CREA SULLIVAN

---

Crea Sullivan is an Irish composer and violinist. She began her musical journey at the age of four, immersed in classical violin performance. Her dual passion for Music and Mathematics led her to pursue a Joint Honours degree at Trinity College Dublin, graduating with first-class honours.

In 2023, Crea was awarded a scholarship to Berklee College of Music, where she graduated Summa Cum Laude with a Master’s in Scoring for Film, Television, and Video Games. During her time there, she collaborated with and conducted ensembles for sessions at AIR Studios in London, the Budapest Art Orchestra, and the Orquestra de la Comunitat Valenciana. She also facilitated Film Scoring Workshops during Berklee’s Summer Programme in 2024, introducing students to the fundamentals of composing for screen.

Crea was recently selected for the Royal Scottish National Orchestra’s Film Composers Lab, receiving mentorship from acclaimed composer John Lunn (Downton Abbey, The Last Kingdom) and Danai Kokogia. She is also part of the 2025 PCAM x Balance the Mix Mentorship Scheme, under the guidance of one of UK's leading TV composers, Toby Jarvis. She was also selected for the No Fixed Mix Mentoring Scheme by String and Tins, a renowned sound design and music production studio in London. Additionally, she completed a prestigious six-month mentorship with award-winning composer Pieter Schlosser, as well as an internship with acclaimed composer Patrick Jonsson.

Crea’s creative collaborations span multiple disciplines. She recently worked as a Music Copyist on Season 2 of The Buccaneers (Apple TV, 2025), which features a score by AVAWAVES (Aisling Brouwer and Anna Phoebe). Her work as a composer for screen includes collaborations with filmmakers such as Daniela Rey, Jake Schneider, Natalie Powell, Benjamin Furman, and Kelly Emmrich. In 2024, she co-composed the score for video game Katto Rising Tides (Arcadia Games & ESAT). She also composed the music and created the sound design for the stage play Bro’s by Iona Champain and Matilda McCarthy, which premiered at the King’s Head Theatre in London in April '25. The production was praised for its sonic landscape, with one review stating, “Crea Sullivan’s sound design is a triumph, transporting us through the night with a perfectly curated score that echoes the emotional landscape of the characters. From building tension to capturing the fragility of unspoken pain, every sound serves a purpose.” Her work as a composer has been recognised through several notable opportunities: she was featured as a Demo Composer for Spitfire Audio, invited as a featured composer by EMPOWER Dublin 2025, and showcased by Trinity Orchestra in 2023.

While passionately pursuing composition, Crea continues to perform as a classical violinist. Since 2019, under the mentorship of Karl Sweeney, she has developed a strong affinity for orchestral and chamber music, frequently serving as concertmaster and performing alongside artists including Jamie Duffy. Her solo and ensemble performances include appearances at Dublin’s National Concert Hall.
