Moderated by Jon Burlingame, Professor of Film-Music History at USC
Grammy Award-winning and Oscar-nominated composer Michael Giacchino–who wrote the score for The Incredibles and Ratatouille–has been mesmerized by movie music since he first saw (and heard) Star Wars as a child. His fascination led him to study film production at the School of Visual Arts in New York and composition at Julliard. Giacchino visits Zócalo to explain how his childhood obsession became reality, what it’s really like to be a musician in Hollywood, and how composers help create such memorable scenes.
