Fresh off the back of scoring the smash hit Spider-Man: Across the Spider-Verse, composer Daniel Pemberton joins The Film Scorer Podcast. Not surprisingly, Daniel and Nick spend the majority of their interview talking about Daniel's score, including: the significant amount of time Daniel had not only to write and record, but also to do what he calls R and D; expanding the sonic palette from the first film; and creating distinct, genre-appropriate thematic material and sounds for the primary characters while also balancing and integrating these pieces of music. They then move fully beyond Across the Spider-Verse and talk about Daniel's score for last year's lovely Brian and Charles, which showcases his desire to explore new musical directions and take creative risks, his ability to write quickly (Daniel mentions a mystery film he just scored in one week), and the use of composing teams.
