01Positioning

One identity. Not a playlist.

A channel is not a sequence of disconnected tracks. It has a voice—and that voice should remain instantly recognizable, whatever the format, time slot or intensity of the news.

02One signature, multiple uses

One sonic DNA across the entire schedule

Independent concept study created for BFM TV: five uses, one coherent editorial direction. Each format carries its own energy without losing the identity of the channel.

03Hybrid

Where orchestra meets electronics.

From the tension of the bed to the power of the outro

A two-part construction: a bed that supports the information without overpowering it, followed by an immediate, expansive outro. Strings, brass and synthesis speak with one voice.

04Sound serving picture

Music written to picture

Rhythm, silence and impact are shaped with the edit—not added as an afterthought.

06Music for picture & documentary

Storytelling beyond broadcast.

The same orchestral language can support a documentary, evoke a period, reveal tension or bring scale to a story—without ever taking its place.
