00:00Welcome to Median TV, we are heading to France, where the famous Louvre museum is about to

00:14be renovated.

00:15A week after the President of the Louvre's alert about the state of the museum, French

00:20President Emmanuel Macron went to the Louvre for announcements in response to this alert.

00:26A vast plan was announced by the head of state to adapt the Louvre, the most visited museum

00:33in the world, to a massive attendance by creating a new entrance in addition to the pyramid

00:39and by moving the joconde in a space dedicated to the horizon of 1031.

00:44With the masterpiece of Leonardo da Vinci in the background in the room of the states of the

00:48Parisian Museum, the head of state wanted to be ambitious, in all simplicity, he

00:53baptized his new plan, Renaissance of the Louvre, a double wink to the historical period

00:59of the portrait of Mona Lisa, painted at the beginning of the 16th century and the cost

01:04of the project is evaluated at about 700 to 800 million euros over a decade, of which

01:10only a very minor part will be financed by the state.

01:14I suggest you listen to the head of state French Emmanuel Macron.

01:16It is a rethought, restored, enlarged Louvre, which becomes fully epicenter of the history

01:28of art for our country and beyond.

01:30It will first go through the creation of a new large entrance at the level of the colonnade

01:39of Perrault, vast and effective, which will allow to rebalance the way to visit the Louvre

01:48and to reopen it, to give it back to Parisians in its access.

01:52The creation of these new rooms under the Cour Carrée must allow to install the joconde

02:00in a private space, accessible in an autonomous way compared to the rest of the museum and

02:07equipped for this reason with a clean access title, but also with conditions that will allow

02:13both a different and perhaps more peaceful visit to the State Hall, but also conditions

02:21of exhibition, presentation, explanation, which will go with what the joconde deserves.

02:28And we stay in France to go to the discovery of the composer Olivier de Rivière,

02:34who won the Pegasus Prize in 2023 for his work.

02:37The French composer made a name for himself in the world of video games,

02:41in particular by signing the musics of Streets of Rage 4, Plague Tale, Innocence or Assassin's Creed 4

02:49with Gull Noir, the first feature film of Mathieu Turry.

02:53He made his first musical collaboration for cinema.

02:57Music was very early in the life of Olivier de Rivière.

03:02His personal journey begins in Nice, when his parents enrolled him at the conservatory at the age of five.

03:09Very quickly, his teachers gave him a sense of rhythm, and at the age of 12, he studied harmony, counterpoint, orchestration.

03:17And in fact, if Olivier de Rivière continues to develop his musical fibre,

03:21the young man is a real gamer rather than an orchestra or soloist conductor.

03:26He dreams of becoming an IT engineer.

03:29I suggest you listen to Olivier de Rivière. He is a composer.

03:35I am fascinated by video games. I think that video games are a medium that is beyond literature,

03:42which is really a gigantic artistic proposition due to the ease of production.

03:47That is, it is simply, I would say, paper and ink.

03:53Video games, in terms of artistic proposals, if we compare to cinema, if we compare to theatre,

03:57in terms of artistic proposals, it is gigantic.

03:59For video games, to compose is perhaps not even half the work, in the end,

04:05because video games have this specificity, which is that, as I said, it is something that happens in real time.

04:11That is to say, it is calculated in real time and according to the actions of the player.

04:16So that means that we have the ability to make while the action is taking place.

04:23Whereas in cinema, the film has been shot, has been edited, it is on a tape and it will never change.

04:29Everyone will experience exactly the same thing. In video games, this is not the case.

04:35Olivier de Rivière-Desmars, his professional life in the United States and back in Paris,

04:41he is looking for contacts in a video game industry that is still tiny in the Hexagon.

04:47However, his training as a musician coupled with his great knowledge of technology

04:53will very quickly make him stand out.

04:55A production company offers him to put their newborn in music, Obscure, and it was in 2004.

05:01And since then, the musician never ceases to travel in the infinite universes of video games,

05:06with the ambition of revealing, through his music, the complexity and the richness.

05:11Olivier de Rivière considers the appellation video game reductive.

05:15And if the notion of game is of course very important, he prefers to use the term experience,

05:20because his music is entirely at the service of this experience.

05:24The music of video games is no longer a prisoner of a hermetic environment

05:28where the computer adapts the sounds itself according to the outcome of a game.

05:33She got rid of her constraints by listening to Olivier de Rivière.

05:37I am a composer and music designer.

05:40So in fact, when I write music, I have the music design in mind.

05:44And I think it is also an asset to play video games.

05:47Because as I play video games, I understand the language of video games.

05:50And as I understand the language of video games, I can see what to do in music design

05:54and, as a composer, how to support music design with music.

05:59Sass of Midnight is my biggest musical production.

06:02It's more than a hundred recording sessions,

06:06mainly in Nashville, London for the orchestra, in La Bay Road,

06:10and in Paris for some musicians, whether French or American.

06:15And in fact, it's three halls like that that were created,

06:18where in fact, it's about, I don't know,

06:21at the end, I think there are about seven hours of music in the game.

06:24It's huge, it's really huge.

06:28Thank you, dear viewers, for your loyalty.
