Al Nelson

After graduating with a degree in music composition and film music studies from Florida State University, Al Nelson moved to Northern California to pursue a career in “New Media”. A job in film straight out of college seemed far-fetched , however, shortly after his arrival to San Francisco, Al was holding the original source recordings for Star Wars and working amongst legends of sound design. This unexpected journey has taken him from machine rooms and mag to aircraft carriers and wild animal preserves.

Almost 30 years into his career at Skywalker, Al has been fortunate to work with some of the best talent in the film industry and with some of the best filmmakers of our time.
