The Clio Awards have recognized the power of music in storytelling, and this time, composer Germaine Franco takes center stage for her incredible work on For Mexico, For All Time: UFC 306!

Franco, known for her ability to blend rhythm, emotion, and culture, created a score that elevated the energy and impact of this groundbreaking live-action event. Her music became the heartbeat of the experience, resonating deeply with audiences. Franco is the first woman to present original music in the venue!

From her historic achievements as the first Latina to score a Disney animated film Encanto to her genre-spanning work in film, television, and immersive experiences, Franco continues to push boundaries. Her recognition at the Clio Awards is yet another testament to her artistry and ability to tell powerful stories through sound.

Whether it’s bringing animated worlds to life or intensifying the action of a high-stakes UFC event, Franco’s compositions leave a lasting mark. Franco sends her thanks to For Mexico, For All Time: UFC 306 director Carlos López Estrada, producer Valerie Bush, and UFC Chief Content Officer Craig Borsari for their support and collaboration on the project.
