Richmond International Film Festival - promotional trailer music

When friend and colleague Richard Colmer asked me to compose an underscore for his spoken word poem, I was incredibly moved and honored. Working on this piece was a profoundly beautiful experience. Thank you for trusting me with this, Richard.

Here are some words from Richard:
"A few days after my mom passed away I wrote and recorded a spoken word in her memory. A while later, and here we are. This is for anyone who has lost someone to cancer."

WAVES - Score Sample

"Von Doom is a time bending short film that manages to work in 3 key stages of Doctor Doom’s life into a single cohesive narrative, taking the villain from an innocent child in Latveria to an ambitious scientist to his ultimate form as Doctor Doom. The story hews closely to Doom’s established history from the comics and shows just what makes him a menacing, yet sympathetic, character. All this in less than 15 minutes, including a Marvel-esque post-credits scene (we won’t spoil that for you)." - Stephen M. Colbert (http://screenrant.com/doctor-von-doom-fan-film-origin-story/)
