Daniel’s viewpoint & Collaboration

* Work ethic: ⁤ Daniel’s primary “dream” is simply to⁢ work and engage with creative projects.
* Relationship with Mona Fastvold: He describes a deep, collaborative relationship with Mona, involving extensive communication (daily for 1.5 years) and a commitment to helping her realize her vision. He chose to work⁣ on the film instead of his own music because he believes their collaboration will be fruitful.
* Relationship with Brady Corbet: His relationship with Brady is different – more physical and built on‍ a long-standing friendship ⁢(stayed on their sofa‍ for years). They frequently work late ⁣into the night. They now collaborate on almost everything.
*‍ “Clothed by the Sun” Song:

⁢ * Initially, Daniel didn’t think a⁢ new song was needed, fearing ⁤it would just be another ⁤Shaker hymn.
* Mona and Amanda encouraged him to‍ write something.
⁢*‍ He‍ wrote the song quickly while in the cinema during the mixing process, and instantly felt it was right for the film.
* He describes a feeling of effortless creation,‍ where the melody comes quickly and lyrics follow.
* ⁢ The song is described as “looser” and “slightly more contemporary” than⁢ the othre music in the film.
