Audio Mixing and Post-Production for a Short Film

VEDA is a CINEPOEMA made by Lola Lustosa and Vanessa Cokaric. The work is a manifest in favor of humanity and collective future. Have you stop to think what it does mean to bring one into life today? What is the power of that? The film is a tribute to the ones that never desist of the yang generations and will fight for harmony with nature.

I contributed to the film by post-processing the audio and producing the final mix.

Sound Design and Music for an Experimental Animation

Fusion is a collaboration with Tuomas Tuomiranta, who created the animation using Processing. Real-time data from the animation was sent to Max via OSC, where I generated the sound using that data. I produced several audio interpretations and composed the final sound design from these renders to match and enhance the animation’s dynamic flow.

The foundation of the soundtrack is derived from the actual colors and their frequencies, translated directly into sound. Additionally, the evolving properties of the animation elements were used to modulate and shape the audio, creating a seamless integration between image and sound.

Shortly after our collaboration began, an opportunity arose to exhibit the piece. Fusion premiered at Flash Vallisaari on September 21, 2018.

Original Music and Sound Design for an Experimental Short Film

The visuals of the NAPOLI film were translated into sound, forming the foundation for both the musical composition and sound design. A poem recited by lead actor Pasquale se Fabbio was converted into musical notation and used as the basis for the main melody.

Seppo Renvall is a pioneer in Finnish experimental film. He works mainly with film and video, but hid artistic output also includes photography, installations and happenings. His films are characterised by an abstract imagery in black and white and a non-narrative structure that often focuses on the apparently commonplace and everyday.

I consider myself fortunate to have collaborated with him on the film, which premiered on May 11, 2017.

Composed original soundtrack music for a documentary film.

Musical contributions for the Finnish Zeitgeist-inspired documentary film Ajan henki. Not all tracks on this reel were included in the final soundtrack. In addition to original compositions created specifically for the film, SARANA live sets were used for selected scenes.

I also produced the Dolby Digital 3.1 mix for the final soundtrack and handled the post-processing of the audio.
