Games Designer Paul Bennun explores the growing popularity and ambition of music composed for video games.
Video games now have the resources to match that of the big Hollywood orchestral film scores. But it's not just commercially that video game soundtracks are taken seriously. Composers are becoming more interested in it artistically and BAFTA and the Ivor Novellos have recently recognised the form with their own award categories.
Bennun traces the development of this new genre and finds out how it is changing the way music is made and consumed. Has it now left behind bleeps and bloops and arrived at the brink of artistic respectability?
Producer: Russell Finch.
