Welcome to SYNC Radio! The show discusses music – more specifically that of film and television. From composers to music supervisors, let's unpack how and why songs and scores impact our viewing experiences so deeply.

  1. The Sims

    The Sims

    We're straying from our usual discussion of film and TV today to discuss the beloved franchise The Sims. Whether you play it consistently or, as I do, play it for two weeks straight and then hold off for a few months, The Sims has gone through many iterations, with each providing a unique soundscape that immerses the player in their experience. To allow every individual player to create their own world requires versatility, and through both score and Simlish music, The Sims walks a fine line between familiarity and individuality.

    Scoring the Sitcom – Arrested Development and Curb Your Enthusiasm (SYNC on Twitch)

    IMPORTANT NOTE: I had my mic volume very low at the beginning, so around 4:50, it will jump up. Headphone users beware! I'm so sorry. Welcome to the final episode of SYNC on Twitch! Today, we're talking about sitcoms: specifically Arrested Development and Curb Your Enthusiasm. These shows have VASTLY different scores and soundscapes, but each utilizes music in a similar way. How do sound effects, leitmotif, and differential scoring techniques reflect the nature of each show, and how do they add to the humor and character of them?

    Hallmark Holidays | SYNC on Twitch

    Welcome to a very special holiday episode of SYNC on Twitch! Today, we're talking about Hallmark films. Their debut was a serious cultural reset, and they have a specific tone that created an entire subgenre of cheesy yet heartfelt holiday movies. Many of these films have a smaller music budget, so how do they make use of what they have? How do the soundtracks of these add to their iconic reputation?

    Spinning Out and Classical Movement | Soundtrack Summer (SYNC on Twitch)

    Welcome to the Soundtrack Summer series, where we explore one collection of work each episode and break down how music affects both the fictional world and the viewer experience. Spinning Out is an immaculate show on Netflix about skating, family, and mental health, and the music plays a key role in setting the soundscape of both the skating world and a person's inner demons. I talk about the soundtrack and how the use of classical composition mixed with a specific subgenre of placed songs creates a compelling piece of art. Streamed live on Twitch 9/12/20 (sorry it's taken so long to upload!) Note: I had audio issues during the intro, so here it is: "Hello, and welcome to SYNC, a show where we talk about music in film and television, why it's important, and the music supervisors and composers who make it all happen. My name is Emma, and today I'm talking about Spinning Out." Website: https://www.syncradiolive.com

    The Devil Wears Prada | Soundtrack Summer (SYNC on Twitch)

    Welcome to the Soundtrack Summer series, where we explore one collection of work each episode and break down how music affects both the fictional world and the viewer experience. The Devil Wears Prada is an absolutely ICONIC film, and so much of that is due to the show's use of music and its unbelievably diverse soundtrack. How do all of these somewhat random songs come together to create such a captivating narrative? Streamed 8/29/20 on Twitch (sorry it's taken me so long to upload!)

    Scream Queens | Soundtrack Summer (SYNC on Twitch)

    Welcome to the Soundtrack Summer series, where we explore one collection of work each episode and break down how music affects both the fictional world and the viewer experience. Scream Queens has an iconic soundtrack filled with '80s hits, perfectly encapsulating the show's homage to the campy horror of the era. How does the music contribute to both the show's drama and humor? Streamed live on Twitch on 8/15/20 (sorry it's taken so long to upload!) Website: https://www.syncradiolive.com

    Dead to Me | Soundtrack Summer (SYNC on Twitch)

    Welcome to the Soundtrack Summer series, where we explore one collection of work each episode and break down how music affects both the fictional world and the viewer experience. Dead to Me has a unique soundtrack that blends older soft pop, soul, and modern indie to set the tone for the show's dark yet comedic narrative. How does the music support – through visual/narrative similarity or contrast – the show's unique style? Does song placement hold clues to individual characters and their motivations? This episode also raised funds for The Bail Project! Streamed 8/8/2020. Website: https://www.syncradiolive.com

    Gossip Girl | Soundtrack Summer (SYNC on Twitch)

    Welcome to the Soundtrack Summer series, where we explore one collection of work each episode and break down how music affects both the fictional world and the viewer experience. Gossip Girl features numerous hit songs of the late aughts and early '10s, and many have made a lasting impact on pop music and stars as we know it. But how does a catchy and immediately recognizable song fit into a fictional narrative (however realistic)? Does their iconic nature help or hinder our belief in the world of the Upper East Side teenager? This episode also raised funds for The Bail Project! Streamed 7/10/2020.
