However, it also challenging and demanding, and doing it effectively requires an understanding of several key components which I

With many years of experience in writing music for various visual mediums, I can provide tuition to those starting out, or help enhance the skills of those who have been composing for a while but want to specialize in syncing their music to the moving image.

My classes will focus on the following scoring techniques:

- technical aspects of composing to picture on a computer
- understanding a brief
- analyzing a scene
- identifying and conveying the correct emotion
- writing in different styles and genres

I will also touch upon several key business aspects, including:

- getting started in the industry
- working with clients
- how to deliver your music
- negotiating budgets

This is not an exhaustive list, as I will cover many more aspects in my classes.

Über mich
I am an award-winning composer who can write in a wide range of musical styles and genres across differing visual mediums. I have written music for numerous short films, for commercial use and for several stock licensing agencies. I also compose, produce, mix and master all my own music.

I am a guitarist, but I also own and play various other acoustic instruments, mainly to capture realism and authenticity in my music. As a sound designer as well, I blend non-traditional instruments with found sounds and electronics to achieve a unique tone and voice.

I am also a published composer with UK based publisher, EditionDB, who hold the scores to some of my concert music.
Bildung
I have completed a BA in Music Composition degree at the University of West London.

I have since completed a MA in Professional Media Composition with ThinkSpace Education.
Erfahrung / Qualifikationen
I have taught music composition for film for several years to multiple age groups.

I also teach guitar to beginner/intermediate level.

My method is ... LEARN BY MAKING YOUR MUSIC!

The student will learn techniques, stylistic elements, tricks ... already by working on his first tracks: to keep motivation and satisfaction high, the result is always visible!
The lessons are face-to-face and personalised according to the level of experience and the musical style of the student. The presentation of the information is clear and accompanied by practical examples.

I'll show you how to:
- use Ableton Live,
- program and control synthesizers and virtual instruments,
- use microphone and sound card to record your voice and your instruments,
- process sound with effects (plugins) and optimize it for diffusion (mixing and mastering),
- make your songs, from start to the last details.

I also speak Spanish, French, German and Italian.

This is a class intended for anyone looking to improve their musicianship and keyboard skills. Whether you're interested in playing classical music or popular tunes this class is meant to give you the technical guidance and musical knowledge required to achieve your goals.
The curriculum will be tailored to match the student's level and interests, with the possibility to focus more on performance, composition or theory. We will cover practice tips and students will get to pick their repertoire or bring forward pieces they'd like to work on.
