Interview With Grey’s Music Producer Alexandra Patsavas
Buddy TV has landed an exclusive interview with Grey’s talented Music Producer, Alexandra Patsavas. She is all sorts of awesome and her music taste rocks. She can recommend music to me any day of the week.
How did you get started in the music industry? Have you always had a passion for music?
I did. I was the kid who went to a bunch of rock shows and at the time that I was young I was buying LP’s and imports and by the time I was in college I was booking for my university first, and then I had my own little promotion company. So I’d bring acts, touring acts to campus. So, that’s how I started.
Can you describe the song selection process?
There really isn’t a specific way that every song gets selected. You know in music-heavy shows, we can license as many as six to eight an episode. Sometimes songs are scripted, sometimes we pitch, after we’ve read the script sometimes we look at already edited and compiled footage and think about songs at that time. So, it really does happen in all sorts of ways.
So is the process different for television and movies?
No. The only difference is that the time frame is completely compressed in television. In a movie you might have six months or seven months from the time that the movie is shot to the time that it’s mixed. In television we can have, typically, a week turnaround. So you know, it’s a difference between months and weeks.
