Film Music Production and Composition
Wolf broke into the film industry when he co-wrote and produced several songs (including the title song) for Rodney Dangerfield's film, Back to School, in 1985. After that project, Wolf wrote and produced music for several more major film projects including The Karate Kid, Part II and Madonna's Who's That Girl. Wolf's work on Scooby-Doo and the Cyber Chase marked his entry into composing for animated stories. The film-makers wanted to move Scooby Doo into the new century, which Wolf fully embraced. Wolf's other film credits include Strictly Business, starring Halle Berry and débuting Mary J. Blige; Three Kings, where Wolf worked with director David O. Russell and actor Mark Wahlberg; and the Harrison Ford drama Presumed Innocent.
