    What did he mean with that?

    From a recent discussion with this years Oscar-nominated composers at hollywoodreporter.com:

    Shore: I asked an illustrator how he creates so much, and he said, "Just keep the pencil moving." Just toil. Keep the pencil moving. It's so simple. As long as your pencil is moving, you are working. If it's moving, you feel a sense of accomplishment. Even if it's not very good, you feel it's moving.

    Elfman: Do you ever feel like you are working on an equation?

    Shore: It's a cumulative process, writing music. "The Lord of the Rings" scores took almost four years to write, but it felt like 40 years because it took a lot of time for me to learn how to write that much music in that time frame, to be able to do it and orchestrate it. It's a cumulative effect that allows you to write and open up under pressure, under deadlines. It's just the experience and the cumulative energy of doing it all those years.

    Elfman: What do you do when you put that bucket down the well and you don't hear the water?

    Shore: You keep the pencil moving.

    As best as I can relate he means that a film score could be symphonic, chamber, pop, rock, operatic, jazz, folk, and country not at the same time but within the same two hours.
