Inside Hans Zimmer’s Studio

Music technologist and author Peter Gorges shared a photo of the absolutely amazing studio of Hans Zimmer.

Not only is the studio a cathedral for music, but, if you look closely, you’ll see that one wall is a giant modular synthesizer.

“It takes HDR to capture this room – conventional camera sensors fail miserably. The whole room is just dark, light-absorbing surfaces (velvet, wood) and a few pointed light sources. There’s no way to just ‘take a photo of it’,” notes Gorges.

Hans Florian Zimmer is a German film composer and music producer. He has composed music for over 100 films, including award winning film scores for The Lion King, Crimson Tide, Gladiator, The Last Samurai, The Dark Knight and Inception.
