Jerome Roy
Fascinated by the emotional power of cinema and television, Jérôme Roy began his artistic journey as an actor before fully embracing music as his creative path. A lifelong musician, he draws on his theatrical background to craft expressive scores and thematic writing that deepen character and story. Known for his colorful, mystical, and lyrical style, his compositions bring nuance and atmosphere to every project.
He scored the animated film Ficelle, treating it like a CGI feature with a sweeping orchestral score and song-driven moments in the spirit of classic Disney animation. His music has also been featured in over 400 performances of two original multimedia productions—Dunort and Océanne—each with its own distinct musical identity.
Jérôme holds a Bachelor’s in Music Composition (Université de Montréal) and a Graduate Diploma in Film Scoring (UQAM). He is a member of SOCAN, SPACQ, and UDA.

UNIQUE EXPERIENCE / INFORMATION
My path into composition began as an actor, which gives me a unique sensitivity to character, gesture, and story. This perspective informs my music, whether scoring to picture for animation or shaping live multimedia productions performed hundreds of times on stage.
