Audio post work for new feature film!

by

Peter Darmi and the HJ team just finished audio post production on the new Mediahorde inde feature "In The Weeds" staring Doug E Doug. This was a fun project since it required some imaginative sound design as well as making the production sound work. There was no ADR! For you tech geeks, we mixed on Adobe Audition which has some awesome mix capabilities. It's the second feature we've used it for, and it won't be the last! … [Read more...]

This is ace VO guy Corey Carthew recording a radio spot for an upcoming John Oliver show at the … [Read more...]

Which of course means the work is trickling down to me since I'm either the next to last … [Read more...]

This is the trailer for the short film I scored for Hello Joe Media which will be launched online on Monday, September 14th at noon via a Vimeo link in Gripped Magazine.  It's a climbing film, but the climbing is more of a metaphor and a means to overcome both adversity and long odds to end with triumph and an enduring friendship. It's a beautiful little story, and I'm honored to have a hand it making it. … [Read more...]

Life During Covid

by

During the lockdown there wasn't much work going on, so I amused myself with creating an animated character series around the character, Mr. Tricam. Several people have suggested I include this series to show Hello Joe Media also does animation. I certainly had fun creating these during the Covid lockdown! Mr. Tricam is wisecracking, irreverent, sometimes controversial animated piece of rock climbing gear who sometimes serves as my avatar. He offers (mostly useless) advice on … [Read more...]
