The most recent spot – Sound Design for Qwest Communications. Video Edit by New Century Digital Media, Chapel Hill, NC.
Next is a spot for Trust-E featuring my own device for ‘audio-motion-control’ – it’s called a record player, a phonograph turntable. Not a common thing these days. Sometimes you have to turn to old technology 
I was on the shoot, too – Shot in film on St. Pete Beach with Grown Man Films, now known as Grown Man Brand.
Here’s a little ‘Beat Poetry’ with a jazzy piece for TBO.com. That’s Melissa Fair’s voice. I’m playing all instruments here.
A Spot for GNC vitamins. Animation by Humouring the Fates.
Citizen’s Bank & Trust – a nice exercise in combining Sound Design and Composition. I had BOTH jobs! Fun. I admit it was a bit inspired by Charlie Brown’s teacher. Bill changer prop by Devin Rice, a renaissance man – also a great musician and video editor/animator.
A Lo-fi look for this Capital One Latino market spot, featuring a prominent player for the Tampa Bay Mutiny Soccer team.
Acoustic guitar and Voiceover by Jim Beckwith on this “Life. Printed Daily” campaign for The Tampa Tribune. I did the VO for a place holder and they liked it enough to keep it! Since then I’ve created a VO demo at Voice123. I was also on site for location audio recording.
I was audio producer and recordist for this Tampa/Hillsborough Convention and Visitors Association (THCVA) spot. All audio post by Common Touch Music. Music by Freddy Montes, a wonderful Cuban musician who immigrated in 1985.
A cappella vocals on this spot by Jim Beckwith, for U-Save Supermarkets. This spot was definitely inspired by Bobby McFerrin.
A little feel-good music for this lifestyle spot, utilizing my Fender Strat guitar. I love working to picture, seeing what comes with inspiration. This spot by Grown Man Films definitely inspired the music.
