ABOUT

Ece Ünalp (pronounced "eh-jeh") is a film and media composer, arranger, and multi-instrumentalist specializing in orchestral, electronic, and hybrid scoring. A recent graduate of Berklee College of Music’s Film and Media Scoring program, she brings a classically grounded yet contemporary approach to storytelling through music. Her work has received multiple awards from the Saint-Saëns and Berlioz International Music Competitions.

Her narrative film work includes Galvamander and SAFE, psychological horror and thriller projects, as well as Hare’s Dream, a short for which she composed the original score. Hare’s Dream has been selected for the Brooklyn International Short Festival 2026 and recognized as a nominee at LA Indie Shorts 2026 and the Montreal Women Film Festival 2026. She is also set to score Dr. Malig’s Running Late, an absurdist psychological comedy, expanding her work across genres.

Beyond film projects, Ece’s experience spans live performance, chamber music, and collaborative composition, with contributions as a composer and arranger for projects including the Berklee Women’s Film Initiative Composer Club and the Berklee Motion Picture Orchestra. Her work has been presented at college events and professional industry showcases.

In addition to composing, Ece performs as pianist, cellist, vocalist, and percussionist, appearing with ensembles such as the Berklee Motion Picture Orchestra and Berklee Symphonic Winds.

Fluency in English, Turkish, and French informs a global perspective on musical storytelling. Driven by an innovative approach to orchestration, Ece continues to explore new soundscapes that elevate and enrich visual narratives.

ARTIST STATEMENT

Music is my language. An extension of my thoughts, emotions, and imagination. I compose to shape narratives, evoke feelings, and connect with people beyond words. My passion lies in music’s ability to transport listeners, whether through an orchestral score, a melody, or a blend of acoustic and electronic elements. Music is at the core of my life; it shapes how I perceive the world and express creativity. I want to create music that makes people feel something while watching a film. Not just seeing the scenes but truly connecting with the story through sound. It’s the same feeling I had when I first scored a film and watched it come to life with my music. I see my work as a bridge between tradition and innovation. While deeply influenced by orchestral film composers of the past, I embrace modern soundscapes and evolving technologies in music production. In an era where genres constantly blend, I mix orchestral tradition with contemporary sounds to create expressive narratives.

As an artist, I aspire to contribute meaningfully to the field of music by crafting scores that resonate across generations. I aim to bring fresh perspectives to film and media scoring, combining my knowledge of Western orchestration with my understanding of Turkish and Middle Eastern musical traditions. My goal is to create music that not only enhances visual storytelling but also stands alone as a compelling and memorable experience.

My audience includes filmgoers, music enthusiasts, and dreamers who, like me, are captivated by the power of melody and harmony to tell stories. Whether writing for film, television, or interactive media, I hope my music fosters connection, sparks imagination, and leaves a lasting impact.

My name is Ece Ünalp. I am a composer, arranger, and multi-instrumentalist.

I take inspiration from storytelling, using music to shape emotions and bring scenes to life.
