School of Music

Kubilay Uner will be giving a lecture on film scoring. He makes adventurous, eclectic, colorful music for media ranging from film and television to concerts and records. He blends acoustic, synthetic and found sounds, builds his own instruments, bends tempos, layers noise, mixes metaphors, and is generally convinced that good music only happens when you mix things up.

Credits include his SCL-Award-nominated score for the Al Pacino historical drama “American Traitor: The Trial of Axis Sally”; the 90s throwback action film “Force of Nature” starring Mel Gibson; the Lionsgate Western "Gone Are the Days" starring Lance Henriksen, Tom Berenger and Danny Trejo; as well as "Big Sur", based on Jack Kerouac's novel; plus a genuine Wyld Stallyns track for Bill & Ted Face the Music, record productions for soul legend Bobby Womack, music for Busch Gardens theme park ride "Corkscrew Hill", and music for a video art installation in the permanent collection of the Los Angeles County Museum of Art (LACMA).
