Universal Music UK has announced the appointment of Ross Sellwood as managing director of its Globe: Soundtrack & Score division.
Based at Abbey Road Studios, London, Globe: Soundtrack & Score launched last summer to maximise the artistic and commercial impact of music in film and TV.
Among its first projects are On Chesil Beach, the adaptation of Ian McEwan’s 2007 book, Yardie, Idris Elba’s directorial debut for Warp and Studiocanal, and Mary Shelley, the upcoming romance with music composed by Amelia Warner.
Sellwood is a highly respected music supervisor who is joining Globe from Banijay Media where he was director of music. He previously worked for RDF Media Group, Zodiak Media and Sound Pocket Music, having started his career in 2001 at BBC Music Copyright.
Globe president Marc Robinson said: ‘Globe: Soundtrack & Score is already proving the benefits of being part of the creative process at the earliest stages of soundtracks, helping to shape and fund budgets and then being the team that takes the music through to recording, release, marketing and distribution.
‘Ross is an exceptional music supervisor who will consolidate our aim of reimagining of how film and TV music is created.’
