Michael Giacchino : (6) " My dad gave me his camera, so I spent my childhood making movies with the kids in the neighborhood as actors. " - Michael Giacchino " When I was growing up, every show had live music. Now, almost none have live music. Probably 97 percent of the shows on television are probably synthesized, or mostly synthesized, and that’s a shame. " - Michael Giacchino " I even went to film school at School of Visual Arts in New York City. And then, after that, I got a day job at Universal publicity department, then moved over to Disney publicity department. So I had this day job, and at night I would study music. " - Michael Giacchino " I grew up listening to ‘Planet of the Apes’ and other scores, and it was fun for me because you weren’t just listening to those scores, but you were also questioning what you were listening to. What are those sounds? " - Michael Giacchino " I loved ‘Planet of the Apes,’ and I loved ‘Star Wars,’ and I loved ‘Raiders of the Lost Ark,’ and to me, the goal always was to work on something as cool as that. " - Michael Giacchino " I grew up with so many different sounds, and ‘Lost’ allows me to express all of it, the melodic and the atonal. " - Michael Giacchino
