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 is more than the twentieth-century art. It’s another part of the twentieth-century mind. It’s the world seen from inside. We’ve come to a certain point in the history of film. If a thing can be filmed, the film is implied in the thing itself. This is where we are. The twentieth century is on film.... You have to ask yourself if there’s anything about us more important than the fact that we’re constantly on film, constantly watching ourselves.”
—Don Delillo (b. 1926)
“Television is an excellent system when one has nothing to lose, as is the case with a nomadic and rootless country like the United States, but in Europe the affect of television is that of a bulldozer which reduces culture to the lowest possible denominator.”
—Marc Fumaroli (b. 1932)
