created a wonderful Christmas film for their staff that follows the journey of Omnicom Express - a classic steam train. Created By Be Grizzlee, the train it travels around the world, visiting the locations of the Omnicom network. It begins in Brooklyn and then flies through to Sydney, Brazil, Toronto, Paris, and London, concluding with a heartwarming message from John Wren, CEO.
The Music
I was tasked with creating a dynamic, emotional film score that captured the Christmas spirit while respecting the religious diversity of Omnicom's community. The score leans on the orchestra, with soaring melodies, haunting choirs and various musical colours that change as the train passes through different countries. Small cultural nods were composed; for example, the accordion appears as we traverse through Paris, while traditional wind instruments peak out over London, where they were a staple in the Renaissance era.
