Exploring Musical Landscapes

COMPOSER

Composing has now become my #1 musical activity, a logical way for me to get back to basics that suits my current artistic endeavors and aspirations.

As a composer I am proud to have won 2 awards in International Film Festivals, which, even in today's very formatted musical environment, makes me feel more energized and motivated to do more and try harder, developping my compositional skills with every new project I take on.



MUSIC FOR FILM

Composing for feature films or for television gives me just enough freedom/space to feel good and enthusiastic about sitting down in front of my computer displays or with a guitar on my knee to start a day's work.

LIBRARY MUSIC

It's rewarding to have had several placements worldwide for television series, trailers or TV commercials, in a variety of styles that reflect the wide range of my influences.

VIDEO GAMES & MULTIMEDIA

Composing for video games is slightly different from film scoring mainly because you must become a member of the creative team, much more so than when writing for a movie.
