I'm here to play.'

Ghawdex (Excerpt)
Skip to 4:47 for main music theme
A documentary about the island of Gozo in Malta.
Shot over the course of 10 days on a micro-budget and 4 person crew, the film connects Gozitans with refugees, asylum seekers and migrants through topics that unite us all; water, celebration and home. The film follows ten characters, highlighting and uplifting their unheard voices into a chorus of solidarity - arguing for a shared future which transcends cultural difference or origin. Directed by Joel Chima & Raina Monteith
Ghawdex is currently in post-production. The score blends piano, vocals, trumpet and orchestral elements to powerful and hair-raising effect.
Di's Story - World Vision Vietnam
In Viet Nam, child marriage continues to be a persistent issue. One-in-10 Vietnamese women aged 20-24 years in 2014 was found to be married or in union before their 18th birthday. Di's story was made to highlight her story of success. The film's release prompted an invitation for Di to be flown to Singapore to speak at a WVV conference. It's become one of WVV proudest works.
Created by T.A.M Productions.
The score blends vocals, synthesisers, harp and percussive elements to create a theatrical and child-like theme while we follow Di.
