Timothy Williams is a multi-award-winning composer who has written music for some of the most iconic movie scenes in history, including the sunken place in Get Out!, the barn door opening in Pearl and the death of Leonidas in 300. Tim has had a passion for film scores since he was a child. He fell in love with bringing stories to life with music always looking to find the perfect marriage of music for the story and visuals. Timothy began as a classical concert pianist, but quickly found himself spending more time playing in bands and composing music than practicing. A move to LA in the early 2000s started this 20 year journey of having the opportunities to create music for some of the most iconic movies. Early work included writing additional music, orchestrating and conducting films like 300, Watchmen, Super, Sucker Punch, Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 1 and Vol. 2, (Fast and Furious presents) Hobbs and Shaw, Deadpool 2 and Get Out! This breath of work lead to working as a composer with Robert Duvall on Wild Horses, John Moore on I.T., starring Pierce Brosnan, James Gunn and Dave Yarovesky on Brightburn, Tom Hanks on the documentary Beyond All Boundaries, Mario Van Peebles on Red Sky and Marc Meyers on We Summon The Darkness. Tim recently co-scored the iconic Ti West's A24 film Pearl which won numerous international awards as best horror score. Upcoming releases include Mary for Netflix, directed by D. J. Caruso, starring Anthony Hopkins, Locked, starring Bill Skarsgård and Anthony Hopkins, produced by Sam Raimi and directed by Dave Yarovesky, and Eye for An Eye for Leyline Entertainment (Everything Everywhere All At Once), starring Golda Rosheuvel (Bridgerton) and directed by Colin Tilley. Other recent work includes Your Monster, the Sundance Audience Award Winner, directed by Caroline Lindy and starring Melissa Barrera, Lionsgate's The Bagman, starring Sam Claflin, Lionsgate/Roadside Attractions' Finding You and Mistura for Seine Pictures, directed by Ricardo De Montreuil, which recently won best picture at The NBFF.

Tim's music has been released on multiple soundtracks from Milan Records, Lakeshore Records, Sony Records, A24, EMI, Lionsgate Records and MovieScoreMedia.

On the podcast this time, Steven and Sean are following up last episode's sad story about losing a loved one with an equally sad story. We watched the 2020 film from Marc Meyers, All My Life.We didn't really plan to have such similar, heartbreaking stories about losing life partners to cancer back-to-back, but here we are. You take the good, you take the bad, you take them both and then you have our anti-Valentine's Day celebration.But this film poses a good question: if you knew for a certainty that you had a limited amount of time with the one you loved, then how would you spend that time? It's something we should all consider.Enjoy this touching film and the excellent conversation we had about it.(Recorded on November 09, 2023)Links to Stuff We Mentioned:All My Life - The Movie Database (TMDB)All My Life trailer - YouTubeSpoiler Alert (2022) — The Movie Database (TMDB)I Love You, Man (2009) — The Movie Database (TMDB)Pinky and the Brain (TV Series 1995–1998) — The Movie Database (TMDB)Love Actually (2003) — The Movie Database (TMDB)RED (2010) — The Movie Database (TMDB)Jessica Rothe — The Movie Database (TMDB)Happy Death Day (2017) — The Movie Database (TMDB)La La Land (2016) — The Movie Database (TMDB)Harry Shum Jr. — The Movie Database (TMDB)Contact (1997) — The Movie Database (TMDB)Contact | More Movies Please! - BuzzsproutMarc Meyers — The Movie Database (TMDB)Follow Us:Give us a rating and review on Apple Podcasts!Our Buzzsprout site!Our Instagram profile!Our Twitter profile!Support the show
CarneyShow 12.19.22 Marc Meyers, Greg Willard, Martin Kilcoyne by
Len and Michael talked with Meyers about what method he used to compile the songs.
This week is a real treat, no tricks! We welcome back to the podcast director, Marc Meyers to discuss his horror film, "We Summon the Darkness" from 2019. This is horror imbued with humor - the best kind in our humble opinion. And with all sorts of movies and documentaries about Jeffrey Dahmer having a moment, we decided to also talk to Marc about his film, "My Friend Dahmer" which is the only film that can claim to have actually shot in Jeffrey Dahmer's childhood home. That is spooky in and of itself. This is a real peek behind the curtain of movie making. We've got questions and Marc is answering all of them. So if you've been sick of hearing just Anne and Crissy blather on for the last few months, then this is the episode for you. We only blather for half the time while Marc takes the spotlight. This is a good one! crissy & anne --- Send in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/crissy-shropshire/message
I interview Tim Williams, composer of the soundtrack for the movie Pearl. (Oct 11, 2022) Here's the press release from his publicist: (September 15, 2022 – Los Angeles, CA) – Today, A24 Music released the single “Pearl Main Titles” from the Pearl Original Motion Picture Soundtrack with music by Tyler Bates & Timothy Williams, listen here. The full 19-track album will be available September 23 on major digital platforms. With only six weeks to assemble a 68-person orchestra, Bates brought in frequent collaborator Timothy Williams, who worked with the composer on Guardians of the Galaxy, to help him audition musicians, build the orchestra, rehearse over four days in Nashville, and record the score. “In the style of mid-century melodramas,” says West, “Tyler Bates fashioned a sweeping, shrieking, strings-based score that lets the viewer know from the opening credits that Pearl will not be a subdued or quiet film. I said to him, ‘let's do a romantic, melodramatic, old-school score for this movie.'” He continues, “This wasn't the first time I've used live instruments on a movie—but it was the first time I had a full orchestra. It was awesome. Tyler and Tim really hit it out of the park. The score is very much one of the film's central characters, and that was important." “Ti expressed the musical approach to this film with us before filming,” says Bates & Williams. “We knew that the music would be based in an "Old Hollywood" approach, which stylistically is something we both love to do. This was a rare opportunity to write a lyrical score where the main theme permeates the music throughout the myriad emotional and psychological dynamics from beginning to end.” ABOUT TIM Timothy Williams is a multi-award-winning composer best known for his work on Pearl, Finding You, Brightburn, and Get Out! Williams' films includes A24's Pearl, co-scored with Tyler Bates, Gravitas' The Swearing Jar, Roadside Attractions' Finding You, Screen Gems' Brightburn, directed by David Yarovesky, We Summon The Darkness, directed by Marc Meyers, which won best score award at ScreamfestLA; Wild Horses, directed by Robert Duvall; I.T., directed by John Moore, and Red Sky, for which Tim Williams was nominated Best Composer by Motion Picture Sound Editors and best score at the Hollywood Music in Media Awards. Williams has written additional music for the Academy Award® and Golden Globe® winner Get Out!, Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 1 and Vol. 2, Hobbs and Shaw, Deadpool 2, 300, Watchmen, Super, Sucker Punch, and The Spy Who Dumped Me. Television work includes co-scoring AMC/Shudder Creepshow with Tyler Bates, Disney Junior's Piney, the Fox pilot Richard Lovely, and additional music on Fox's The Exorcist (S2), ABC's Missing and Comedy Network's Sym-Bionic Titan. A graduate of the National Film and Television School, Williams has received two Motion Picture SE Golden Reel Award nominations (Red Sky), four Thea Award wins, 10 ASCAP Plus Awards and won best score at the 24FPS Festival (Butterfly Circus), best score at ScreamfestLA 2019 (We Summon The Darkness) and best soundtrack nomination at the HMMA Awards (Red Sky). Tim has had multiple soundtracks released by Milan Records, Lakeshore Records, Varèse Sarabande and MovieScore Media.
This month fear is front and center as we begin our 2nd annual horror movie fest! As everyone well knows, Anne likes to zig where others zag so this week we are taking a look at the films, "Slumber Party Massacre" and "Slumber Party Massacre 2" (there is a "Slumber Party Massacre 3" for those with who are into self flagellation but we didn't go there). These Roger Corman produced slashers feature a drill bit happy killer and his very dumb high school victims. We'd say keep your eyes covered but these movies telegraph what's about to happen from a mile away - it's pure camp at its low-budget finest. Plus, we discuss the Florida man who tried to escape a hurricane via jet ski, the nursing home who might have gone too far to entertain its residents and CatCon! What is CatCon you might be wondering? Well we did too and were surprised to find an A-list actor at the center of it. Next week we will have director Marc Meyers back on the podcast to discuss his horror film, "We Summon the Darkness". You will not want to miss that - but listen to this one first. It's scary good! Thank you for listening! crissy & anne --- Send in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/crissy-shropshire/message
Studio Soundtracks takes listeners behind the scenes of how music is crafted for film and television by hearing directly from composers, songwriters and music professionals in the Entertainment Industry. Listen to inspiring conversations about composition and hear works from Emmy, Grammy, and Oscar-winning film scores on the show. COLIN STETSON Colin Stetson was born and raised in Ann Arbor, spent a decade in San Francisco and Brooklyn honing his formidable talents as a horn player, eventually settling in Montreal in 2007. Over the years he has worked extensively, live and in studio, with a wide range of bands and musicians including Tom Waits, Arcade Fire, Bon Iver, TV On The Radio, Feist, Laurie Anderson, Lou Reed, Bill Laswell, Evan Parker, The Chemical Brothers, Animal Collective, Hamid Drake, LCD Soundsystem, The National, Angelique Kidjo, Fink, and David Gilmore. Meanwhile he has developed an utterly unique voice as a soloist, principally on saxophones and clarinets, his intense technical prowess matched by his exhilarating and emotionally gripping skills as a songwriter. Stetson's astounding physical engagement with his instruments (chiefly bass and alto saxophones) produces emotionally rich and polyphonic compositions that transcend expectations of what solo horn playing can sound like. Stemming from that approach and aesthetic, he has been contributing regularly to the world of film, TV, and game scoring over the past decade with such titles as Hereditary (2018), The First (2018), Red Dead Redemption 2 (2018), Color Out of Space (2019), Barkskins (2020), Mayday (2021), Among The Stars (2021), Texas Chainsaw Massacre (2022), The Menu (2022), and Uzumaki (2023).

“Stay the course.” PWRP is (spiritually) heading back to the east coast as Tyler sits down with Director, Producer, and Screenwriter; Marc Meyers. Having found his knack for writing while studying abroad in the U.K., Marc would produce his first short film while simultaneously writing ads and waiting tables after returning to New York. As the years went on, he would dive into the world of independent film and playwriting. His feature adaptation of My Friend Dahmer paved the way for his continued success as a Director of films such as American Capital, We Summon The Darkness, and All My Life. Stay tuned for more projects to come! SHOUTOUTS & PROMOTIONS -@marcmeyers

We Summon the Darkness and My Friend Dahmer, two of prolific director Marc Meyers latest films, unfurl almost opposite takes on serial killers. Dahmer is a sober, anti-sensationalist exploration of how a confused teen became a reviled cannibal. Darkness turns a Satanic Panic-era killing spree into a headbangers' ball of dark comedy.Meyers, as you can probably guess, has a lot of range.We Summon the Darkness opens with three young women (Alexandra Daddario, Maddie Hasson and Amy Forsyth) road-tripping to a metal show in Indiana in the 1980s. The radio mentions a string of Satanic murders, they meet three boys in the metal show parking lot, and things happen. Johnny Knoxville turns up as the voice of the religious right.We're keeping things deliberately vague, and this episode contains no significant spoilers.You're probably wondering if we also talk about Jeffrey Dahmer, the Midwestern murderer who kept victims' body parts in his freezer.

What's it like to make a career talking to the world's biggest celebrities, artists, and rock stars about their most vulnerable moments? Marc Meyers, the Wall Street Journal's “Ink Shrink,” does exactly that.Marc comes from a family of artists—his brother is a pianist, his mother wrote and illustrated children's books, and his father drew cartoons for The New Yorker. Journalism is Marc's art form: words are his paint and his columns—“House Call” and “The Anatomy of a Song” in the Wall Street Journal—are his canvas. Marc is a true master in the art of the interview, asking cultural icons like Joni Mitchell, Keith Richards, Joe Namath, and Olivia Newton John questions that probe the heart of the human condition, which makes his columns addictive reads. On this episode of The Sydcast, Marc and I talk about the importance of living your passion, qualities of stardom, the power of connecting to people through stories and print, and that one other little passion that got him into his dream job in the first place: jazz.
