The Rough Cut

Hans Zimmer

When it comes to legendary composer Hans Zimmer, you let the music do the talking.  But the numbers don’t lie either.

200+ projects scored across all mediums.  28 billion dollars in combined box office gross from those projects.  One Academy Award®. Two Golden Globes®. Three Grammys®.  One American Music Award. One Tony® Award.  He’s an Emmy® away from being an EGOT and I like his chances!

In our talk Hans discusses many, many things including; how he approaches the art and craft of film composing under the restrictions of remote collaboration, the musicality and courage of editor Joe Walker, Ramin Djawadi’s ascension from coffee go-fer to go-to composer, Pietro Scalia’s “measured” editing and amazing cooking, why director Christopher Nolan is no good at parties, plus what studios really want from you!
