Eastern European nations and Western nations in general usually have great orchestral teams (players, arranger/orchestrator, conductor) with very strong musical background, can deliver excellent quality of music in shortest possible time for relatively cheap price. Their recording/concert hall and the players amalgam have their own unique sound which can uplift a movie.
Eastern European orchestra's are usually cheaper compared to their western counter parts, so you can see lot of Czech, Budapest orchestras playing in low budget movies. There is more to choosing an orchestra than budget, but I am glad that our Boss is thinking along international standards. I wish FX/Sound design (yeah dishoom dishoom sounds) and Visual FX people start doing the same. *sigh* -- :: Bharath http://singingphotons.net On 5/15/07, Sarathy S <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote:
Usually a film unit would prefer to shoot scenes abroad be it songs or story demanding locations. But what is the need for Music Directors to either record or re-record sounds in abroad like arr doing in london, czech etc.. for indian movies... when ARR himself owns a complete new hi-tech studio to international standards in Chennai. For that sake even other chennai music directors sometimes do record songs & bgms in abroad or other indian cities' studios when there are hi-tech studios in chennai itself. Why is this practice ? or What could be the fact other than reasons like chennai studios are booked for some other movie projects on the dates required. Coz such practice involve heavy expenditure for that producer ?? *Mohd Nash <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>* wrote: It's official now. AVM came up with an announcement on Friday, the 10th of May on the release date of its next Magnum Opus production - Sivaji. The worldwide release date has been announced as 31st May. Generally, expectations soar high where Shankar's movies are concerned - it just got bigger with Rajini. Sivaji will be AVM Productions' 168th movie. With Sivaji, Rajini's will be completing his century in Kollywood. Another interesting fact is, this movie is AVM-Rajini combo's 9 th venture together. Incidentally this is Shankar's 8th movie, which happens to be his lucky number. If you suppose Rajini-Shankar-AVM combination is big enough, then think again. Because all the biggies in their respective fields of expertise have worked for Sivaji. Camera by KV Anand, art direction by Thotta Dharani, editing by Antony, dialogues by Sujatha, music by AR Rahman, lyrics by Vaali, Vairamuthu, Na Muthukumar and Pa Vijay and stunts by Peter Haynes just to name a few. AR Rahman's hard work seems to have obtained the desired results. As Sivaji's songs, which are repeatedly broadcasted by all radio stations, are now the talk of the town. The movie's BGM and re-recording, which have come out exceptionally well and far more superior have been done at London and Czech Republic's capital Prague. Stunt master Peter Haynes' fight scenes have been made aiming at perfection. KV Anand has used the latest technology "Super 35 and 4K." It is the first time that 4K technology is being used for a Tamil movie. Sivaji will also be the first Tamil movie to have more number of prints than ever before. According to the press release every teeny weeny bit of detail is taken care of. http://www.behindwoods.com/tamil-movie-news/may-07-03/14-05-07-sivaji.html ------------------------------ Yahoo!
