Audiophiles and Star Wars fans who are attending SDCC will want to check out the special presentation EA and Lucasfilm are cooking up.
Accompaniment
One of the most important parts of Star Wars, or any movie actually, is the score. Created by John Williams, Star Wars’ score has given the pop culture landscape a number of classic melodies, some of which are still in use by the franchise today. And by that, we mean in the way of both movies… and video games.
Bringing that auditory flavor to SDCC will be EA and Lucasfilm, who’ve got a special panel in the works to celebrate it. Moderated by one Chandler Poling (White Bear PR), and with the support of ASCAP and BMI, The Star Wars Musical Universe with Lucasfilm & EA Games will welcome in Star Wars: Jedi Survivor’s co-composers Gordy Haab & Stephen Barton, plus Respawn Entertainment’s audio director, Nick Laviers.
The trio will be delving into the audio design of the recently released title, and taking a look at how the game makes use of music in its campaign.
There is hardly a more iconic musical landscape than what the Star Wars franchise has brought to the world. This panel will explore the creative forces that went into making the original music heard within the recent video game release of Star Wars: Jedi Survivor. From the sweeping score to the infectious beats of the in-world songs, the game utilizes music on a whole new level.
EA press release
As you can see, the show takes place on Friday, July 21st, in room 7AB at the San Diego Convention Center. Friday is officially “Star Wars Day” at the Con too, so this should provide a nice kickoff for that as well. Just don’t forget to get there nice and early if you want in, because this is probably going to fill up fast. May the Force be with you.
