Film composition and orchestration
Scoring the moments that move you, orchestrating emotions that resonate.
BACKGROUND
As mentioned earlier in my portfolio, In 2024, I had an opportunity to study under the mentorship of David Shipps in Nashville, TN. Along with David, I also had the opportunity to study Kris Crunk who taught me how to work with MIDI Programming and scoring. With their guidance, I gained a solid education and experience in orchestrating and film composition, further expanding my palette of what I can offer. I can not only write your score, but orchestrate it as well. Feel free to check out some cues I worked on while on my internship!

Internship Project m01 “Snow Speeder Chase”
-
For my final project during my Fall 2024 internship, I was tasked with scoring a scene, and I chose a deleted scene from Star Wars: The Force Awakens. I selected this particular scene because, let's face it, who wouldn’t jump at the chance to work on a thrilling chase sequence? In this project, I took on multiple roles, including composer, orchestrator, programmer, and part preparation. It was an incredible opportunity to immerse myself in every aspect of the scoring process.
ACR m01 “Opening Cutscene”
-
This project was a self-initiated challenge that I designed as a fun and dynamic exercise. I wanted to score an action-packed video game cutscene that was fast-paced and high-energy. I chose a scene from one of my favorite games and decided to dive in. Similar to my Internship Project, I took on multiple roles, including composer, orchestrator, and programmer. It provided another opportunity to hone my skills and foster my growth as both a composer and orchestrator.
