Call Of Duty: Modern Warfare 2 Composer departs from ‘increasingly challenging’ action with sound director
Composer for Call of Duty: Modern Warfare II, Sarah Schachner, has revealed that she’s parted ways with the free-to-play battle royale and game Call of Duty: Warzone (and possibly the upcoming Warzone 2). As for why, she said that the motivation to work with the game’s sound director had become hard, and she didn’t see the way forward. Diversity reported that the sound director in question was Stephen Miller, but Schachner did not name this person in her announcement.
News of her passing came from a statement by Schachner on Twitter on November 3, as reported. Video game chronicle. Schachner’s departure comes after years of working with Modern Warfare II’s Infinity Ward studio on games like 2019’s Call of Duty: Modern Warfare and 2016’s Call of Duty: Infinite Warfare. Other credits include Assassin’s Creed Valhalla and Anthem, as noted by VGC.
“I am sad to say that I can no longer continue to compose music for MWII/Warzone,” her statement read. “Over the past few months, the dynamic of working with the sound director has become increasingly challenging and I don’t see a way forward. Right now, I’m uncertain about the status and release plans of the soundtrack because of it. Although I do not have any control over the presentation of the music in the game, what will be released on the soundtrack is not my artistic intent regarding regarding mixing and mastering.”
She then thanked fans for their support and thanked others involved with the game’s score, including arranger Frank Wolf, “creative visionary” Mike Dean and performers including Baseck, Brain Mantia and MB Gordy.
