Great Article on Splinter Composer Cmiral
A great article and interview with Splinter composer Elia Cmiral. The article covers much of Cmiral’s career creating scores for films as diverse as Ronin, and Stigmata, while the interview focuses mostly on Splinter.
Here’s a short excerpt from the interview:
“The movie was really interesting to score because it just refused traditional themes. I literally tried hundreds of different ideas, I put in some traditional, defined tones, like strings or piano, but it didn’t work. So I scaled it down and tried something else, and I ended up with a very rich texture for the first half of the movie, and the first real kind of traditional theme from solo cello comes at the very end, with a reflection of the opening title. It’s kind of amazed me, myself, how the movie dictated what it needs.”
By the way, that’s Elia on the left, standing with me at the premiere of Splinter at ScreamFest 08.
