For those of you who aren’t sure who Alexandra Patsavas is, she is the music supervisor for Twilight. In a new interview with American Song Writer, Alexandra talks about her projects and experience working on the Twilight series.
Here’s an excerpt from the interview :
Have you experienced much Twilight mania first hand?
Yes, I have been to quite a few of the pre-release events over the years, especially if soundtrack artists are involved. It is a privilege to work on a project with a positive and enthusiastic fan base.
What were some of the trials and tribulations of putting the latest Twilightsoundtrack together?
Only the masses of excellent (and unreleased) submissions we get at the Chop Shop offices for each film. Scores of truly memorable tracks and only 15-20 places in the movie. It was really wonderful working with Bill Condon – I am eagerly awaiting Breaking Dawn 2.
What have you learned from the success of Twilight over the years?
We tend to select a mix of established and respected alternative artists and performers that are less known but always the song that is selected is the best to tell the story. I do believe that is why these OST’s connect so strongly with the audience. They are hearing the songs for the first time, certainly and often are experiencing the bands for the first time as they watch the film. Heady stuff.
