I`ll just start laying out the melody exactly where I want it to fall. And then I`ll go back and fill it out. Whereas, in other pieces I`m really just going a couple bars at a time.
I would have to say I might do some stuff, but it`s the film that`s appealing. I was raised on film. My musical experience is all via film, it`s not from classical music.
I think that`s one of the things that has always put me in kind of an odd niche. It`s that all of my understanding of orchestral music is via film, not via classical music like it`s supposed to be. To me it`s the same, it doesn`t make any difference.
I think that there`s a lot more freedom in the low budget, the independent films where, unfortunately, you don`t have the money, necessarily, to get the orchestras in there to play a lot of stuff. But, you have a lot more freedom, very often.
I really liked doing a number of the projects and directors, and etc., etc., I knew about half-way through that I would never be doing that again. It`s just not me. I really am happy as a part-time film composer, not a full-time film composer.
