The Acolyte Composer Michael Abels on composing for the Star Wars series
Michael Abels (Star Wars: The Acolyte, Nope) shares his experience scoring THE ACOLYTE at San Diego Comic-Con 2024.
What is the harmonic language of Star Wars? How did he score The Stranger? What moments in the series did he want to add a more operatic twist? This video contains relevant pieces from both the Musical Anatomy of a Superhero panel, moderated by Michael Giacchino, and a composer roundtable we attended after the panel. The full panel is available to watch here.
