I talk industry professionals who, on a daily basis, work with music and visuals. I’m talking about composers but I’m also talking about the editors, music supervisors, directors and anyone else who’s involved with the synchronous process of pairing of audio and visuals.
My mission is to get under the skin of their recent projects, understand their relationship to these magical media and glean insights into what makes them tick and what makes them great at what they do.
