From Film Scores to Inspiration: The Music of The Fat Lady

Music has always been a part of my life—not just for the fun and simple pleasure of listening and singing along, but because my dad was a musician and music producer. So, my understanding of music goes beyond that; he would talk to me about legends like Henry Mancini and Quincy Jones. We’d discuss music created for films and TV, and I was always fascinated by it. In fact, I would buy film soundtracks just to enjoy the music from certain movies.

The first one is me, record with my cousins my dad's album

That’s why, for my first short film, The Fat Lady - She Just Wanted to Be Called by Her Name (coming soon!), music played a crucial role in the scene creation process. I’m so grateful to have been able to work with artists I admire, who kindly allowed me to use their incredible songs in the film.

Special thanks to Helena Cutter for her sexy and witty track "Your Time is Over," and the talented guys from Wonderhills for "Outside in the Morning," "Reflections" (so beautiful), and "Rogue Wind."
