This is a short 50‑second video of me walking from my old student accommodation in Athlone to the engineering building on campus, with the Red Hot Chili Peppers song “Can’t Stop” playing in the background.

The footage was recorded on a Canon DSLR, and post‑production was completed in DaVinci Resolve. The opening plays at normal speed in black and white, but once I exit the building, the aesthetic shifts to colour and the footage speeds up. Throughout the video, clips alternate between normal and fast motion — scenes like leaving the apartment, crossing the road, and climbing the stairs appear at regular speed, while the rest plays in fast motion.

The decision to film this in a one‑shot, first‑person view was inspired by the Copacabana nightclub scene from Martin Scorsese’s Goodfellas — one of my all‑time favourite films. I’ve always loved the immersive energy of one‑shot sequences in film and TV.

As part of my AV Composition module in 4th year, I was tasked with selecting one of three silent short films and creating a musical composition based on its narrative.

I chose a short film titled “Devil in a Convent,” which depicts a devil deceiving a group of Christians into believing he is a priest.

The score I composed for this film is a MIDI orchestral piece inspired by music from the Regency era and the Classical Radio station featured in the game “Fallout 4”. The project was produced entirely in Reaper.

Between August 2024 and 2025, I created a 3‑track Indie/Alternative Rock extended play called “Distant Lands.” Each song connects to the EP’s main theme of screwing up and feeling like an outcast in different parts of life.

I recorded and edited the entire EP myself. I performed the drums, vocals, and rhythm guitar live, and I generated the lead guitar and bass parts using MIDI.

The full EP is now available to listen to on Spotify.

Here is a collection of 3 foley projects that I created during my time at TUS Athlone. These were created using hands‑on Foley techniques — performing sounds in real time, experimenting with props to find the right textures, and layering multiple recordings to build depth. Each scene demanded its own sonic identity, so I approached them with different creative strategies while keeping a consistent workflow: record, edit, sync, and mix. All 3 projects can be viewed on Linkedin using the following links below:

This collaborative radio/podcast project was produced as part of a group assignment in my third year of college.
Me and my group helped each other out with recording, editing and structuring the show, and ensuring the final mix was clean, balanced, and engaging.
Working as part of a production team helped me develop stronger communication, workflow, and technical consistency in a studio environment. Link available below:

For this fourth‑year college project, I produced a radio‑style documentary exploring the rise of home recording studios across Ireland and around the world.
I researched the topic, wrote the script, recorded and edited all narration, and mixed the final piece.
The project combined audio storytelling with industry insight, highlighting how accessible recording technology is shaping today’s music scene. Use the link below to access it:

A few years ago I produced and presented a one‑off radio show for CRC FM in Castlebar, focusing on some of the most iconic movie themes in cinema history.
The project involved scripting, recording voiceovers, editing music transitions, and mixing the full show to broadcast standard using Reaper.
It was a great opportunity to work in a real radio environment and apply my audio engineering skills in a professional setting. Click the link below to listen to it on my Linkedin page:

This is a “Reeling in the Years" style radio project that I created during my third year of Music & Sound Engineering at TUS. I researched the chosen year, scripted the narrative, recorded all voiceovers, and edited the full piece — blending music and commentary to recreate the classic RTÉ format. The project strengthened my storytelling, pacing, and audio editing skills. This programme can be viewed on my Linkedin Profile which can be accessed by clicking the link below:

Hi Crash Ride is my capstone project exploring how drums and percussion influence musical genre identity. I re‑created Daft Punk’s Get Lucky in three distinct styles (Jazz, Reggae, and Funk Rock) to highlight how rhythm, feel, and production choices shape listener perception.

I handled the majority of the recording, mixing, and editing, working as both audio engineer and drummer. During drum tracking, I collaborated with another engineer to capture my performances, and I recorded other musicians on guitar and piano to bring authenticity to each arrangement. I also created the bass guitar parts using a MIDI keyboard and instrument plug‑ins.

The project demonstrates my approach to genre transformation through rhythm, tone, and arrangement, showing how subtle changes in drum technique and production can completely redefine a song’s overall feel.
