Summary

Music is a quintessential part of the movie experience, both from the filmmaking side and the audience side. When to use it, how to use it and everything in between. The way movies utilize music has a lasting impact on the way we as viewer consume and interact with them. In this episode, Josh and Jack are joined by Drew Wolff and break down some of our favorite movie scores to date. Also, if you would like to hear some of our selections, Jack made a Spotify playlist (The Longlist: Best Scores Listening Guide) so that you can follow along or listen to them afterwards. Thanks so much and enjoy. Music credit: Happy and Fun Kids Jazz by Alex Productions- (Free Music Archive), (cc by-nd)
