About

I’m David Findlay, a film and television composer and scorer with more than 100 screen credits and a track record across thrillers and comedies. I bring a rare blend of experience, speed, musicality, and dramatic instinct to helping directors tell stories through music. I collaborate with directors and post teams under real-world production pressure to deliver story-first musical partners.

My background spans classical training, jazz performance, piano, composition, orchestration, and decades of practical scoring. I move comfortably between intimate piano writing, lush orchestral textures, jazz-influenced harmony, contemporary hybrid scoring, and minimalist emotional underscoring. I work from a professional studio and can collaborate remotely with directors, editors, and post-production teams, delivering original composition, MIDI mockups, audio recording and editing, stems, final mix preparation, and revisions.
