Crew Call 3:05 - Carlos Rafael Rivera
This conversation with composer Carlos Rafael Rivera might be my favorite conversation yet from either the podcast or our Filmcraft Series.
Carlos is not only hilarious but an incredible teacher and this conversation exemplifies his incredible talent and generosity. It is no wonder he leads the Media Scoring & Production Faculty at the University of Miami in addition to winning numerous Emmy’s and Grammy’s for his own scores.
But what really makes this conversation unique is that composing for Film and TV is like the third or fourth act in Carlos’s career. We spend so much time admiring those who figure it our early on and are the youngest to do a thing. That’s all well and good and to be admired but I take so much more from the story of someone who kept at it as life threw curve balls.
If you aren’t were you want to be in your career, if you want to know more about the act of composing, if you want to understand how composers work with directors and producers this treasure of a conversation is for you.
The conversation is moderated our very own board member and filmmaker Isabel Custer who did an incredible amount of research and pulled a ton of Carlo’s videos and lessons from the internet so we could have real examples of the music in this conversation. Thank you to Carlos not only for the incredible conversation but for allowing us to include samples of his work for our conversation.
I hope you all enjoy it as much as I did!
