The Odyssey 2005 - 2012

When I was first asked by Film4 and LOCOG to direct a film for the 2012 Olympic Games in London, I did not hesitate in contacting Antonio Pinto to create the score. I had such a fantastic experience collaborating with Antonio on the soundtrack for SENNA, I could not wait to work with him again. I love his enthusiasm, energy and passion. Within a day or two of our initial conversation Antonio came back with three fantastic and highly original cues which form the heart of THE ODYSSEY's score. One of my favourite parts of the entire filmmaking process is the moment when the images and the score first start to work together, when the music elevates the film to another level, for me this is something magical. Antonio Pinto and Dudu Aram have come together to create a beautiful, powerful soundtrack for THE ODYSSEY, which I know will have the listener nodding their head from the very first time they hear it! I hope to have many more working with Antonio Pinto.
