Composing for Heroes: Continuity and Emotions — The Beat | Soundtrack | Scoop.it

San Diego convention center, The 2nd Annual Musical Anatomy of a Superhero: Bringing a Comic Book to Life returned. On hand this year was an impressive panel of composers: Tyler Bates, Christophe Beck, Blake Neely, John Ottoman, and Brian Tyler. You might recognize some of their work, like Watchmen, X-Men: Days of Future Past, Iron Man 3, and the television series Buffy the Vampire Slayer. Each one of these men have had a hand in crafting fantastic scores for hit media, and are well versed in using music to sell a story.

Superman and His Music - A Twitter Discussion | Tracksounds

Superman and His Music - A Twitter Discussion | Tracksounds | Soundtrack | Scoop.it

With the imminent return of Superman, via Zach Snyder's upcoming MAN OF STEEL, it's a sure bet JOHN WILLIAMS' original themes and scores for late-seventies, feature-film, iteration of Superman will be coming up in many forums and on countless social media platforms.  Add to this JOHN OTTMAN's exciting, recently released score for JACK THE GIANT SLAYER and his past connection to the Superman franchise (SUPERMAN RETURNS) and you get the following twitter conversation principally between Erik Woods (Cinematic Sound Radio), Christopher Coleman (Tracksounds), Dane Walker (Composer), Mark A. and Doug Adams (Author).

While some feel that JOHN OTTMAN could do more than a serviceable job scoring one of the upcoming STAR WARS films, not everyone agrees.  A large part of that disagreement comes from Ottman's treatment of Williams' well-known, well-loved, original themes for Superman. 

Read through.  Judge for yourself.  And chime in!  Do you think John Ottman would make an acceptable choice to score one of the new Star War's films?  Did you enjoy his work for Superman Returns? ...

Christopher Coleman's insight:

Composer John Ottman shares about returning to the X-Men franchise after a decade-long absence.  He shares about his new theme for Professor X, composing the score for the opening action sequence twice, the apparent relationship between Magneto's theme in X-Men: First Class and his theme for Wolverine in X2: X-Men United.  He also talks about how using source cue/song can be more effective in a scene than an original piece.

Very promising soundclips!  Could this be 2013's version of Journey 2: The Mysterious Island by Andrew Lockington?
