Joe Kraemer (born 1971) is an American composer. His film scores include ''The Way of the Gun'' (2000), ''Joy Ride 2: Dead Ahead'' (2008), and ''Jack Reacher'' (2012), as well as ''Mission: Impossible – Rogue Nation'' (2015). ==Biography== Kraemer was born in Buffalo, New York and raised in Albany, New York. His father and uncle were both musicians, and Kraemer began taking piano lessons at an early age. In high school he befriended an older boy named Scott Storm, who became a professional filmmaker. Kraemer's first film score was for a Super-8 film written and directed by Storm, called ''Chiming Hour''. Kraemer, who also acted in the film, was 15 at the time.〔(Interview with Joe Kraemer )〕 Storm later introduced Kraemer to filmmakers Bryan Singer and Christopher McQuarrie.〔(Interview with Joe Kraemer )〕〔(Joe Kraemer biography ) Internet Movie Database〕 While attending Berklee School of Music in Boston, Kraemer decided he wanted to be a film composer. Through contacts such as Singer and McQuarrie, he was able to obtain work first as a sound (and occasionally music) editor, before eventually crossing over into television and film composing.〔(), Interview with Joe Kraemer〕 Kraemer's first feature film score was the 2000 film ''The Way of the Gun'', a modern-day western written and directed by Oscar-winner Christopher McQuarrie. The film starred Benicio del Toro, Ryan Phillippe, and James Caan. Though the film performed poorly at the box office, it became something of a cult classic, and some industry insiders began to expect great things from Kraemer. Over the next few years, however, Kraemer's career languished in obscurity: in 2003 he scored the little-known docudrama ''Emerald Cowboy''; in 2006 he teamed up with his old classmate Scott Storm for the low-budget crime thriller ''Ten 'til Noon'', which won awards at the film festival level; and in 2008 he scored the direct-to-video thriller ''Joy Ride 2: Dead Ahead'', written by J. J. Abrams. In 2012, Kraemer got his chance, composing the score for the Tom Cruise action thriller ''Jack Reacher''. Directed by McQuarrie, the film grossed more than $200 million worldwide, making it by far the most high-profile project in Kraemer's portfolio. His score was nominated in the Best Original Score - Feature Film category at the 2012 Hollywood Music In Media Awards. On the strength of this success, Kraemer was hired to score the fifth film in Cruise's mega-successful ''Mission: Impossible'' franchise, ''Mission: Impossible – Rogue Nation'' (2015).〔(Joe Kraemer to Score 'Mission: Impossible 5 ) Film Music Reporter.〕 In addition to his recent work on ''Mission: Impossible – Rogue Nation'', Kraemer also composes the music for the hit Cinemax series, ''Femme Fatales''. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Joe Kraemer (composer)」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
