What's new
Working with my friends - the four Transamerica commercials I did music & sound design for are now airing. You can view (and hear) them on the Transamerica website (click on "view our commercial".) The first one is based on the tune "Tomorrow" from the musical "Annie", and if you listen closely you can hear the various machines playing "tomorrow, tomorrow", each in its own clinky, whirry sound... The others feature all original music. Creative direction by the awesome JWT team Matt Genné, Deb DeWitt, Roy Trimble and Brad Steinwede, written by Matt Genné, directed by the brilliant Polish Brothers, CGI by Hydraulx, and featuring the formidable talents of Ryan Bancroft (tpt & fl), Emalina Thompson (fr. horn) & Derek Joseph Stein (cello).
FOR LOVERS ONLY, a stylish romantic drama by Michael and Mark Polish, starring Stana Katic and Mark, is NOW AVAILABLE to stream or purchase at iTunes, Amazon and many other digital outlets. It's also playing theatrically at a number of international festivals, for details visit the film's website. FOR LOVERS ONLY is a fiercely original and visually opulent b&w road movie set in France, and the music is a blend of romantic nostalgia and cutting edge sound design, featuring solo trumpet by a remarkable young trumpet player, Daniel Rosenboom. Other musical contributions come from my favorite violinist, Lili Haydn, and a truly original new voice on the cello, Derek Joseph Stein. YOU CAN BUY THE OFFICIAL SCORE ALBUM on iTunes, Amazon.com, CD Baby and many other digital outlets.
