Industry Experience

Media & Entertainment, Professional Services
    paper Film Composer

    I composed the full 13-minute original score for Wings of Love; Helsinki, a 5D immersive cinema film. The project involved close collaboration with the director and production team, shaping themes, pacing, and dynamic musical moments that aligned with motion cues, environmental effects, and visual rhythm.
    I also composed the accompanying 40-second epic trailer piece.
    The final score became a central emotional layer of the experience, enhancing the film’s impact and storytelling.

    “I first came across Emilia Takayama somewhat by chance while planning a new 5D experience cinema film. This 13-minute film takes viewers on a flight over Helsinki — and for that, I needed a powerful, immersive musical score.
    
    Emilia is not only an exceptionally talented composer, but also a warm and approachable person. From the very beginning, our collaboration flowed effortlessly. There was a strong sense of trust and connection right from our first meetings. Our working process was agile and creative — we were able to quickly bounce around ideas, refine them together, and shape musical solutions that perfectly served the film’s atmosphere and rhythm.
    
    The end result — a 13-minute musical journey for Wings of Love – Helsinki — is stunning. The music breathes with the visuals and the 5D technology in a way that far exceeded my expectations. Emilia’s composition adds depth and emotion to the film, becoming an essential part of the viewer’s overall experience.
    
    Emilia also composed a 40-second epic trailer track — and it was a delight to see that her very first version was exactly what we had hoped for.
    
    I’m deeply grateful for this collaboration. If you’re looking for a reliable, creative, and wholehearted composer — someone who listens, understands, and builds the right musical world — I can wholeheartedly recommend Emilia Takayama.”
