OBLIVION began its journey to the big screen as an 8-page film treatment in April 2005.
I had just moved to Los Angeles and had no luck finding any work in the commercial/ music
video business. To keep myself from going insane, I poured my creative energy into a
story about drone repairman Jack Harper – the last man on Earth. I had been listening to
a song called “Unrecorded” by a relatively unknown French electronic artist and for some
reason it stuck with me. In the margin of that first draft, I scribbled down a musical idea
for a film that would most likely never get made – M83.

Now eight years later, not only has that idea for a film become a reality (starring arguably
the biggest movie star of our time), but that unknown artist has become a Grammy-
nominated, very well-known artist. Anthony creates music that is aspirational, emotional and
uniquely his own. I teamed him with Joe Trapanese, who I worked with on my first film
and another phenomenal talent. Together they have created a score that I have dreamed
about since I first put this story down on paper. I am thrilled to share it with you.
