  • The Placement of Pop Songs in Film As Promotion: the PRINCE of Egypt—A Mini-Case Study
    The placement of pop songs in film as promotion: The PRINCE of Egypt—a mini-case study Dean Diehl Skinner School of Business and Technology Trevecca Nazarene University ABSTRACT From humble origins as a masking sound for the clicking and clacking of early film projectors to epic masterpieces by masterful artists such as John Williams and James Horner, the use of music in film has evolved over time. This paper briefly examines the impact of the consolidation of entertainment companies into massive media giants covering film, television, video games and record labels on the use of music in film. As these media conglomerates seek to create synergy between their various divisions there is an ever-increasing potential for the aesthetic use of music in the creation of an aural atmosphere within which film makers tell their story to be compromised by the intentional introduction of songs for the purpose of increasing exposure and licensing income for priority artists. The paper includes an examination of the use of pop music in the marketing of the DreamWorks film PRINCE of Egyptas an illustrating case based on the author’s personal experience as the General Manager of a record label involved in the process. Keywords: Film Music, Film Scores, Soundtracks, Pop Music, Movie Music, Scores, Music in Film, Product Placement in Films Music has always been part of the commercial film business. From the earliest silent films to the latest blockbuster hits, music has helped filmmakers create virtual worlds in which moviegoers can immerse themselves. However, commercial pressure from large media companies starving for revenue has changed the way music interacts with film.

WHAT IS LOVE? 6.1 Identify various definitions of love and discuss three key theories that categorize types of love. While most of us have felt something we think is “love,” it is difficult to put into words exactly what that feeling is. Shaver, Morgan, and Wu (1996) define love as a physiological reaction that engenders proximity- seeking behavior. Singer (1987) describes love as a search for friendship, beauty, and spiritual connection. Love tends to include a strong sense of attachment to another person and can involve both extremely pleasurable and intensely painful experiences. When we love another person, it’s like jumping off the high dive into a pool.
