How Dan Romer’s ‘Station Eleven’ Multi-Modal Score Looped Back To Inform Itself On Different Levels – Sound & Screen
07.05.2022 - 01:19 / deadline.com
Crafting the music for HBO’s postapocalyptic miniseries Station Eleven offered composer Dan Romer the unique opportunity to create a score that informs itself as new episodes unfold.
The really fun thing about [the project] is that the actual score starts learning from the songs as the show goes,” Romer explained at Deadline’s Sound & Screen event Thursday night at UCLA’s Royce Hall.
“It’s not supposed to go the other way around: the songs aren’t aware of the score, but the scores were the songs,” said Romer, whose music credits include the scores for Beasts of the Southern Wild and Luca and producing tracks for Shawn Mendes and pop duo A Great Big World. “So it’s really fun palette to play with. It was like, ‘Oh, we have this melody that they sing. Let’s put that melody in the Shakespeare [play scenes] and let’s put that Shakespeare melody in the score.’’”
He added: “There’s a bunch of modalities of music in the show. There’s the actual score, there’s the folk songs that the symphony themselves were supposed to have written … and then there’s the music they play for the orchestra in the show that plays over the Shakespeare. … Before we filmed, a lot of the Shakespeare music was written and the songs were written, so they could play it on set and sing it on set.”
The composer said that his self-imposed rules included composing a score played by “all instruments you carry around,” much as the show’s Traveling Symphony does as they tour the Midwest after a deadly virus had upended society. And he revealed that Station Eleven’s executive producer Patrick Somerville, for whom Romer also scored Maniac, is a very hands-on creator, literally, when it comes to the music.
“It’s really much more of a back-and-forth,” said Romer. “I

Kendrick Lamar’s ‘The Heart Part 5’ Video Kicks Off Partnership With ‘South Park’ Creators Trey Parker and Matt Stone
Jem Aswad Senior Music EditorIt took a village to create Kendrick Lamar’s mind-melting new video for his song “The Heart Part 5,” which on the surface is just him performing in front of a red backdrop until you realize that his face deepfakes into those of OJ Simpson, Jussie Smollett, Nipsey Hussle, Kobe Bryant and Kanye West (who, ironically, himself dropped a video the same day using deepfake technology).While the video was directed and executive produced by Lamar and longtime collaborator Dave Free and features a host of creative collaborators (listed below), the deep fake is credited to Deep Voodoo, a studio launched by “South Park” creators Trey Parker and Matt Stone to specialize in the technology — and the “The Heart Part 5” video appears to be the first fruit of a partnership between Lamar’s PGLang company and the “South Park” founders’ Park County banner to produce a new feature film for Paramount Pictures. (While Lamar, Parker, Stone and reps for PG Lang and Deep Voodoo all declined Variety’s requests for an interview about.) The Deep Voodoo studio — the name of which almost certainly was chosen in part for its phonic similarity to the term “deep doodoo” — made its first major splash late in 2020 with “Sassy Justice,” a spoof of a television investigative report on deep fakes done in collaboration with actor Peter Serafinowicz.
