Sounds Like: YOU CAN VIEW ANY OF THESE VIDEOS FULL SCREEN AT http://youtube.com/filmtoneThe video above showcases some of sound design and music abilities...The video above contains a loop from one of the songs I wrote... This video was sean chapman's sound design project for Audio Post Production class. My voice talents are featured in 14 different parts. Try and see if you can hear where my voice comes up...This is a sound design project that I completed for Midi 2 class. All sound FX, Foley, and music were created by me. ADR was provided by myself and Serin VillegasThis is a sound design project that I completed for Midi 1 class. All sound FX, Foley, music and ADR were created by me.The video above is a short film created by students in the Media Sound and Visual class. It contains original music that I wrote exclusively for the film as well as some music that was written before hand. This video is my first attempt at a podcast investigsting the link between lyrics and youth violence. It features my editing, camera composition, music, screenwriting skills and use of after effects for visual effects compositing. Logo was designed by myself and Levon Jackson. Intro logo, intro credits and exit logo were animated by myself. This video is a my first attempt at creating a short film with a group of others in Media Sound and Visual. My contibutions to the film were screenwriting, shot composition, lighting(grip work), boom operator (mic holding guy), sound mixer, editor, and props master (Marissa's helmet, diane's clothes and tool belt, etc.) This one was tough, but fun at the same time. The audio didn't come out so well. The remastered version with additional and corrected is also above.The Successful Artist“It has often been said that an artist should work for himself, for the love of art, and scorn success. It is a false idea. An artist needs success. Not only in order to live, but primarily so that he can realize his work ... The majority judges a work of art in relation to its success. So why leave success to ‘successful [artists]’? Each generation has them. But where is it written that success must always go to those who flatter the public taste? For myself, I wanted to prove that success can be obtained without compromise, even in opposition to all the prevailing doctrines.” --Pablo Picasso
