Before founding Core Music Agency, Ari Wise was an award-winning film composer with over 200 credits. A graduate of the University of British Columbia’s Music Composition program, he started his career as a musician, assistant conductor, and arranger. During his final year of study, he discovered film scoring, which became his primary focus. In 1991, he was accepted into USC Thornton’s prestigious "Scoring for Motion Pictures and Television" Advanced Studies Program. There, he received both ASCAP and BMI award scholarships. Studying in Los Angeles under Bruce Broughton, David Raksin, and his idol, the late Jerry Goldsmith, significantly shaped his technique and approach to composing music for film. Ari also earned a Certificate in Entertainment Law from Osgoode Hall Law School at York University.
After graduating with honors from USC, he returned to Vancouver and, within 15 years, scored over 200 feature films, TV movies, live-action and animated television episodes, documentaries, and shorts. His notable works include "The Conclave" starring Brian Blessed and James Faulkner, "Police Academy, the Series," and "School of Life" featuring Ryan Reynolds. During this period, he received two Gemini Award nominations (now Canadian Screen Awards), one Leo Award, and five additional Leo nominations.
In 2007, Ari transitioned from composing to representing fellow composers. Originally launched as "The Canadian Composers Agency," his firm started with the largest roster of media composers in Canada.
His dedication to the art and business of music for film has led him to participate in film festival industry forums and panel discussions across Canada. He has also been featured in interviews and articles in some of the industry’s leading publications.
