About this episode
Matt Sullivan has one of the most unique jobs in film music. He's a musical supervisor, but he prefers the term musical director, more similar to theater. He cut his teeth on musical-oriented films, overseeing the storyboards, early edits, and even vocal coaching for actors, as well as live recordings on set. For West Side Story, he worked directly with Steven Spielberg and composer David Newman for more than a year. What does the future of film music hold? Matt Sullivan is one of the best people to answer just that!
