Hi
UHp have transcripted the entire audio interview from Cannes festival of Alexandre Desplat, composer of Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows Part 1 original soundtrack.

here their translation, don't forget to link www.universharrypotter.com if you use on yours websites/blog etc...

It's amazing. This is an big project which I have for this summer, which is going to take me until September.
I am very proud because I find that Harry Potter are brilliant books, sometimes slandered , what I find ridiculous because they are really brilliantly written. And then movies are all different. There it is an amazing director, who is called David Yates, who is really talented, who has already realized both precedents and who goes realized the last two episodes. Thus this one, it is the last front. And because the music theme which was created by John William for the series is absolutely fantastic. John William is a total genius. And I have no obligation to use many of the theme, but I know that I shall make it with pleasure, because it is a lesson of melody. I am going to attack that with a lot of energy, enthusiasm and enjoyment.

I read at the same time the French and English versions of the book. And then I read the script. I am going to wait that the movie is editing. I am soon going to see it, in some weeks, I go to see that edited.
Journalist RTL: what means that you have a very short deadline of manufacturing.
" Not not, for me, it is very long. Because generally I write very fast. For a movie, I write between 3 weeks and one month. There will be rather two-three months. For me it is royal, it is almost too long. I risk to get lost myself "
