Music scores for Star Wars or Indiana Jones have undoubtedly inscribed themselves in popular imagination, not only illustrating the movies, but also co-creating their transmedial storyworlds. One should not forget, at the same time, that movie, TV series or video game soundtracks featured also critically acclaimed soundtracks, such as music to Dracula or, more contemporarily, BAFTA-winning OST for Deus Ex: Human Revolution by Michael McCann. Correspondingly, International Conference Music Across Media, co-organised by Facta Ficta Research Centre in Kraków and The Chopin Institute in Warsawaims at bringing up more of such examples and bridging a professional musicologist approach with media and fan studies.
