This unprecedented, tenebrous years ends (on the personal/artistic front) in every way different than the last but one: I am back to the DEEP FAKE script, closing in on its third iteration. Much movement in the feature arena planned in 2021.

Worth enjoying 7 SPLINTERS IN TIME dubbed into Russian. Perhaps it was the film’s proper language all along?

Much of November-December 2020 is spent producing/directing/editing/scoring a series of broadcasts for Columbia Teachers College. I write an original jazz piece employing the dexterous facilities of drummer Tim Keiper and saxophonist Geoff Countryman, which accompanies an elaborate graphics piece. There are animations (creating by the polymath Rita Mansinho) and a gallimaufry of live performances (shot by the equally multifariously talented Jared Watson).

Honored to be cutting a collage-style live performance featuring Ben Harper and Jack Johnson for Thundergong (a Jason Sudeikis-hosted virtual benefit). You can watch it here (at 34.30).

So proud of this music cue I composed and recorded for Hedley & Bennett. What a lovely brand (we have their aprons and masks) & story. Guess the meter. directed by Shayan Asgharnia. 

Cutting a multi-camera solo concert for the legendary and delightful Ben Harper.

Pleased to be embarking on a multi-hour concert edit for Warren Haynes (of Gov’t Mule) and friends, including Dave Grohl, Jim James, Grace Potter, and many more.

The music video I directed/animated for ‘Heart is Gold,’ the tune by Braison Cyrus, is out. This represents a solid month or so of handmade painting, animating, and joint articulation. Original horse created by Rob France, with landscapes and all other images by myself. Thank you for the wonderful opportunity Braison and Trey Allen.
