Scotland

Scotland

For the last month and a half, I was in Scotland working on a film. On the very rare occasion that I had any time off, I made a few tiny OP-1 Songs.

Making Rain

Rain is done! Rain is a short film I've been wanting to make for the last 5 years. This is a four-part behind-the-scenes look at the making of "Rain" over the last 9 months. I'll keep you updated as to when and where the film can be seen.
