A Reminder List of works submitted in the Original Score
category shall be sent with a nominations ballot to all members of the Music
Branch who shall vote in the order of their preference for not more than five
achievements. The five achievements receiving the highest number of votes will
become the nominations for final voting for the award.To be eligible, the original score must be a substantial body of music that

serves as original dramatic underscoring, and must be written specifically for
the motion picture by the submitting composer. Scores diluted by the use of
tracked themes or other preexisting music, diminished in impact by the
predominant use of songs, or assembled from the music of more than one composer
shall not be eligible.Per Kris Tapley, notable exclusions:
The notable exclusions this year are work from Cliff Martinez (“Drive”),
Howard Shore (“A Dangerous Method”), Christophe Beck (“The Muppets”) and
Alexandre Desplat (“A Better Life”). Each, however, is in the race elsewhere,
but it’s unfortunate in the case of the latter as it is one of Desplat’s two
best stabs in an accomplished and prolific year.Also not on the list, to my great dismay, is Steven Price and Basement Jaxx’s

outstanding work on “Attack the Block.” Humbug to that, I say. And Hans Zimmer,
you’ll recall, opted out of the race this year. So his work on a number of
films, including “Rango” and “Sherlock Holmes: A Game of Shadows” does not
appear on the list.I think the final set of nominations will end up being the two John Williams Scores (The Adventures of Tintin & War Horse), The Artist, Hugo and The Girl With the Dragon Tattoo. It’s a weak field for the Oscar bait scores and it’s highly unlikely the Academy will go for the more original scores like Hanna.
