Emmy Award-winning composer Geoff Zanelli graduated from Berklee college after majoring in Film Scoring and Music Production. A subsequent meeting with German composer Hans Zimmer in 1994 led to Zanelli's appointment on Zimmer's musical staff as an engineer working on the Academy Award-nominated score for 'The Preacher's Wife' giving the composer his first taste of success. Zanelli has a reputation in the film and TV industry as a composer with a prodigious musical output. In 2007, immediately after completing his work on the score for Steven Spielberg's TV series 'Into the West' (for which Zanelli won the Outstanding Musical Composition Emmy) he composed the soundtracks for the movies 'Disturbia', 'Hitman', 'Outlander', 'Delgo','Ghost Town' and 'Gamer', a phenomenal amount of scoring to complete in a single year. In 2010 he received another Emmy nomination for his work on the HBO series 'The Pacific'. In recent years Zanelli's work has featured in the popular 'Pirates of the Caribean' film franchise when he worked on the 2011 release 'On Stranger Tides' and more recently on the 2017 'Dead Men Tell No Tales' aka 'Salazar's Revenge'.
