Narrative Composer

Music that shapes story, tone, and emotional intent

For films and story-led moments within larger experiences

I compose music for narrative-driven projects where clarity of emotion, pacing, and tone matter as much as the notes themselves.

My work focuses on story-led composition — music that supports character, structure, and meaning — whether for films, documentaries, or opening and brand films that serve as narrative anchors within experiential and live projects.

The aim is always the same: music that earns trust, guides emotion, and leaves space for the story to breathe.

Who This Is For

I work with:

  • Directors and producers

  • Creative directors and agencies

  • Editors and post-production teams

Particularly on projects where music needs to:

  • Support narrative without overstating it

  • Replace or move beyond temp scores

  • Establish a clear emotional language early

What I Do

Narrative Music Composition

I compose original scores for films and story-led content, shaping music around structure, pacing, and emotional arc rather than surface style.

Opening & Brand Film Music

For experiential and live projects, I often compose music for opening or brand films that establish the emotional tone and sonic identity of the wider experience.

Thematic Development

I develop musical themes that can evolve across a project — from linear film into live, spatial, or interactive contexts — maintaining continuity and coherence.

Editorial Collaboration

I work closely with editors and directors, responding to picture, rhythm, and narrative intent to ensure the music supports storytelling rather than competing with it.

How I Work

Narrative music works best when it’s considered early.

I focus on understanding the story, its emotional priorities, and the role music should play — where it leads, where it supports, and where silence is more effective. This approach helps avoid over-scoring and reduces reliance on temp music as a creative crutch.

Where projects extend beyond film into live or experiential formats, I ensure the musical language remains consistent while adapting appropriately to context.

Why Clients Bring Me In

Clients often involve me when they need:

  • Music that understands story, not just style

  • A calm, collaborative presence in post-production

  • Clear emotional direction without excess

  • Continuity between film and wider experiential elements

With experience across film, live events, and immersive projects, I help teams make confident narrative decisions while keeping the music focused and purposeful.

Case Study

Let’s Talk

If you’re developing a narrative-led project — or a larger experience that begins with a story-driven film — I’m always happy to discuss how music can support the work.
