Shie Rozow is teaming up with Oscar winner Erroll Morris and 4 time Oscar nominee Danny Elfman as Music Editor for the upcoming feature documentary The Unknown Known. This will be Shie’s 3rd collaboration with Morris (they previously worked together on Standard Operating Procedure and Tabloid) and a continuation of his decade-long collaboration with Elfman.

In Time of Silver Rain: Seven Poems of Langston Hughes is released on iTunes & amazon.com. In this album that was music edited by Shie, composer Lior Rosner uses his music to liberate Hughes’ words from the boundaries of historical context. Rosner’s modern settings challenge us to consider the contemporary relevance of Hughes’ frank and often searing meditations on the universal themes of oppression, loss, frustration and love. While the emotions captured in these songs are indeed timeless, beneath the undeniable modernity of Rosner’s music, there are subtle harmonic nods to the jazz that provided the sonic backdrop for the Harlem Renaissance. Acclaimed soprano Janai Brugger sings, with Rosner accompanying on piano.

Oz The Great & Powerful opened this past weekend to a resounding $80.3 million in domestic sales and $150 million worldwide. This marks this year’s biggest opening, and the 3rd biggest March opening of all time! Shie Rozow was a music editor on this project marking his 19th feature film collaboration with renown composer Danny Elfman.

Continuing his long-time collaboration with composer Danny Elfman, Shie has joined the music editorial crew of Epic.

Epic features the voices Beyoncé Knowles, Colin Farrell, Josh Hutcherson, and Amanda Seyfried.

Shie has been invited to lecture during the winter session of the International Film Scoring Lab, at Centro Sperimentale di Cinematografia’s Scoula Nazionale Di Cinema – Italian National School of Cinema.
