MUSIC
Dear Listener, Our craft is so visual and each film, too unique to anticipate a perfect musical compliment before actually watching edited picture but please enjoy this selection of music from previous movies I’ve worked on. These pieces center around emotions of loneliness, grief, loss, helplessness and confusion – feelings that accompany the journey of our protagonist, but if there’s more you’d like to hear, please let me know. I’d love to explore further with you.
