A new Jim Dooley Interview
The website Xanga.com has released an interview from Jim DOOLEY who speaks from his past, current and futur works. Extract…
Clark DOUGLAS: What do you have coming up in the not-too-distant future?
Jim DOOLEY: Well, I’m working on “The Da Vinci Code” with Hans Zimmer right now, that’ll keep me busy until about March. I do have a video game I’m scoring from March to July, but I can’t say which one that is, because it hasn’t been announced yet. I have a German animation film which they’ll be releasing in Europe in May. It’s got some really interesting songs.
CD: For “The Da Vinci Code”… that’s a storyline with a lot of varied and different elements involved. What sort of direction are you and Hans taking musically with that film?
JD: Hans has all ready… pardon the pun… cracked the code, so to speak. Before I came in to lift a finger, he’d written a 700-bar suite for this score, it’s pretty breathtaking, my participation in this is not so much the upfront writer, but more the extension due to the slightly accelerated schedule of production, we’ve been scoring four weeks from yesterday, so it’s pretty tight.
