Night Light

No one chose me from Sheridan College this year, much to the surprise of my friends in the program.
Then Bruno Degazio contacted me and said there was a student who needed a composer because she wasn’t able to attend the meet and greet. He recommended me, and I am thankful. I would usually get courted by animators who had dark topics in the film and wanted something broody, angry, or aggressive.
This film was completely different!

When I started the project, Qing Han told me that she had a large following on Deviant Art and online in general. Qing Han had created a temp track using Asian Dream Song by Joe Hisaishi so I use this as a reference and created something quite similar. Little did I know that this film would be my most viewed musical composition ever, and that it would lead to me working with Jesse McAnally!
