How Far Can a Punk Get?

My latest project is a short comedy film directed by Riley Carr about a Punk band struggling to get their music heard, as well as the main character's struggle with addiction.

​

I composed the music for this film in the summer of 2024 alongside composer James Light, and had fun exploring the Punk Rock genre, which I had not previously worked in.

Below is an extract form the start of the film.

For this soundtrack I made use of a full orchestra, as well as synthesisers and found sounds to reflect the otherworldly nature of the crystal and its magical guardians.

I started working on the soundtrack in 2023, and the film was finally released in 2025 after going through the festival circuit and picking up a few awards along the way.

​

The director asked for action music that conveys the dog's sense of panic. I was also asked to incorporate Vietnamese instruments as the animation is set in Vietnam.​​

Dawn's End

This Japanese-style animation by V3ctor Animations features a team of magic-wielding adventurers exploring a medieval fantasy land.

​

My intention was to create a theme for each character, using a celesta to represent Luna's gentle nature; a solo french horn to capture Warhammer's mighty valour; a choir to emulate Vivienne's healing magic; and synths, electric guitar, and staccato strings to reflect Fulgora's wild, maverick spirit.
