Looper Scoring Sessions, San Francisco

Ladies and gentlemen, Mr. Ryan Lott on the piano. Literally.

This is, I believe, the first actual audio from the score to be posted. Not that you’ll be able to tell when you hear it in the film, but still.

We’re in a big fancy studio on a nice piano, but really, we’re not that far off from how we made Brick.

“Prokofiev’s first ‘official’ Soviet work, the dance epic Romeo and Juliet, showed him at his optimistic peak. In his autobiography, he identified five main lines in his writing: the classical, the modern, the motoric, the lyric, and the grotesque. In Romeo these modes find equilibrium, with the lyric at the center.”

Wilco: “Dawned On Me” (Official Video)

It’s been three decades since the last appearance of Popeye in a hand-drawn form, but today the iconic spinach-loving Sailor Man returns along with Olive Oyl, Swee’Pea, Wimpy, Bluto, and… Wilco. Watch above as director Darren Romanelli and King Features bring the classic cartoon back to life, just in time for Jeff Tweedy to settle Bluto and Popeye’s near-century-long rivalry for the love of Olive Oyl, once and for all.
