Powerful, unpretentious support of the story is at the heart of Garret Reynolds’ original music and sound for video games, film, and television.
The first graduate of the Beal Institute for Film Music and Contemporary Media at the Eastman School of Music, Garret has composed original scores for over twenty short films, documentaries, and animations, as well as three video games to high acclaim.
A keen musical ear informs Garret’s creative decisions and process when designing sound effects. This can be heard in the intertwining of interactive music and sound design in his work on Afterlight and Light Borrower.
Other collaborations of Garret’s include his original chamber composition, Lift, written for and premiered by the Rochester, NY modern dance company, BIODANCE, and his compositions Sueños de Mi Amor in 2016 and Suite in G in 2017 for the award winning Eastman New Jazz Ensemble.
When he isn’t experimenting with sound and music, Garret can be found playing games or tending to his plants.
Garret holds a Masters degree in Film Scoring/Contemporary Media Composition and a Bachelors degree in Jazz and Contemporary Media with high distinction from the Eastman School of Music in Rochester, New York. He currently makes noise in Los Angeles, California.
