DMP congratulates Lolita Ritmanis for her World Soundtrack Awards Public Choice Award nomination! The World Soundtrack Awards were launched in 2001 as a way of honoring an often-forgotten but crucial component of films: film music and their composers. These prestigious film music awards recognize outstanding achievements with various awards, including the Public Choice Award for which Ritmanis was nominated this year for her original score from the Latvian film “Blizzard Of Souls.” Congratulations Lolita!

The film “Wild Daze” scored by Lolita Ritmanis premiered September 14, 2020 on the Laemmle Virtual Cinema. “Wild Daze is an extremely relevant documentary that explores the threats humans pose to wildlife,” said Yolanda Macias, Cinedigm’s Executive Vice-President of Acquisitions. “Phyllis not only dove into the corruption, the deforestation, the bush meat trade and the exploding human population threatening the wildlife, but she also beautifully captured the animals in their natural habitats while giving a voice to the many passionate people who work tirelessly to save them from the many threats they face.” Congratulations Lolita on your latest release!

Lolita, Michael & Kristopher have created the curriculum for an undergraduate year-long online film composition class for Hong Kong Baptist University. They will teach the class remotely in real time using videoconferencing software to allow all students in the class to interact with all three composers simultaneously. Core to the class will be a group learning environment where all students share their compositions and philosophies with each other to amplify the numerous creative approaches that bring success to a budding film composer. Having been mentored by acclaimed film composer Shirley Walker among other film composing luminaries, all three composers are pleased to be able to pass along the legacy of learning they received early in their careers to the next generation.
