So I’m late posting this but back in October of 2009 Ryan Drean called and asked if I could do an interview for the producers podcast he does. I, of course, said yes and we had a good conversation about producing, voice-over and protools tech geek stuff. If you have some time to kill, give it a listen. Then check out the rest of the site, it’s full of cool interviews from a bunch of noteworthy industry pros.

Glenn Beck aired a documentary called “The Revolutionary Holocaust.” It took many people working many sleepless nights to put this together. I was one of those insomniacs (I did the sound design). Even with the short time frame we had to put this together, 99% of the music was original, scored by Anthony Newett. A wonderful composer with whom I’ve work for a couple years.

This special aired to excellent ratings and I’m sure that’s a sign of more specials to come down the road.

Broken into various parts, I’m sure, since it was an hour long.

I’m glad to be done with the long nights but looking forward to the next documentary.

Leading up to The Christmas Sweater, Glenn and I worked on creating a very subtle environment of sound design throughout the show. He wanted something which wasn’t necessarily noticeable at all times but simply added a sense of immersion for the audience - to place them in the same “space” as the character. There were also some points which he and I thought needed to be obvious and larger than life, such as brief flashbacks, which should rip the audience out of their current environment immediately (as it would happen inside the main character’s mind).  One of the larger-than-life scenes was the storm. Since this is a pivotal and climactic moment in the show it need to envelop the audience. It was by far one of the most challenging scenes to design. Here’s a little insight to the process…
