What I Speak About

The Stories We Tell Ourselves Matter

After thirty years shaping the emotional journey for audiences in film and television, Micha discovered that the same principles apply off-screen. The stories we tell ourselves are just as powerful as the stories we tell the audience. They shape our emotions, our decisions, and ultimately our lives. In this talk, Micha draws on his Emmy-winning career to explore how we can become better editors of our own narratives.

The Artist and The Engineer

We grow up being told we're either a creative person or a technical one. Micha spent thirty years in Hollywood proving that's a lie. Drawing on stories from Emmy-winning productions, high-pressure deadlines, and the moments where technology nearly killed the art (and where art demanded better technology), this talk explores what happens when you stop choosing between the artist and the engineer and start using both. It's a talk about creativity, reinvention, and the surprising power of refusing to pick a lane.

Behind the Score

How does music actually get made for film and television? This keynote demystifies the real process, from the first creative conversations to the final broadcast-ready soundtrack. Drawing on decades of experience as a four-time Emmy-nominated music editor, Micha takes the audience behind the scenes of how directors, composers, editors, and post-production teams bring music from concept to completion. Designed for professionals and non-experts alike, this talk reveals how great music doesn't happen by accident.
