Nicholas Hooper Interview


Maestro

Recommended Posts

Hooper struck me as a very humble, down-to-earth, "simple" kind of guy. Most of his professional life has consisted of writing small scores for "small" projects. Even for Harry Potter he didn't have to leave London.

Harry Potter represents the first (and only) giant, Hollywood scoring experience he's had, and I think it was quite hard on him (what with the time constraints, studio pressure, etc.). I got the impression that he'd be content just leading a quiet life in London from now on, without dabbling in mega blockbusters like this anymore.

I felt quite sympathetic towards the chap, really.

That's probalby true. Well, I am sure most of RCP scoremakers are nice people too. I noticed that Ramin Djawadi is a very likeable guy, too bad I don't like his music.

I was guilty of that too. I guess we all underestimated how the producers felt about having him on the first three.

Not everybody. But yeah, most people did.
