Paul Curtis is one of the new wave of UK film composers. A highly acclaimed composer and guitarist, he has written music for TV, Film, Video Games and Advertising. He is also the author of the well-received Filmmaker’s Guide To Composers published by Mango Reel. Equally happy working with live musicians or sampled instruments, Paul’s music blends diverse influences to create dramatic and evocative scores. His style is especially suited to advertising, video games and film and documentary projects.
Having spent most of his youth playing in orchestras, bands and theatre productions, Paul quickly established himself as a well-respected guitarist and singer-songwriter in the Reading indie scene in the 1990s.
Paul is based in South Wales, and brings music to our site that previously has been enjoyed both by his clients in the UK, mainland Europe, and the USA. As a media composer delivering high-quality production value, he's much in demand on both sides of the pond!
