Tension Studios

This is an excerpt from the movie Zombies of Mass Destruction (ZMD) from Typecast Films.  I was the sound designer for the gore and zombie effect sequences, which turned out to be most of the movie. This video clip has been mixed so that everything except the sound design elements have been turned down.  Every sound used for this scene was an original recording done during post production.  Adam Smith-Kipnis was the foley actor for the extensive fruit and vegetable mutilation session, as well as the voice actor for the zombie.

In keeping with my spooky and gory nature, Tension Studios has been tapped to create the horrific sound design for ZMD, a feature length zombie movie. ZMD is being entirely filmed and produced here in the Seattle area by Typecast Films. Stay tuned for more info.

This is an excerpt from the main title sequence of Equal Impact, an independent film shot and produced in Seattle. They wanted a very percussive and rhythmic track, and they also had some existing edits that needed to be synced to the music for dramatic effect. This was an all MIDI and sampler based track and I used a bass mute patch and a tom set to provide the bulk of the rhythmic melody. The cheesy orch hits and twinkly synth lead fit right in with the aesthetics of the film. I did it on purpose. Really.
