Digital Performer is widely used by composers who write for many forms of media, including film, television, games, internet properties, and even theme parks. Michael Giacchino could be considered a master of them all, with many scoring achievements to his credit in all of these genres. The crowning achievement for his career, however, came just two days ago at the 2010 Academy Awards, where he won the Oscar for Best Music (Original Score) for the animated Disney/Pixar film Up, which also won the Academy Award for Best Animated Feature Film. This marks two Oscar wins in the past three years for a film composer who uses Digital Performer as their primary software.
