IMPLUSE

I had the pleasure of working with Kayla Franklin and scoring her short film, Impulse. The film focuses on a young lady as she struggles with a unique obsession.

Pua Ka Uahi

 

I composed the score for Kalilinoe Detwiler's animated short film, Pua Ka Uahi. Inspired by Hawaiian legend (moʻolelo), the short follows Pele, a hot-tempered fire goddess as she races from Puna to Hilo against her rival Kamapuaʻa, the shapeshifting trickster.

 

Pua Ka Uahi Full Version

 

a series of mundane things

is a collection of short videos I recorded and scored in celebration of the splendor hidden within the seemingly humdrum objects and scenes of the everyday. 

Beyond the Waking Realm

 

An orchestral suite inspired by memories mingled with imagination. This collection of orchestral shorts conjures the ominous  atmospheres and images one might encounter outside of the realm of consciousness.
