Composition for Media

Music shapes the way we experience stories, brands, and ideas.
I compose with depth and presence, creating sound that enhances and elevates
​the identity of every project

Final Deliverables

Making the previous version more energetic still wasn’t the answer. So, I went back to square one with a brighter approach. I learned the team was drawn to the shuffle feel from the second try, so I built around that. Below are progressively shorter edits, offering flexible pacing options for the intro.

NCA Workshopping Round 1

I really liked this first idea—it had a true "podcast music" feel. However, it didn’t quite capture the immediate emotion the NCA team wanted for their listeners.

NCA Workshopping Round 2

So, I ditched the half-time feel and added some fun samples to give it a hip, energetic vibe. The team also clarified some references that helped shape the sound.

American Parenting

Hosted by Dustin Brannon. He wanted a strong rock style, so I went with an AC/DC-inspired mock-up—despite them being about as American as a Vegemite sandwich.

Commercial Mock-Ups


Reebok Mock
(Version A)

This version features the approach of using an instrumental rock piece to accompany the video. There is a little bit of peppered in sound design to add more sensory depth for the viewer.

Reebok Mock
(Version B)

This version features the approach of using mostly sound design to accentuate the viewers sensory experience of the video. There are short bits of an instrumental rock piece to add emotional intrigue.

BMW Mock Commercial

This is an original score to what was an empty commercial with a voice over track. Guidelines by an outside party were to use only virtual instruments and audio effects native to Logic Pro.
