The panel of Hollywood music composers introduces themselves, ranging from movie veterans to a blackballed commercial writer and Hans Zimmer's 14-year-old son.
"My name is Karl-Heinz Stott. I am a movie composer."
"I'm Trisha Johnson, and I am a music composer for commercials. Or at least I was, I've been blackballed."
"I'm Diego Zimmer, Hans Zimmer's son. Excited to be here."
Trisha explains how she was blackballed after accidentally uploading Pharrell's 'Happy' to a SeaWorld commercial folder while recovering from Burning Man.
"One of them said Happy Whale and the other said Happy by Pharrell."
"I accidentally dragged Happy by Pharrell into the Google Drive and now everybody thinks I'm a cheater."
Diego Zimmer claims he wrote the bridge to Pirates of the Caribbean when his father, Hans Zimmer, stepped away to use the restroom. He demonstrates his percussive composition style.
"My daddy's like the godfather of this business. Hate to say that, but I mean you are all giants under him."
"I hear strings as drums, I hear flutes as drums. I love drums."
Trisha Johnson's Blacklist and the WAP/MeUndies Confusion
Trisha reveals she was blackballed after accidentally mixing up a MeUndies jingle with an early copy of Cardi B's 'WAP' while composing drunk, leading to a career-ending copyright disaster.
"I miss the cocaine. I miss booking, but I miss cocaine more."
"Cardi B sent me a really early copy and she was like, keep this file safe. Don't do anything with this file."
Diego Zimmer describes his process of 'picking up where his father left off,' specifically writing the bridge to Pirates of the Caribbean while Hans Zimmer was taking a bathroom break.
"He went to the bathroom, he left off, and I picked up where he left off and I wrote that bridge."
Diego presents an original composition for a Paul Thomas Anderson film. While the other composers interpret his drawing as a 'spotty dog,' he reveals it is actually about the 2008 stock market crash.
Trisha explains her downfall in the commercial industry, including a disastrous SeaWorld ad where she accidentally submitted Pharrell's 'Happy' instead of her original 'Happy Whale' track.
