Soundtrack Audience at BUG: Opening Night

 

  • I'm really interested in SOUNDTRACK - it's a festival that appeals to me as an actor and a musician. There's not any film festival in the UK that celebrates this make or break element of the film - the soundtrack - and those who excel creatively in this field. I'm pleased to be associated with SOUNDTRACK, and pleased this new festival will draw attention to Wales.- Rhys Ifans, Actor & Musician

  • There are far too many film festivals in the world today, so new ones have to be distinctive. SOUNDTRACK is very much so. It's not so much about new movies, as the crucial creative relationship film has with music. And in the coming years it intends to be really international. And it's not about the boring old middle-brow. And it's taking place in a shape-shifting city, Cardiff. What's not to like?- Mark Cousins, Filmmaker, Author and Broadcaster

  • I am delighted to accept the invitation to be on the advisory panel for SOUNDTRACK. It is a pleasure to lend my support to this ambitious film event; here is a festival which manages to celebrate not only the film and music industries of Wales, but balance with an international appeal.- Jonathan Pryce, Actor

  • I am always proud when a dynamic event comes from Wales. I'm delighted that SOUNDTRACK is taking on and celebrating the best of the International and Welsh film and music industry, and I am sure it will establish itself in a prominent position amongst other film festivals across the world.- Ioan Gruffudd, Actor

  • “The exploding role of music in the soundtrack of our digital lives means a festival like this is crucial.”- Danny Boyle, Director

  • SOUNDTRACK is an exciting and innovative event that I am proud to be a part of. It is an opportunity to draw worldwide film and music industry focus and media attention to Wales whilst also celebrating the best in film and music talent from here, as well as in the rest of the UK and worldwide. I’m pleased to be supporting a festival that strives to achieve that.- James Dean Bradfield, Manic Street Preachers

 

About

The Soundtrack International Film and Music Festival was launched in 2008 as an annual event that would celebrate the distinctive relationship between music and the moving image. Based in Cardiff , the Capital city of Wales, but with satellite events reaching around the country, the inaugural Soundtrack took place between the 26-29th of November 2008, with a packed programme of Premieres, Master Classes, Q&A’s, Educational Workshops and exceptional Live Performances.

In 2008, Soundtrack welcomed guests Danny Boyle and Oscar winning composer Gabriel Yared to Cardiff, alongside DJ and composer David Holmes and respected actor Jonathan Pryce. Danny Boyle presented the second ever UK screening of Slumdog Millionaire as our Opening Night Film, which followed a Master Class with the director. Gabriel Yared performed alongside the BBC National Orchestra of Wales at the iconic Millennium Centre, in tribute to the late Anthony Minghella, as well as delivering a composer’s Master Class.

Soundtrack 2009 took place between the 18th-22nd of November, and saw legendary Velvet Underground founder John Cale performing his classic album ‘Paris 1919’ in its entirety, for the first time ever, at Cardiff Coal Exchange. Cale also took part in an ‘In Conversation’ around his composition work for film. Also performing at Soundtrack ’09 were Super Furry Animals, who played a set from their Creation Records years, to tie in with our preview of ‘Upside Down: The Creation Records Story’, while SFA frontman Gruff Rhys also premiered his first movie ‘Seperado!’ at the festival. Legendary music doc/filmmaker Julien Temple presented ‘Oil City Confidential’ followed by a Q&A; Hammer historians DR David Huckvale and Marcus Hearn debated ‘The Music of Hammer Horror’ and cutting edge production house Warp Films traced their history in a special industry session.

Soundtrack took a break in 2010, not surprisingly coinciding with the major shake-up in British arts funding. Those hurdles were overcome, with the Soundtrack International Film & Music Festival returning from the 16th-20th of November 2011 in Cardiff, but also branching out into the neighbouring city of Newport.

In 2011 we welcomed Adam Buxton and his ‘BUG: The Evolution of Music Video’ show to Cardiff for the first time, as well as a specially commissioned live score of ‘Faust’ by Guillemots. There was a Q&A with the legendary Don Letts, the ‘X Banned: A Clockwork Orange’ exhibition with materials from the Stanley Kubrick Archive and a city shaking concert by Dimmu Borgir; All in addition to the usual packed programme of screenings.

2012 saw the 4th installment of the festival, as we were joined by composers David Arnold and David Julyan for Masterclasses; Parisian director Vincent Moon presented new work from his Petites PlanÄ—tes’ project, there were concerts from master percussionist Joby Burgess, singer-songwriter Lucy Rose and psych-legends Gong; whilst Fake Blood closed the festival with his re-imagined live score for Dario Argento’s ‘Suspiria’.

Soundtrack will celebrate its 5th birthday in November 2013, with dates to be announced soon. Check out the digital brochure below to see what went down last year.

View from the aisle: I am a big fan of David Julyan. He is brilliant and to be included on this site is an honor. He is the reason I have a collection of movie soundtracks and I continue to hunt down great film music. Because of him, I have become a Ray Ban eyewear officianado. I managed to smash my glasses with my suitcase and ugh! Since I had broken my leg three weeks before in a ski accident, there was no way I was going to drive an hour to the mall to choose new frames. But I quickly found a site that has a large selection of Ray Ban glasses - see for yourself. And I found one that looks just like the one David is known for. I learned that buying something that requires a prescription (lenses) requires a bit more work since you need to supply way more information than for a normal purchase. It took awhile and perhaps normally I would have gotten frustrated, but with the sound track of The Cabin In The Woods playing in the background I felt centered and chilled.

Now that I know how to order I will return to Eyeglasses.com the next time I need new frames. The new glasses arrived in about two weeks and man, what a difference the prescription adjustment made.
Enjoy Track#21.



Track #21, Youth, from the Cabin in the Woods Original Soundtrack album, composed by David Julyan

Mini Music Doc Award

Launched in 2012, the Soundtrack Mini Music Doc Award welcomes submissions of films running under 30 minutes, which fall within the general boundaries of music documentary; focussing on a musician or band, instrument, scene, song, record label, venue or genre or anything else associated with music. Stand alone music videos are ineligible, although videos featured as part of an extended film are.

The Soundtrack Mini Music Doc Award is presented at the festival each November, with the winner receiving a cash prize of £500.00 and opportunities for further screenings at partner festivals.

Submissions are reduced to a shortlist of 5 by the Soundtrack Programme Team, before the Soundtrack Guest Judging Panel cast their votes. The shortlist is also screened during the festival, where the audience can also vote for their favourite film.

We recieved a high standard of entries from all over the globe, whittling them down to a five film shortlist was a pretty tough task. After much deliberation we narrowed it down the entries to Criterioh, Randy Parsons: American Luthier, One Big Holiday, Honky Tonk Ben and The Yodeling Farmer.

After negotiating our panel of judeges and three audience votes, the votes for each film were tallied, and we're pleased announce that the winner of the Mini Music Doc Award 2012 is Criterioh, directed by Alberto Blanco. The film follows Spanish rapper Fernando Fernandez aka Criterioh, as he fights to find his way in the world of rap. It is a truly moving piece of filmmaking which struck a cord with our judges and audiences alike and Soundtrack offers its sincere congratulations to our director Alberto Blanco, who becames the first ever recipient of the Mini Music Doc Award!

We will be calling for submissions for the 2013 competition from June onwards, at which point we will also upload entry forms and submission conditions.
