| My Work |
 | | | | |
| My focus recently has been with soundtrack and music for theatre, finding a real interest in dramatic, atmospheric music and sound design. I love the variation in style and genre that this opens up, urging me into all sorts of directions I hadn't considered. I also write songs, books and make films when I can. If you would like to engage me in any sort of creative venture then please get in touch. |

| Easter Project 2006 |
 | | | | |
| On behalf of Themba Theatre depicting the Easter story using movement and dance. The production consisted of 9 short pieces of music describing each scene of Holy Week from the entry into Jerusalem to the resurrection. Each piece was to be only 2 minutes long which is quite a feat when you've spent the last six months creating meditation music where it takes 5 minutes to get past the introduction. Describing these scenes in a couple of minutes of music was a real challenge. Sometimes all I could do was create a mood, in other ones they are more literal sound design - all interesting stuff though :) | | |

| The Best Kept Secret |
 | | | | |
|
| | Penge Family Church decided to create a DVD that would promote the church in the community and also try to get across what Christianity, Jesus and the Gospel is all about. I was involved, along with a small team of dedicated individuals, in every aspect of the filming and production from concept, design, right through to duplication. My main contribution though was the soundtrack.
The DVD is free and if you would like a copy please go to http://www.thebestkeptsecret.info
Here's some of the music from the DVD. |
 | | | | |
| Introduction - Main theme that introduces the film, versions of which give background to the DVD main menu. | | pfc intro.mp3 1.2MB 1.20min |
 | | | | |
| Menu 2 - Music behind the Extras menu. | | pfc menu2.mp3 2.1MB 2.16min |
 | | | | |
| Middle Theme - Moving upbeat to bring in the second half of the film. | | pfc_middle.mp3 5.9MB 6.19min |
 | | | | |
The Gap As part of the Extras we provided a piece of animation called the "The Gap". It's a cartoon explanation of the Gospel - why Jesus died for us and what that means - in a fun funky way. It's a Quicktime movie of 9MB in size so it may take some time to download.

| Themba Facilitate - Ears like Steel and No Soul |
 | | | | |
| When Themba Facilitate first came together they put on a dramatic piece of physical theatre depicting the plight of street children in the Philippines of which Andrea and Ian, the founders, had first hand knowledge. Ears Like Steel and no Soul centred on the story of a group of street kids wrongly accused of murder. The production needed a soundtrack that would emphasise and work with what was happening on stage. Here's some of the 45 minutes worth of music I produced for the show. | |
