Film and Television
Bruce Robb was credited on his first movie soundtrack in the 1970s alongside Flo and Eddie of The Turtles when they produced an original score for a racy Roger Corman flick. Consistent with many Corman alums, it was the beginning of an impressive resume with credits in film and television equal to Robb’s album discography. He has particularly attracted the directors known for their distinct taste in music, such as David Lynch. The projects have been as varied as producing Shelley Duvall and Robin Williams singing showtunes for Robert Altman’s “Popeye” to recording a full orchestra in the scoring of “Twins.” He has also been credited as a producer alongside prominent music supervisors like Evyen Klean, with whom he collaborated for HBO’s Golden Globe award-winning "Lackawanna Blues". His most recent movie credit is the Amy Smart vehicle “Love N' Dancing,” for which he is listed as the music supervisor-producer and soundtrack producer, with other varied music credits (producer, engineer, arranger, mixing, performer, composer) on over 30 original songs recorded for the film’s dance choreography.

Famous quotes containing the words film and/or television:
“Film as dream, film as music. No art passes our conscience in the way film does, and goes directly to our feelings, deep down into the dark rooms of our souls.”
—Ingmar Bergman (b. 1918)
“The television screen, so unlike the movie screen, sharply reduced human beings, revealed them as small, trivial, flat, in two banal dimensions, drained of color. Wasn’t there something reassuring about it!—that human beings were in fact merely images of a kind registered in one another’s eyes and brains, phenomena composed of microscopic flickering dots like atoms. They were atoms—nothing more. A quick switch of the dial and they disappeared and who could lament the loss?”
—Joyce Carol Oates (b. 1938)
