I’m a French composer specializing in music for film and visual media. Born in 1997 in Fontainebleau, I first studied violin and piano before turning to composition. After training at the conservatories of Reims, Saint-Maur, and Argenteuil, I graduated in 2024 from the National Conservatory of Music and Dance of Lyon (CNSMD) with a degree in Film Scoring. My work includes the original scores for The Secret Life of the Andean Bear (2020) and Four Seasons with the Pandas (2022), both directed by Philippe Molins, as well as The Last Territory of the Lynx (Ecotalk). Since 2021, I’ve been collaborating closely with composer Fabien Cali on projects such as It Was the Algerian War (France 2), The Picasso Affair, and In the Footsteps of Clement VI by Roland Théron. I also work with emerging filmmakers on short films and documentaries, exploring a wide range of styles and sound worlds. My approach focuses on storytelling through music—creating emotionally resonant and tailored soundtracks that bring each image to life.…

    paper The Last Territory of the Lynx

    The lynx is critically endangered in France. If nothing changes, it could disappear within the next 100 years. We went out into the field to meet those fighting for its survival and those lucky enough to encounter it in its natural habitat. We wanted to understand why this iconic animal is at risk—and to discover how we can act before it’s too late.
    This is a documentary by Ecotalk, for which I composed an orchestral score that accompanies the film’s journey through the wild territories of this elusive species.
