The first step in composing is brainstorming with the director and discussing in lenght what style of music would be interesting to explore. Capturing the vision of the director and the story at hand is the next step where I go out to my studio and develop tunes and sounds to present on the next meeting. From here on it's a close collaboration working up and down to define the music. When the picture is locked I start to use some of these elements and start to lay out the large arc of ideas needed to tell this story through music.

As a composer, my work process revolves around a blend of creativity, strategy, and technical proficiency. It begins with a thorough understanding of the project's goals, narrative, and emotional tone. Research plays a crucial role, as I delve into the film's themes, character arcs, and musical inspirations to inform my approach.
