Michael Giacchino

Michael Giacchino

In 1997, Michael Giacchino was approached by DreamWorks Studios to score their flagship PlayStation video game based on Stephen Spielberg's box office hit, The Lost World. It became the first original live orchestral score written for PlayStation. Michael went on to compose many orchestral scores for DreamWorks Interactive, including Spielberg's Word War II simulation game series, Medal of Honor. His work on such high-profile games kicked the door wide-open for him in Hollywood and he soon landed some prime gigs, first working on the ABC hit TV show Alias and then on ABC's 2004 hit Lost. Michael's biggest success to date, however, is his music for Pixar's new animated hit film, The Incredibles. Next up in 2005: his score for The Muppets Wizard of Oz and Sky High.
