BIO

Jacob Eliett was born in the suburbs of Detroit and grew up being exposed to the golden age of cinema and an array of musical styles. His love of film, theater, music, and sound began at a young age, along with his desire to learn multiple instruments. He realized composing was the path for him while playing violin and viola in youth orchestras, motivating him to take composing lessons via Skype while still in high school.

He holds a Bachelor of Music with a concentration in Film Music Scoring and a Master of Music in Composition for Film and Video Games.

Jacob has been composing for 8 years, creating his own distinct sounds.

He also has a zest for recording sound to film & credits his musical background for giving him a great ear

For Jacob, sound is the basis for all good media and music is the icing on the cake.
