“Cha Cha Real Smooth,” indie wunderkind Cooper Raiff’s new film about a college graduate who works as a “party starter” at bar and bat mitzvahs.“A movie about a bar mitzvah? Where do I sign? Have you been reading my diary?” Haim remembered thinking to herself, as relayed during a recent interview with TheWrap. “As very much a self starter, I was like, ‘Do you need music?’”Haim has been interested in “the way that music intermingles with picture, and how you can play with people’s emotions” long before she was starring in her own music videos.
In high school, she toyed with the idea of editing music videos for a living, as she did for her musician friends.Though scoring has always been on Haim’s radar, she credits Oscar-winning “Black Panther” composer Ludwig Göransson for lighting the way. While producing Haim’s 2011 EP “Forever,” he was also juggling composer duties for “Community” and “Fruitvale Station.” “I would sit there and just watch, in awe of him,” Haim recalled.
Knowing that they shared an academic background – Haim studied ethnomusicology and played bass for a Bulgarian women’s choir – made it easier to see herself as a future composer.When that day came, Haim found the transition from writing and performing her own music to scoring “pretty intuitive.” Still, she doesn’t take any of it for granted.“I don’t think it’s a given that just because you’re a musician, you can be a composer,” she explained. “As an artist, I take my craft very seriously and so obviously I felt like I had something to prove with both ‘Maid’ and with ‘Cha Cha.’” Whether she’s puzzling over a melody with her sisters or sounding out an emotional sequence with Stracey, Haim takes a “no bad ideas” approach.
