Music & Sound Design Demos
Example of original music and sound design and audio post production for the Vox Visuals film “Remember” concept trailer.
I Am This Dark World’s Light: a Jonathan Sawyer film. This powerful documentary is in memory of those we have lost to suicide. With the increasing number of suicides, this film seeks to bring awareness regarding suicide and provide resources for those who are still struggling.
Troy McClellan has also won the Award of Excellence for best original score in the 2024 Best Shorts Competition.
Prairie Sunrise was composed using an iPad with the StaffPad app. The notes, articulations and dynamics were written directly on the staves just as it would have been done on paper. This incredible technology allows for amazing playback of the score.
