The Los Angeles Live Score Film Festival features short films with original scores performed live-to-picture. The 2018 festival is presented by Helix Collective in collaboration with the Academy of Scoring Arts. Films for the 2018 festival are curated by the faculty at the New York Film Academy – Los Angeles, the L.A. Film School and Columbia College, Hollywood.
6:00pm Composer and Filmmaker Panel
7:30pm Screening
9:00pm Reception
Selected film composers are paired with a winning filmmaker to create an original score for the festival. The film is screened with the score performed live by the renowned performance and recording ensemble, Helix Collective. The screening includes an interview with the filmmakers and composers with host Brian Ralston, co-host of the SCOREcast podcast. Awards for Best Picture and Best Musical Score are presented at the close of the festival.

Now in its fifth season, LALSFF’s goal is to highlight the role of collaboration between composers and filmmakers. Acting like a talent agent, the festival brings experts in the two disciplines together. At the screenings, filmmakers and composers hear and see the work of new colleagues, meet new collaborators, and establish working relationships with each other. Helix Collective proves that it is possible to get talented, experienced film musicians to play and record for independent films!

This year's festival includes 8 ASCAP-licensed composers:

Marco Valerio Antonini (an ASCAP Film Scoring Workshop with Richard Bellis alumnus!)
Nathalie Bonin
Shaun Chasin
Erik Desiderio
Drum & Lace
Jonathan Keith (an ASCAP Film Scoring Workshop with Richard Bellis alumnus!)
