Zach Robinson

Composer

Primetime Emmy winner · 1 other major award body

Zach Robinson is an LA based composer, arranger, music producer, and electronic musician. After receiving his degree in music composition from Northwestern University, Zach worked closely as a collaborator with film composer Christophe Beck, writing additional music for feature films such as Frozen, Edge of Tomorrow, Ant-Man, Sisters, and The Peanuts Movie. In 2016, Zach co-composed and oversaw all music production of YouTube’s first developed sitcom, “Sing It!” created by YouTube superstars, The Fine Brothers. He also composed the music for the Fine's first feature film, F!@# The Prom, and the score for USA's "NFL Football Fanatic." Zach's passion lies in the fantastic. He is a mega-fan of classic B-film horror, space epics, lounge exotica, smokey noir, buddy cop movies, and 1980's retro-futures. Since 2009, Zach has created 1980's inspired electronic music under the pseudonym D/A/D (DEE-AY-DEE). His most recent album The Construct (2013) was named one of the best cassette releases of 2013 by NPR and received critical acclaim from numerous online publications including Pitchfork, Ad Hoc, and FACT Magazine.

Percentiles are each film's standing among all films on MovieCove; the typical film is the median, so one outlier cannot drag it. Percentiles and reviewer scores count the films IMDb credits them on, for now; the Midcredits score bands, the shape of the crowd and the two cards count their MovieCove titles, shows included (a show ranked among shows), appearances as themselves left out. A descriptor is the shape of a title's IMDb rating distribution against the catalog; "most divisive" needs a spread wider than half of all titles, and a card names only a principal credit: a craft role, and on a show a crew role or a run of episodes, never a courtesy credit or a one-off guest spot.
