The Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences has invited 178 new artists and executives who have distinguished themselves by their contributions to theatrical motion pictures to join the organization. Among the invited artists are two film composers (Terence Blanchard, Graeme Revell) and one music editor (Fernand Bos). Terence Blanchard has been working in the film music industry for more than 20 years. He is best known for his collaborations with Spike Lee, including his music for the Oscar-nominated drama Malcom X, the 2006 hit thriller Inside Man and the drama The 25th Hour, for which the composer has received a Golden Globe nomination. Blanchard has recently recorded his score for the George Lucas-produced drama Red Tails, which is rumored to be released in early 2012. Graeme Revell has been scoring films since the late 80’s. Some of his best known credits include The Crow, The Negotiator, The Siege, Pitch Black, Lara Croft: Tom Raider, Daredevil and Pineapple Express.
