Composing for screen, scoring for play.
Orchestral storytelling for film, television and interactive worlds.
Fernando Jonás began composing before he began speaking — or so his mother insists. He studied at the Real Conservatorio Superior de Música de Madrid, then pursued film scoring at Berklee College of Music in Boston.
His scores are built slowly, from a single melodic fragment — sometimes a found sound, sometimes a phrase hummed at 3am — that grows into the full orchestral language of a project. He rarely uses templates.
Working entirely with sample libraries and virtual instruments from his Spain-based studio, he has scored short films, indie features, video games and trailer work for directors across Spain and beyond.
Each engagement is treated as a singular collaboration. Below, the most common formats — though I'm always open to discussing projects that don't fit a category.
Complete orchestral or hybrid score, produced entirely with sample libraries and virtual instruments. Includes themes, source music, and adaptation passes for picture changes.
Adaptive, layered scores designed for interactive playback. Wwise & FMOD integration, vertical and horizontal re-orchestration on request. Produced with virtual instruments.
Orchestral arrangements from sketches, additional cues, and ghostwriting for composers under tight deadlines. Confidentiality guaranteed.
Tonal sound design, hybrid textures bridging music and SFX, score editing for picture changes, and trailer cue customization.
Reduced rates available for students and first projects from emerging directors and developers. Tell me about your circumstances in the briefing — every honest project deserves a real conversation.
Every project moves through the same six phases — though the time spent in each varies from days to months depending on scope.
A working palette built over twelve years. Tools matter, but only insofar as they get out of the way of the music.
Tell me about your project. The more context you can give — references, timeline, scope — the more useful my first reply will be. I respond personally within 48 hours.
