Join DEGANZ and the Screen Music and Sound Guild for a candid conversation with the creative team of The Weed Eaters.
Director Callum Devlin, composer Callum Passells, and producer Annabel Kean will share how they approached the music on their debut feature, from evolving pre-existing creative relationships and developing a shared language to making practical decisions about budget, the original score, and existing music.
Moderated by composer Karl Sölve Steven, this discussion will help filmmakers better understand the role music plays in shaping audience experience, strengthening storytelling, and elevating projects at any budget level.
Whether you're a director looking for a composer, a composer hoping to break into screen work, or a producer trying to get the most value from a limited budget, this discussion will offer practical insights into making music work for your project.
