SOUND FOR FILM


Short Film Sound Reel - Baking and Entering (Upcoming)


BIO

Hello! I'm Jacob from Memphis, Tennessee.I love to compose for film and games, rich with emotion and mix for the most climactic finales to contrast with tranquil moments in between.

Presently, I am learning Wwise + Unity and seeking game jams to collaborate with fellow creators and show my true colors.
In my spare time, I enjoy cooking plant-based cuisine and venturing for raves and live music!


BAKING AND ENTERING

Short Film (Release Date TBA)

I composed original orchestral music for the animated short
Baking and Entering by Lucid Beezzz. (Release TBA.)
Cole, my partner, is the director of this capstone film from
Middle Tennessee State University.
Shots changed several times late in production, and I was awakened to the reckoning: I must start again with a clean slate.After Cole and I churned all-nighters and inhaled coffees, we felt star-struck of what we created together.Our film has been selected for festivals around the world, and I am proud to finally share my music with you!Credits: Composer, Sound Designer, Mix Engineer
Software: Apple Logic Pro, Native Instruments Komplete


MYSTERY OF THE KINGDOM

Feature Film (Released 2021)

I engineered all audio and sound design for the animated feature
Mystery of the Kingdom by Hidden Things Media.
(Released March 2021.)
This project was a personal milestone that proved many firsts for me.

- I engineered all audio for stereo and Dolby 5.1 surround.
- I created unique sound design and ambiances for many portions, and lead revisions of others' deliverables.
- I advised for portions of the music soundtrack to augment the story.
All of these I had never previously done for a large-scale project. I am grateful to have learned so much early in my audio career.Credits: Lead Sound Designer, Mix Engineer, Music Consultant
