Musician - Composer
I have been a professional musician for over 35 years, performing, organizing and conducting film scores over the years. I have been working in a leading postproduction facility in Belgium and have seen closely the transition from analogue to digital in all its aspects.

I am on both sides of the argument. I love cinema but I don't like (anymore) the theaters where I am sitting next people eating their buckets filled with popcorn or even worse, looking at their self phones. But I don't like neither to look a good movie on an television, even a big one, with all the lights on. I have seen Roma on Netflix through my DLA JVC projector on a 3m screen, room darkened and with a decent audio system. I have loved it and it's - in my point of view - a theatrical movie made for the big screen. I am just wondering how well people (crew) but also composers or editors, re-recording artists etc..are paid in the 'Original Netflix Movies - Series' because I see a pattern of mass-production especially in their series: sometimes good but sometimes very poor indeed. 'Bird box' and 'Roma' are great, worth to watch in the right conditions.
