Draws on

What the speakers say they, or a film of theirs, drew on. Each is a speaker's account: “the maker said so” when they report the maker's own words, “the host's read” when the read is theirs.

No line says they, or a film of theirs, drew on anything.

Carter Burwell: 1 line

  1. unmapped (scoring lesson) · through The Birds (1963), which they scored: The Birds ⇒ Carter Burwell (the maker said so: the Criterion disc feature with Skip Lievsay and Carter Burwell). Burwell's first study film for learning scoring was The Birds, which has no conventional score, teaching him that sometimes the move is not to underscore.
    “And he watched the birds. And then only at the end of watching the birds, did he realize, oh, this movie has no conventional score.”

What was said about them, by kind

craft (2)

  1. craft (craft): Bernard Herrmann → The Birds. Herrmann worked with Hitchcock to build the bird sounds into a soundscape used like music, in a film with no conventional score.
    “Herman worked with Hitchcock to intentionally build the soundscape of the sounds of the birds and use it in a way similar to music”

  2. craft (score style): Bernard Herrmann → Trent Reznor. Reznor and Ross wrote a 1940s-style old-school score using period instruments.
    “this like 40s style old school Edward Herman score”
