.
I always said when I was younger, I wanted to write film music, and I think that's what my ultimate dream is.
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.
Right now I just finished writing the music for a Rugrats feature film and the third week of September I go to London, and the Orchestra is going to perform the score.
I think possibly the first film that has music as its leading character.
Most of the animated films I watched, the emotions are all prepackaged like canned music, the hand actions, the sighs.
You can be a sex symbol through music or film. Hey, there are some politicians that are sex symbols. Is that something you should fight? No. Sex is very natural.
In TV, film, and music there's a lot of snobbery, and I don't like it. I've never been a cultural snob.
I've always been a follower of silent movies. I see film as a visual medium with a musical accompaniment, and dialogue is a raft that goes on with it.
Yeah... I like films, I like movies, I like playing different characters and working with different actors and filming in different places. I like movies because it's kind of a combination of every art: it's like, it's picture, it's story, it's music...
With the new technology that keeps entering the media, film composers are constantly being placed in new learning situations. Acknowledging this and realizing that one must keep up, I maintain, nonetheless, that the real creative power is in the mind...
I want to continue to produce film, television, and theater, and to make the most amazing music that I've made in my life.
One thing that I always liked about fashion was that it was tied in with music and art and film.
The film was fair to his musical achievement and gave him every opportunity to explain himself.
Actors are agents of change. A film, a piece of theater, a piece of music, or a book can make a difference. It can change the world.
Every milieu has something ridiculous about it - film-making, the music world, painting - because people who take themselves seriously become funny pretty quickly.
I love the idea of using film language similarly to how musicians use music - combining images and sounds in a way that they create an emotional effect.
