"Domestic violence in the home forces a young child to take matters into his own hands."

"Violent Ends" is a short film by Danielle DeAngelo, directed by Keith Driver that premiered at the Orlando Independent Filmmakers Legend film challenge.

The film took home two nominations at OIF, and continued to be placed in other film festivals. Anna Lesnick's original score tackles and reflects the intense emotions within the short film, with dissonance and sparce instrumentation.

"Red Christmas" is a horror short film by Shawn Winders that premiered at the Orlando Independent Filmmakers Aura film challenge. 

"Red Christmas" was then an official selection for the 2023 Spooky Empire Film Festival, following OIF.

Anna Lesnick's original score brings a dark twist to some classic Christmas tunes, just as the film introduces a dark, twisted Santa.

"Mysterious Island" is a track that I created in a Video Game Music Composition class at the University of Central Florida. I composed it in Ableton Live 11 to score over a cut-scene of the video game "Yoku's Island Express," but it can also stand alone! I hope you enjoy this epic piece that I had a fun time writing!
