About...
éliZabeth Anscutter


She is a composer.

It's both in a wide and profound sense that Elizabeth Anscutter composes her music which becomes the musical scores for your films.

She has a unique faculty for paying full attention to your projects.

Whether you are at the stage of an idea or a scenario or preparing for the shooting, or even in post-production phase, Elizabeth Anscutter immediately finds the musical score that suits your visual world. That's normal for a composer who writes musical scores for films, you might say. Well, not quite so, if you take a closer look. Her musical scores don't just accompany the overall ambience of your film – they adapt to the very breathing, the rhythms and in particular to the emotional world of your characters

Elizabeth listens, proposes, touches up and lends variety to the musical themes as your film project evolves. In the end, her musical scores make a compelling case. They form one body with your creation and reinforce your own intentions..

Elizabeth Anscutter's music sustains and enhances the images of a film. Both in fiction and documentary, she displays the ability of the greatest composers of film music who can accentuate visual emotion without covering it. Her work is an unforgettable melody, the song of your images.
