I'll be posting tracks, videos and updates here in the coming months, so be sure to subscribe for news on my activites.
First off here's a quick update on what I've been up to so far:
I've been pitching for a lot of UK Tv Ads for a variety of companies such Audi, Olay and the WWF. Collaborating with Ben Mitchell on these has been a great!
Recent successes include Swatch (below) and Czech Beer Kozel. Will have some more news and clips coming here very soon.
Moving on to the technology side, I've been having loads of fun with VSL, The Vienna Symphonic Library. It's an extremely well thought out orchestral library, loads of articulations for every instrument. Another great thing about it is that you can download individual instruments as you want - say you need a Trumpet for a project, just go it for €75 or so....
I'll also shortly be supplementing this with the EWQLSO, the long titled EastWest Quantum Leap Symphonic Orchestra (Platinum Edition). This collection is a little more 'out of the box', with samples recorded with varying degrees of room/hall ambience. Will be interesting to see how these two libraries play together............
It's my aim to write the odd article regarding orchestration, composition and programming with these tools and others...so keep watching!
Chris
