Steve hangs out on the front porch of the hippest crib in the village with rising film composer Julia Zuzanna Sokolowska for a wide-ranging conversation covering everything from Julia’s music and creative process to balancing family life and career-building in Los Angeles.

The discussion dives deep into the realities of modern film composition, networking, jazz education, demos, editing, and forging a sustainable artistic path in the highly competitive — but incredibly exciting — world of writing for film and media.

This is a must-listen episode for composers, musicians, film-score fans, and especially anyone hoping to build a career in composition for Hollywood, television, games, or multimedia. Click this link to see the video version where you can also see the film clips:
