Why hire me?
"A freak for sound" (Pitchfork)
Enlivening PICTURE with original music & sound is SOMETHING I REALLY LOVE DOING - a sensitivity and gift that has been steadily unfurling via a wide range of film, TV and fine art score projects.
Collaboration is very much in my DNA - I greatly enjoy serving and embellishing the work of a director & TEAM - HELPING THEM FIND THEIR PALETTE & SIGNATURE SOUND.
I've been observing the effect of sound on people and their relationship with moving imagery all my life.
Through 3 decades IN music I have become sharply perceptive about how to serve any particular MUSICAL purpose to picture.
Film composers that I resonate with include Gustavo Santoalalla, Jonny Greenwood, CRISTOBAL TAPIA DE VEER, Carter Burwell, Thomas Newman, Warren Ellis & Jon Brion.
WITH A FIRM GRASP OF TRADITIONAL SCORE METHODOLOGY AND AN INCESSANTLY INNOVATIVE HEAD FULL OF IDEAS - I'M ALWAYS INTERESTED TO TALK PROJECTS. hit me up via the contact form on this site.
