There is a label on this page suggesting that the subject of the article may fail to meet notability guidelines.
However, it seems to me he may meet at least one (and perhaps two) of the criteria stipulated on the Notability Guidelines for Music page:
1. Has credit for writing or co-writing either lyrics or music for a notable composition. Folmann has composed music for 200 movie trailers--and in some cases the movies were major feature film blockbusters, like Spider-Man and The X-Men.
4. Has written a composition which has won (or in some cases been given a second or other place) in a major music competition not established expressly for newcomers. Folman has won a British Academy Award (BAFTA) for one of his video game scores--a major international award. He has also won several other significant awards.
Is he Hans Zimmer? Maybe not, but he's clearly a composer of some note, with achievements and accolades well above the average level.
I think he qualifies to be on Wikipedia, and I suggest that the notability label should be removed from this article. Chillowack (talk) 10:22, 25 June 2014 (UTC)
