Composer Michael Giacchino on the Challenge of Scoring New Star Trek Movie

Features

By GustavoLeao / 09:48, 31 January 2008 / Star Trek: Nemesis

The Los Angeles Times posted an interview with composer Michael Giacchino, in which he talks about his upcoming musical scores for Speed Racer and the new Star Trek movie prequel. Here are excerpts from the article.

Giacchino has worked closely with Star Trek director J.J. Abrams through the years, following him from "Alias" to "Lost" and "Cloverfield," for which he wrote the end-credits "ROAR!"


"They're still shooting 'Star Trek,' so ‘Speed Racer' fit into the waiting area in which I would have been tinkering around with ideas for it," he says. "I'll start on that in April. What I am thinking about is how so much amazing music has been written for the series, whether it be for the show or TV or the later shows. There's so much stuff there that I love, so to have to put something into that world is very daunting."


"In the same way that J.J. took the story and is re-inventing what it is, this is a chance to create something new, thematically, so I am excited about that challenge," he says. "But I want it to feel like it deserves to sit up on the shelf with the other ones."

The full interview is here.

Sarcasm detectors teh pwn.

There once was a man named Scorned,
whose posts were more offensive than porn.
He posted one too many,
got kicked out on his fanny,
and all the while he had been warned.
