We are delighted to be able to say that the Mogul has a) accepted a place on the Women in Film & TV mentoring scheme and b) agreed a deal with Orion to publish her upcoming novel The Beauty of Murder.
Because of this, she’ll have less time for music, so we’ll be making some changes to the way we work.
You’ll still be able to hire both of us to compose for your feature, short film, or TV drama (availability permitting, of course)
The Prawn will handle all other commissions – either here or via tristaylor.com.
DO NOT PANIC. We are still here. Thank you so much for your support thus far!

Off the back of 15 international festival screenings of her last film Habibti, director Nour Wazzi is now crowdfunding her next short, Shackled.

Here’s the result – a score for two music boxes, soprano voice, violin, accordion, calliope, tuba and orchestral percussion:
Please visit the crowdfunding page for Shackled now! For a few dollars you can get an on-screen ‘Special Thanks’; for a few more you can get even better perks…

Huzza!
Plus it has added more screenings to the list – here’s an updated one:
