Emmy nominated composer Jay Vincent has been creating unique music for feature films, television, and game properties for over a decade. In 2012 he composed original music for the Golden Globe Awards, had a #1 television series in its demographic, "LEGO Ninjago: Masters of Spinjitzu," and became one of the youngest composers to receive a BMI Film & TV Award (the first of two). His beloved score for "Ninjago" was also nominated for the 2020 Daytime Emmy Award, the 2015 Annie Award, and has been added to the legacy of film music released by Varese Sarabande Records. Jay is also part of the Star Wars universe, composing music for "The Yoda Chronicles" on Cartoon Network. A longtime collaborator with EA Games, his music can be heard as the top selling track on EA's "Dragon Age 2: Epic Times" video game soundtrack, and in many trailers for standout games including "Battlefield 4," "Mass Effect 3," "Command and Conquer," "Dragon Age 2," and "Dragon Age: Inquisition." His recent score for the Spanish film "El Regreso de Elías Urquijo" (directed by Cannes Emerging Filmmaker winner Roque Madrid), was honored with the award for Best Original Soundtrack at the Festival Internacional de Cine Bajo la Luna in Islantilla, Spain. The worldwide phenomenon of "Ninjago" has given him the privilege of presenting rich and intelligent music to a new generation of children, in the spirit of the classical masterpieces in Chuck Jones' "Looney Tunes." In a time where musical themes are losing popularity, Ninjago fans in 40 countries are treated every week to memorable melodies played by unique instruments from around the world. With music that is mature yet accessible, his experience scoring this beloved series has convinced Jay that kids still enjoy meaningful music in front of the television. Like many of the industry's top composers, Jay received his graduate degree in film scoring from USC, where he previously earned degrees in Composition and Cinematic Arts. His formal studies of cinema technique and history provide him unique insight into the possibilities of how music can interact with the film medium. As a concert vocalist he has performed Haydn in Austria, Gregorian Chant in Rome and "Jingle Bells" in Japan. As a listener, his meticulous and diverse study of sound, story, and history has yielded an arsenal of abilities that make even the most challenging project possible. As a collaborator, his relationships with filmmakers have produced breakthroughs in careers and lasting works of art.
