The Subway
Old New York

Old New York

During the NY Shutdown, I found myself missing NYC while in NYC. This piece is a reminder of “old New York”. I used many samples and clips from NYC subway stations including subway performers (and the comments from the audience). The performers used in this composition are Jalib Johnson, Sadio Soumounou, and two strangers in a saxophone battle. The last sample used is a recording I made of my neighbors cheering for frontline workers at 7pm in Queens. The city is inherently musical and I used that to my advantage.

This piece was made on Logic Pro X.

Tom & Jerry Project

This project was completed on Reaper and Adobe Premiere for Sound Design class. We were given a Tom & Jerry cartoon without the original audio and were tasked with creating a new concept for the cartoon. In this episode, "The Milky Waif" Jerry is awoken to a waif on his doorstep named Nibbles. Unaware of the danger of Tom the cat, Nibbles gets into trouble under the supervision of Jerry. My design concept for this project was to use an unusual style of music, electronic, to emphasize the comedy of the cartoon. I took the perspective of Jerry and Nibbles and the sound/music follows their actions and emotions.
