See Hear podcast Episode 45 - Interview with Matt Schrader, director of "Score: A Film Music Documentary"

Welcome to See Hear 45. We all love movies and we all love music in
movies (it’s partly why you listen to this podcast, right?) Film
scores can be bold and bombastic or quiet and subtle. Either way
it’s a strong part of the film watching experience. It seems crazy
that until 2017, there hasn’t been a major documentary (that we’re
aware of) dedicated to the art of film composition and the people
who devote their lives to emotionally manipulating you more than
what you actually see on-screen via their music. Matt Schrader is
the director of a great new documentary called “Score: A Film Music
Documentary” that looks into the process of film score composition,
how it’s evolved, interviews with a number of its current
practitioners, and the psychology behind how viewers perceive the
on-screen action when music is playing (sex, chocolate and music
all produce the same rush in your brain, apparently). Bernard, Tim
and Maurice were very excited to have Matt come onto the podcast
and discuss making the film and his own love of scores. We all
wished this could be a 10 part HBO series, but Matt packs a lot
into its 90 minute running time. We at See Hear HQ highly recommend
it and thank Matt for giving us his time. You can download the show
