Film/Video
As one who has spent years indulging my passion for creating visual images and producing music and sound, scoring video and film has proven to be a process well suited to my experience. Another aspect of my enjoyment of this field is in making use of my large collection of musical instruments and other sound-making implements. I have experience in many aspects of producing sound for picture from recording location sound to digitizing, synching, scoring and mixing.
