The Process with filmUSiC - USC Thornton

The founders behind the 2022 live-to-picture concert, “filmUSiC,” are USC Thornton Composition major Anya Lagman (’23) and Cello Performance major Quenton Blache (’23). Lagman and Blache brought an ambitious idea to life with the help of their peers at Thornton and the School of Cinematic Arts.
For the concert, composers from Thornton’s Composition program created original scores to accompany short films by animators from the School of Cinematic Arts. While the films rolled onscreen, musicians from Thornton’s Orchestras Program performed the scores live, immersing audience members in the worlds of the films.
