A work in constant progress (and occasional regress).
Navid Hejazi is a music composer and violinist born in Madrid, Spain. He has scored movies, TV shows, commercials and video games from the US, Europe, Japan, China and South America. His score for 'Juan in a Million' ('The Silent Earth') got him a winning award for best music at Festival de Cine Villa del Mar 2013, Chile's national film festival. His score for 'The Second Coming Of Christ' was original score contender for the Oscars 2018. He has worked on movies such as 'The Signal', 'Crypto' and 20th Century Fox 'The Pyramid'. His solo violin can also be heard in video games such as PS4 'Detroit: Become Human' and Xbox 360 'Resident Evil 2: Revelations'. Fourth generation musician, Navid started playing violin at the age of 5. During his childhood he fell in love with movies and at the age of 15 started composing music. After graduating from Madrid Royal Conservatory he went to Berklee College of Music in Boston where he majored in Film Scoring and Composition. After this he interned at Remote Control Productions in Los Angeles. In the US Navid Hejazi is part of Zoo Creatives, a film music and post production studio run by composer Nima Fakhrara.

Most data and links to images for the Movies section come from TheMovieDB (TMDB).
Additional data for Film Titles come from The Open Movie Database (OMDb).
At least one plug-in comes from IMDb.
Data are -- hey, it's a plural -- subject to the limitations of their sources. (For example, TMDB search results currently max out at 20.) I am limiting myself to free data sources for now. (No, a "free trial" is not free.)
While much of the above data are retrieved directly from outside APIs and other such sources, data from American Film Institute (AFI) and British Film Institute (BFI) were manually entered the old fashioned way into a MySQL database. Re BFI I took the following liberties:
Regarding profile removals and data corrections:
Filtering is applied here to film projects flagged as "adult" by TheMovieDB. Pending "popular demand" I am contemplating a login and profile system with preferences (such as whether to allow adult images to appear) and permissions (such as data entry).
Whereas the overall purpose of this website is to serve as a personal demo/portfolio/workshop of web and data skills, this Movies section is not meant to compete with or substitute for far more definitive movie websites.
Whether or not he still clings to an award which he won in 1986 as a film critic for his college's newspaper, Jeffrey Hartmann is not responsible for the texts of overviews and biographies supplied by external data sources.
