SAMPLE PROJECTS

Experience Music Project — Architecture
Producer/Director
As Editorial Director for HarmonyCentral.com, funded by Paul Allen’s Vulcan Capital, I was charged with bringing rich media to the world’s most popular website for musicians. Insider info: Acclaimed journalist Robert Doerschuk made his on-camera debut with this segment, which focuses on Frank Gehry’s astounding architecture for Seattle’s Experience Music Project (another Paul Allen project).

BIAS — Interactive Flash Demo
Producer/Director/Writer • Audio Design • VO
Software developer and longtime client BIAS asked me to create and voice this interactive Flash product demo. I hired the talented Marvin Sanders and Andrew Stone for code and design. Insider info: That panning magnifying glass in the “Realtime Signal Processing” segment looks easy, but takes major trickery; go on, just try to make one yourself. See demo

Experience Music Project — Sky Church
Producer/Director
It’s tough to shoot huge interior spaces and have their grandeur translate to a tiny screen — but I think this segment, shot by Icelandic filmographer Siggi Matthiasson, pulls it off. Insider info: Designer Gerard Howland, who’s worked with the Rolling Stones and Disney, also created the giant Coke bottle and baseball mitt at the San Francisco Giants’ AT&T ballpark. See video |
