So, turns out Nicholas Britell isn’t returning for season 2 (mentioned here) outside of a few tracks; Brandon Roberts is picking up composing duties.
I’m sure the general sound will stay audially & thematically consistent to what Britell established, but it has inspired me to re-open the project files and mess around using some of Roberts’ previous work. Obviously his actual score for Andor season 2 will take precedence for use in the final project, but I am already inspired to use some of his other stuff. The places he is different from Britell open up what exactly “Andor sounds like” and that has exciting possibilities for this.
Came here to see your thoughts on the Britell > Roberts shift. This could be interesting!
Happy to see you’re getting excited to start work on this project again! Fingers crossed Season 2 ROCKS & it doesn’t throw any huge wrenches into your future re-edit.
And while I was here, have you given any thought to using the Deepfaked versions of the Tarkin & Leia scenes? I know they originated on YouTube & I think Hal9000 incorporated them into his Rogue One re-edit. They really do look a lot nice than what we got in 2017.
