The incredibly versatile Henry Jackman joins Film.Music.Media for the 4th time, this time to discuss his newest score to Big Hero 6.

Henry discusses the dual nature his theme had to carry; being big and heroic in some parts yet poignant and emotional in others. We also reflect on Henry's career in animation from scoring Monsters Vs. Aliens up till now. We also touch briefly upon his upcoming score to The Interview and his projects in the future. Another fascinating interview with one of the best composers working today.
