Q: If you would have been given the chance to do a film score, what movie would you choose and why?
Len Vitz: I would choose Back to the Future for its innovative use of technology and special effects, providing a platform to unleash creativity and experiment with new sounds.

This choice stems from the fact that it is an action, dynamic and propulsive film that infuses a lot of energy into the viewer by involving him and immersing him quite naturally within the film and the story it is meant to tell. The latter feeling that, through my music, I always try to convey to all who listen to it.
