When a composer works with an orchestrator, he or she needs to be able to trust that the orchestrator will listen closely to the composer's intentions, implement them effectively, and make intelligent artistic choices where the orchestrator is given creative freedom.
For a "solitary" job, this role is all about understanding and working well with others. Freelance orchestrators set their own schedules but must always answer to project deadlines, which are often pressing. Most work out of home offices or studios. A small number of orchestrators are employed by music production houses, in which case they may have a physical office space and official hours. Don't see what you're looking for? Main Site Berklee.

I will say he doesn't really strike me as a particularly outstanding film composer considering how popular he is. Looking through his filmography he has worked on a few films I've seen that I thought had pretty good music, like Black Rain, Crimson Tide and, oddly enough, Toys but he hasn't got an ultra distinct style like Elfman, Morricone, Williams or even Vangelis.
Actually Morricone has changed slightly over the years to me, but his post 's output has a distinct flavour about it. Dec, 3. It's from Angels and Demons. I was afraid that this might be seen as Zimmer bashing. I'm really just wondering about composers getting credit and awards when they don't seem to do a lot of the work.

Dec, 5. Good question. To add to that, are there any living film composers who compose, orchestrate and conduct all their scores? John Williams may be one at least for the most part. Dec, 6. Dec, 7.

Although orchestration is a useful skill for any composer , composer's assistant , arranger , or bandleader , in the film and TV industries it stands as its own career path.
Film and TV orchestrators face unique challenges arising from the conventions of these industries, and must develop a distinct skill set in response. Although traditional music notation is still the primary language used by instrumental performers, film and TV composers have come to prefer the ease of MIDI notation. An orchestrator typically receives two things from a composer: a MIDI score and a synthesizer recording that demonstrates how it's meant to sound. Using these two resources—along with advanced listening, transcription, and problem-solving skills—the orchestrator must figure out exactly what the composer is going for musically, and how best to achieve this with the language of music notation.
