Education[edit]
After graduating high school in Raleigh, North Carolina, Clopet studied acting at Uta Hagen's HB Studio in New York City,[1] and studied music at NYU's Clive Davis Institute of Recorded Music, the Berklee College of Music and the University of Miami, which he left in 2009 to pursue a career in music.[2]
Composing career[edit]
In April 2013, Clopet scored the short film "Dream Girl" which was officially selected to the Garden State Film Festival.[3][non-primary source needed]
In 2014, Clopet teamed up with filmmakers Alex Mann and Adam Bloom of Space Oddity Films to create and score a running series of tech-inspired short films including "3 Seconds" and "Me2", amassing over three million views on YouTube.[4]
In 2016, Clopet scored Good Bones, which debuted at the YoFi Film Festival. That same year, he contributed music for the film The Infiltrator starring Bryan Cranston, Diane Kruger and John Leguizamo.[5] He also contributed music for Sony Pictures Television's Crackle series StartUp starring Martin Freeman and Adam Brody, co-writing the main title theme with Chris Hajian.[6]
Recording career[edit]
Clopet has released two EPs and one LP. Name It What You Want (2011) was produced by Raymond Richards and Justin Gerrish,[7] and partly recorded at Avatar Studios in New York. It was released in June 2011.[8]
In January 2014, Clopet joined Brooklyn-based electro-pop band Great Good Fine Ok, with whom he sometimes tours, playing bass guitar and synthesizer and singing backup vocals. His vocals were featured on the group's debut album Body Diamond, released in 2014 on Neon Gold Records/Epic Records and Transgressive Records/Warner/Chappell Music publishing.[9][not in citation given]
