JACK WHITFIELD

"Its all I want to do; make music, be around music, create sounds, tell stories through music".
Jack is a London-based composer, producer, pianist, and instrument builder whose work spans film, television, and experimental sound design. His practice centres on composing for visual media, with credits across short films and advertising, while continually exploring new approaches to contemporary composition and sonic storytelling.
Alongside his commissioned work, Jack is developing a body of solo music rooted in minimalism. His compositions favour restraint, texture, and atmosphere, creating expansive sonic landscapes through a refined, understated approach. His debut album, Lux Locus, is currently in production.
A key aspect of Jack's work is the design and construction of large-scale experimental musical instruments and sound sculptures. During his music studies in London, his final major project, The Sound of Resonance, explored instrument building, experimental sound creation, and the development of custom sample libraries and virtual instruments (VSTs). This research established a distinctive palette of sonic textures, particularly suited to film scoring within dystopian, horror, and psychological thriller genres.
Driven by curiosity and experimentation, Jack takes a hands-on approach to sound, combining instrument design, acoustic exploration, and digital technology to create original musical tools and immersive sonic environments.
Looking ahead, Jack aims to further establish himself as a composer for picture while expanding his practice through sonic art installations, musical sculpture exhibitions, and continued exploration of virtual instrument design and sound technology.
