MaximsNewsNetwork: 08 October 2009 - UNTV: Actors and directors from the American network ABC talk about their season premiere of Ugly Betty' which raises awareness about malaria. A United Nations-backed campaign to raise awareness about malaria which claims over one million lives annually has a starring role on the season premiere of the hit United States television comedy, Ugly Betty. Airing on 16 October, the two-hour special will centre around the efforts by the main character, Betty Suarez, a young woman recently promoted to become the features editor at a fashion magazine, to draw attention to the Nothing But Nets scheme. Under that campaign, the UN Foundation (UNF) seeks to curb the spread of malaria by providing insecticide-treated bed nets, each costing ten dollars, to communities in greatest need. UNF Director Elizabeth McKee Gore expressed excitement over the show choosing to help the Nothing but Nets campaign spread the buzz. She said that malaria, while very serious, is a good news story as it gives people the opportunity to donate ten dollars and send a net and save a life.

Composer Alan Silvestri was originally hired to write the score for The Curse of the Black Pearl. However due to creative differences between him and producer Jerry Bruckheimer, Silvestri left the project and Gore Verbinski asked Hans Zimmer, whom he had worked with on The Ring, to step in. Zimmer declined to do the bulk of the composing as he was busy scoring The Last Samurai, a project during which he claimed he had promised not to take any other assignments. As a result he referred Verbinski to Klaus Badelt, a relatively new composer who'd been a part of Remote Control Productions (known as Media Ventures at the time) for three years. Zimmer however ended up collaborating with Badelt to write most of the score's primary themes, many of which are featured in an all-synthesized demo credited to him. This demo presents three of the score's themes and motifs, concluding with an early version of "He's A Pirate" which contains departures from the final cue, including development of a melody Zimmer wrote for the score to Drop Zone.) Since the schedule was very tight and the music was needed for the film in three weeks time, seven other composers — Ramin Djawadi, James Dooley, Nick Glennie-Smith, Steve Jablonsky, Blake Neely, James McKee Smith, and Geoff Zanelli — were also called upon to help orchestrate the music and write additional cues. The resulting score was recorded with a group of musicians, credited as the Hollywood Studio Symphony, over the course of four days. The ...
