BMI (Broadcast Music, Inc.) has announced its programming for the 2022 Sundance Film Festival today with two virtual Score to Screen panels featuring two conversations that will give an inside look at the creative process of incorporating music in film while delving into the relationship between a composer and the film’s director or producer. Grammy and Academy Award winner Common and composer Patrick Warren (The Chi) co-produced and curated the music for the drama/thriller Alice written and directed by Krystin Ver Linden and starring Keke Palmer, Common himself, Jonny Lee Miller & Gaius Charles about a brave young woman who escapes a life of slavery on a secluded Georgia plantation, only to realize that not everything is as it seems. They will discuss how how they came to work on this project, take viewers into the inner workings of the score for the film, elaborate on their creative process and beyond. Both the film and the conversation will premiere on January 23. Actress/writer/director/producer Amy Poehler and Emmy and Grammy Award-nominated composer David Schwartz will discuss their collaboration on the documentary Lucy and Desi, which chronicles the life of the much beloved Lucille Ball and Desi Arnaz.
