GARDEN CINEMA EVENT

Industry Panel: Film Music 18

Part of Members' Events
60m.

As The Garden Cinema members community is not just made up of cinema enthusiasts, but also covers a large range of film creatives, we like to help connect our members working across all departments of the industry.


For our regular industry panels, we invite knowledgeable speakers to discuss their specific branch of the industry, leaving plenty of time for asking questions. After the discussion, we all head into the bar to network with fellow members.


On Saturday 5 July we will be joined by music supervisor Jen Moss, composer agent Gary Downing, and composer Harry Escott to talk about music supervision and composing for film.


Tickets are restricted to 1 per member, and available for just £5, which includes a token for a complimentary house wine, beer or soft/hot drink.


About the speakers:


Jen Moss is an award-winning music supervisor with over 15 years experience in the industry. She lives for the art of storytelling through music. After completing a music business degree at the Academy of Contemporary Music, she started her career in the sync department at Boosey & Hawkes before moving to Warner Music UK where she would eventually go on to set up an internal film music supervision department working on such films as I, Tonya, Saint Maud, American Animals, Misbehaviour, and Beast. Jen is now at music supervision company SIREN where she is currently working on killer hippo survival thriller Hungry and the Rebecca Hall starring sci-fi The End of It.


Composer agent and music industry veteran, Gary Downing founded the independent, boutique composer agency MRKR in 2023, in partnership with the legendary AIR Studios. Representing a roster including Harry Escott (Shame, Greed, Ali & Ava), Nainita Desai (The Deepest Breath, The Reason I Jump), Sebastian Gainsborough (The Northman) and JB Dunckel (The Virgin Suicides), he has negotiated the composer deals, and overseen the scores of film and TV productions for Disney, Netflix, BBC, Amazon, Apple TV+, Paramount+, Sky, Warner Bros., Universal, and dozens of independent films.


Harry Escott is a BAFTA-winning composer with a rich history of creative collaboration across the arts. Harry’s impressive array of film scoring credits include Steve McQueen’s Shame and Uprising, several scores for Michael Winterbottom and all of Clio Barnard’s films. Away from the screen, Harry has collaborated with a wide variety of artists including PJ Harvey, the poet Lavinia Greenlaw, Plan B, the ORA Singers, and Jazz pianist Kit Downes.
