[mb-style] RFC STYLE-120: New work type: "Film score"

I'm proposing to add "Film score" to the work type list. Film score as a term doesn't only cover orchestral scores for symphony orchestra, it covers any type of music composed for a film. Wikipedia page about film scores: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Film_score Some example film score works in

Isn't that covered by "soundtrack"? If not, what would be the difference between the two? On Thu, Jun 7, 2012 at 3:14 PM, Alex Mauer wrote: > On 06/07/2012 06:22 AM, ListMyCDs.com wrote: > > I'm proposing to add "Film score" to the work type list. > > > > Film score as a term doesn't only cover

I don't think soundtrack would be suitable for work type. Film composer is composing for the film, not for the soundtrack. Soundtrack is an audio recording including also dialogue and sound effects. There's big difference with a process for composing music for different mediums. I see there hug

If there's a work with a type "Film score" and having a composer credited for it, it won't be having songs or works written by other composers as part of this work. Song will be having a work type "song". There's no need for special types like "song for the film" or "song for the play", it's st
