6 Movie Maestros on Severed Heads, Stubborn Directors and Feeling ‘Like Frankenstein’
Great Roundtable on THR with 6 outstanding movie composers and their struggle with writings for the pictures.
Writing music often is a solitary pursuit, so it was no wonder that when six renowned composers — Marco Beltrami, 46 (The Sessions), Mychael Danna, 54 (Life of Pi), Alexandre Desplat, 51 (Argo, Moonrise Kingdom, Rise of the Guardians, Zero Dark Thirty), Patrick Doyle, 59 (Brave), Danny Elfman, 59 (Frankenweenie, Hitchcock, Promised Land, Silver Linings Playbook), and Fernando Velazquez, 36 (The Impossible) — gathered in one room, they relished the chance to discuss the complexities of their trade as part of THR’s roundtable series.

Papa Sangre – Binaural Audio only Game
Papa Sangre is a video game with no video. It’s a first-person thriller, done entirely in audio by an award-winning team of game designers, musicians, sound designers and developers. We’ve created an entire world using the first ever real-time 3D audio engine implemented on a handheld device. Which was BLOODY HARD.
A bit late to the party – but this is an amazing game.
Only binaural audio, no video at all. The only downside – it works only with headphones.
But, really Scary and surprisingly well working!
