Recently finished work with DMG Entertainment on a car branding spot for the Jaguar XJ Ultimate. These guys did a beautiful job shooting a gorgeous car. Take a look!

A few months ago, I had the great pleasure of re-connecting with Houston Ballet's Garrett Smith to work on our third collaboration, this one for a fundraiser for the American Festival for the Arts.

Garrett very much wanted to choreograph a dance to a string quartet, and having performed in one for many years, I was happy to reach back to my roots.

In film scoring, I usually come last in the creative process (that's why they call it "post-production"), so there's no other piece in the creative chain that is dependent on the music. But in ballet, finally seeing what a choreographer has done with your piece is just one jaw-dropping surprise after another.

Needless to say, Garrett is immensely creative, and his choreography is stunning as always. I was especially floored with how he interpreted the last section of the piece - the man is a genius.

And a big thank you to Dr. Michael Remson for inviting us to collaborate for this fundraising performance!

Here is a piece I recently finished as a commission for a production library. They were looking for "sneaky" music, and to be perfectly honest, I had no idea why they didn't ask someone else because this isn't exactly my forte. So I struggled with this piece for a good while, but in the end, I think it might've turned out alright.

8-bit Rage Quest

A few 8-bit compositions for a short set in a...surprise surprise...8-bit video game! Certainly a different beast than the 100-piece orchestra.

A private screening of Pad Yatra was recently held at BAFTA. Here's a cool picture of some of the people in attendance: Dominic Cooper, His Holiness the Gyalwang Drukpa, Michelle Yeoh, Eliza Pearson, and fearless and sleepless director Wendy Lee!
