Finale watchers alerted me to this video interview with Deke Sharon, the “musical force behind NBC’s ‘The Sing Off’ and both ‘Pitch Perfect’ films.” Among the highlights is a cleverly-edited sequence where he sings each part of an a cappella arrangement (seen in Finale 2014), and both the audio and the video have been multi-tracked.
I have always assumed that top movies were translated into a handful of the most widely spoken languages.
Danita Ng-Poss and Jason Poss are versatile musicians working in Los Angeles, where they are active in music preparation, transcription, proofreading, arranging, composing, orchestration, and more.
A recent Finale blog post listed several Academy Award-nominated films in which Finale played a role. Each year I create a similar list by querying friends at popular music preparation companies.
Like many readers of the Finale blog, I am keenly aware of the challenges and joys involved in juggling a professional, musical, and family life.
