Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

Interview Jessica Rose Weiss
Q: How did the project Girls Like Girls come together and evolve into a feature film?
It began with Hailey Kyoko's viral song, followed by a collaboration sparked through social media, leading to a book, then a script, and finally the movie, with a strong emphasis on Hailey's authentic voice and story.
Interview Jessica Rose Weiss
Q: How did you approach No Hard Feelings as a co-score with Mychael Danna?
We start by spotting the film with the director, discuss tonal directions, and then we share themes back and forth—each contributing ideas and built-up cues to create a cohesive collaboration.
Interview Jessica Rose Weiss
Q: What was it that made you transition from ballet and theatre to film and television composition?
I always pursued music alongside other art forms, started as an assistant to a film composer, and gradually moved up, discovering that scoring allowed me to tell stories through sound in a way that felt natural and deeply personal.
Interview Sam Slater
Q: How do you balance artistic exploration with production deadlines in high-stakes films or games?
By recognizing the production timeline as a constraint that can guide, not stifle, creativity; I aim to build a sound world that serves the story while still allowing for deep, considered exploration when possible.
Interview Sam Slater
Q: Can you describe the moment you decided to transcribe machine gunfire into music for 2000 Meters to Andriivka?
The realization came from watching the headcam footage and wanting the musical language to mirror the intensity and chaos of that moment, transcribing the rhythm of the gunfire to give the audience a visceral, immersive thread throughout the sequence.
