New Video(Apr 25/2008)
As mentioned a few months back, I had the oppotunity to collaborate with
4DZ once again. This time around I was contracted to do post-production on
their concerts intro. No location sound was used only rerecorded and sound
design material. Beat provided Quality. An excerpt of the video is available
in the media section.
IGDA Member (Mar 10/2008)
After meeting many members and hearing nothing but great things, I've
just recently joined the International Game Developers Association , in order
to gain additional knowledge of game development. With the advancement of
technology it is important for every aspect of development to share a common
voice.
New 4Dz Project in the Works (Jan 25 /2008)
Montreal's own 4Dz has contacted me, requesting sound design for an upcoming
project. The details cannot be discussed, but I assure you it's going to be
HUGH!! I hope to have a sample in the Media page by March.
Recording Ambiences (Dec 1 / 2007)
One of my favourite hobbies is recording audio. Creating ambiences from
live environments and instruments is always a blast.
The mod i'm currently working on calls for some eerie environments and obscure
tones. That said, I needed to record a Grand piano's, grandiose sound. Plucking
on the low strings (under the cabinet) allowed for some dark textures and
quicker manoeuvring in the high register sends, chills down the spin. Check
out the pics of the session and download a high res audio excerpt!!
Winter 9: Officially complete (Oct 20/ 2007)
The winter 9 webpage is now accessible.
You can view the animation in both high and low resolution .mov. Also included
is a full credit listing. Job well done to everyone who helped create this
animation.
Web Makeover! (Oct 1/ 2007)
What a better way to start off fall with a fresh new look. Well here it
is: the new design. The media page has been updated with a bunch of new video
projects, recordings and some compositions. A new background page containing
my bio and a links page to shoot out people and sites I respect. More to come!
Necros
Wins! (Sept 8 / 2007)
Congrates to Justin for his hard work and dedication; and also the team that
participated to help Necros win the Foundation De Sève Undergraduate
Award in film animation. I had the opportunity to lead the sound design and
write the original music for the project. Hopefully we can all work together
again, to make another amazing film.
Working on a MOD. (Aug 19 / 2007)
I'm officially the newest member of he Decloak: Source Mod team. I will be
heading as the Audio lead. Best part of all I get to work within the Half-Life
2 SDK, which has a strong audio engine!
New Animation project. (Jun 1 / 2007)
Director, Producer, Animator, D.Jeevan recently got into contact with me after
seeing my work on the short Necros. I will be in charge of all the audio for
the animation entitled Winter 9. The art is looking great and i'm really anxious
to get cracking with the project.
Job @ Wave Generation! (May 1 / 2007)
After working for Wave Gen part-time for a year and a half, I will begin working
as a full-time employee next week. Still holding the elegant title of Sound
Designer, my tasks tend to vary from creating original compositions, engineering
recording sessions and general tech & workstation up-keeping. The vibe
is still great and the projects are always a challenge. Let the good times
roll!
