Jason Ellis is a multi-faceted musician who specialises in media composition, piano performance and choral directing
I have always had an obsession with writing original music as a way to properly express myself, from my earliest connection with music improvising based on the music I was learning on the piano, or playing around with the tape speed settings on an old cassette player I had inherited. With a keen sense of empathy and as I've matured this has become a great way to express other peoples emotions which has translated wonderfully to creating impactful and emotive scores for film and TV projects and enhancing music through production techniques.
