Fire can burn people but it can shine on them too.I write mainly classical music and film scores with many types of orchestration.Currently composing for a film Beyond the Myst: The Lost Years Of King Arthur alongside with Edifice Of Echoes

My Background: I am a composer for both film and classical music. I am currently studying music and I began Composing a little over a year and a half ago I wrote my first film score in January of 2017 and I fell in love with the process. Creating a world and telling a story with music

How I work: I begin working by sketching out in pencil and paper,chipping away at it day by day, and once I'm done with the sketch I orchestrated in ink on a larger score and then input it into the electronics like Cubase and finale.On a film project I like to work very closely with a director to make sure what I have written is what the director had envisioned.

    I know Daniel for a while now. We are working on the 'Beyond the Myst' film together. He knows how to get the right emotion into the scene AND the right instrument. I have never worked with anyone as talented as he is in this field.
