APRA AMCOS and the Australian Guild of Screen Composers (AGSC) have announced the winners of the 2024 Screen Music Awards, an annual event that celebrates ‘excellence in composition’ across the small and large screen.
Jed Kurzel took out the Feature Film Score of the Year for the third time with his composition from Monkey Man. Directed by and starring Dev Patel, Kurzel’s uniquely unconventional music composing style matches the kinetic energy of the action revenge thriller. He is a multi-award winner, with his score for Snowtown named Feature Film Score of the Year in 2011. He received his second win for Slow West in 2015.
