This music was composed by me as part of the Advanced Video Game Scoring class. It is Hovercraft music for the game Crysis: Warhead.

Crysis: Warhead: Hovercraft Music

This project is comprised entirely of my processed vocal and body sounds, nothing more. There are no synthesizers used. To facilitate this process, I recorded myself doing vocal percussion into Logic and then cut it all up. After that, I processed certain sounds and made them into a several octave, round robined Kontakt patch that could be played. I then essentially played myself into Logic again and then sang the pads, backgrounds, and hooks behind the rhythmic elements. Then I mixed and processed some more and edited, until I had what you hear now. Also, I should mention that I entered my "A Cappella Dubstep" patch into Berklee's Patchwork Design Contest and won in the Rhythmic category! Lastly, after 10 years of college, I dedicate this song to myself and the rest of Berklee College of Music's graduating class of 2013!

A Cappella Dubstep - Survive!

This was one of the projects that I did for the second half of my Electronic Production & Design major final projects. It's a jingle for my company James Morgan Music. I may change the name in the future, but I really like how this turned out!

James Morgan Music Jingle

This is another jingle I created for my company (cause I can't decide on a domain name). Hopefully "James Morgan Audio Design" says it.

James Morgan Audio Design Jingle

A project composed and conducted live by me. The ensemble consisted of flute, clarinet, three violins, piano, horn, and two synth string players.

King Kong Cue

This was a cue for my thesis scoring project for my B.M. in Film Scoring at Berklee College of Music. The cue was conducted and sequenced by me. The live players were flute, clarinet, horn, piano, and guitar. In the story, the snowman comes inside and starts playing with the boy - dancing and jumping around until he falls down and the boy runs to his rescue.

The Snowman - A New Friend

This was a cue for my thesis scoring project for my B.M. in Film Scoring at Berklee College of Music. The cue was conducted and sequenced by me. The live players were flute, clarinet, horn, piano, and guitar. In the story, the boy and snowman are outside as the snowman grabs the boy's arm and they take off into the air! They fly around the town and then over the ocean, where a whale splashes his tail and shoots his spout playfully at the boy.

The Snowman - Flight!

This was a cue for my thesis scoring project for my B.M. in Film Scoring at Berklee College of Music. The cue was conducted and sequenced by me. The live players were flute, clarinet, horn, piano, and guitar. The film starts with an owl flying next to the screen. The camera then takes off down the countryside and stops at a boy's house where he's getting ready for a day out in the first snowfall of the season.

The Snowman - Main Title

This was a cue for my thesis scoring project for my B.M. in Film Scoring at Berklee College of Music. The cue was conducted and sequenced by me. The live players were flute, clarinet, horn, piano, and guitar. The boy is excited, playing in the snow outside. He picks up a bunch of snow, makes a snowball and throws it at the house. As it hits the window, his mother opens it and scolds him, telling him to go play somewhere else.

The Snowman - Stray Snowball

This project was entirely sequenced by me using Vienna Ensemble in Digital Performer. The scene is from the movie "What Dreams May Come" starring Robin Williams and Cuba Gooding Jr. This cue begins immediately after Robin Williams's character dies and he awakens in a lushly-colored, painted world. His old friend meets him there and explains his new abilities, which include being able to control anything with a single thought. He tries this out on a stationary bird, which he makes dip and dive to his heart's content.

What Dreams May Come

This was the main title to a sexy, dark, thriller entitled "Wild Things," starring Neve Campbell and Denise Richards. The film starts out in the Florida outback, with crocodiles, snakes, and other dangerous animals. The camera eventually makes its way into Miami and to a soccer field where people are playing. This is when the film begins. Note: this was a project completed as partial requirement for graduation from the Film Scoring program at Berklee College of Music
