DEMO REEL
This reel contains the original music and sound design for seven commercials. I think you'll really enjoy it, since each spot mixes its own unique style of music with an exciting blend of sound design. With over 20 years in the music business, I am available to create contemporary or period music and dynamic sound design for any kind of film or video projects you are planning, large or small. Although these commercials have not been broadcast with the audio tracks on this demo reel, all music and sound design heard on this reel is my original work, and represents my personal audio interpretation of the visual images appearing in these spots. This demo reel is not intended for sale or broadcast.
