Composition of Music for Film and Television - MA

My experience at Bristol is something that will stay with me forever. Being a film composer I even named all the compositions I finished during my program at the University "The Bristol Experience". And listening to them sometimes feels like playing a movie in my mind where I can see it all happening again. I used to live at Hodgkin House and had tons of international friends there. I also had great British and International friends at the Music and Film departments.

I remember the Head of the Music Department telling me when I arrived that I was probably the first Mexican in the history of the Music Department at Bristol. It made me really proud. The city was great, the atmosphere was so inspiring. My classmates and housemates became friends with whom I keep in touch and I hope to see again several times in the future.

I guess part of that international experience at Bristol made me understand people a lot better, as well as cultures and try to do the same with myself and my culture. It's funny though, after living abroad for some time as a student (I have already done that for about five years) you also become part of the international group, in which one can really cross all borders and know that everyone anywhere can be incredibly special. I wish we could somehow make our own people feel that in our own countries, not only in terms of culture, but respect against discrimination and appreciation of all different values.

Saying good-bye to my time in Bristol was really hard and sometimes I think no matter where I go there will always be a part of me in different places, for certainly experiences like "The Bristol Experience" gave me a world that will always somehow be part of me.
