From the title sequence to the end credits, and everything in between, composers have an indelible impact on the emotional lens through which we view a story. How do you create a sound that captures the essence of a character, or elevates an already-great scrip to the next level? In this conversation, go behind the score with some of TV's most dynamic composer/creator pairs as they discuss how the two roles come together to shape a characters story, and how a show's themes can deepen our connection to the characters we love.

Episode Guests: Marshall Herskovitz (thirtysomething), Tanya Saracho (Vida), Joe Weisberg (The Americans), Joel Fields (The Americans), W.G. Snuffy Walden (Friday Night Lights), Germaine Franco (Vida), Nathan Barr (The Americans)

Moderator: Tara Ariano (Previously.TV)
