Portfolio For Christian And The Crow Hill Company

The score from my most recently published composing work. My favourite cue is Tick Tock (0:53).

FYI here is the actual short however I really didn’t like the editors decision to duck the music against dialogue in such an extreme way.

Score begins 0:13

The story here is I think this short is shit and after putting in a huge amount of work the director decided to use hardly any of my music.

So I made up my own version with my score and personally I think it works really well, bringing an absurdity and sillyness (which was the part of the brief) to the scenes especially cues at 2:24 and 5:22.

Christian, if you do watch this obviously I know your connection to Spitfire so I thought twice about including it (!) however musically I really liked what I came up with.

Looping guitars and lots of FX balanced with a choir which adds a human, organic side and a percussive element from col lengo, pizz and marcato strings.

I am currently working with an indie game dev and it’s a really fun project. This is the main theme for the landing page of the game. Felt that some ‘duck inspired’ synth patches were called for.

Another recent indie short for which I drew upon my love for filthy, distorted guitars and big riffs to add a bit of shock and awe to this trailer.

If you’ve made it this far (or even to this page!) thanks for taking the time to check out my work. If you hear anything that is of any interest I’d love to set up a meeting in Edinburgh, perhaps we can chat over a coffee?

My number is 07709 173 211.

Cheers
