Seeing Music: Daydreams | Director, Composer
|
|
“Seeing Music: Daydreams” is a project centered around the creation of images based on music. The composer, Isaac Schutz, has created five original works of music for the artists to internalize and create art that reflects what they heard. “Seeing Music: Daydreams” will feature the five artists -- Aleta Pérez, Devin Yang, Amari Low Yun, Jade Chiu-Lin, and Fox Zarow -- who have each created three pieces of art to accompany the music. “Seeing Music: Daydreams” is an opportunity to share how composers and visual artists separately and collaboratively create worlds and ideas through their individual mediums and styles.

Sketches (2020) | Composer
|
|
Sketches is a collection of music I created in the first half of 2020 as we transitioned from normalcy into the pandemic. A lot of this was recorded acoustically, a very different approach than I have with much of my music that I create digitally.
Additionally, Sketch 4: March 6, can be found in Devon Wiersama's upcoming game Bombing!!: A Graffiti Sandbox |

This is the most unhinged game I have ever worked on and the soundtrack reflects that in an absolutely beautiful way.

Deadboy (2019) | Composer, Sound Designer
|
Deadboy is a 2D puzzle-platformer that follows the story of Deadboy — a terminally ill 15-year-old — as he traverses through “The Middle,” a nonsensical place that transcends life and only reveals itself in death. Featuring a diverse cast of characters with their own unique abilities that they gained through their tragic deaths, Deadboy guides its players through a series of unique, topsy-turvy lands and puzzles that defy reality and subvert the familiar. In either single player mode or local co-op mode, join Deadboy and his friends as they work together to combine their powers and wit to escape The Middle and discover what lies beyond the world of the living.

Forested (2017) | Composer
|
|
Forested is a 2D platformer developed by Bumpy Ghost Studios where you play as a ghost that is running from a rainstorm. You use your ghostly abilities to solve puzzles and help animals, all the while discovering your past. Forested also won the award for Best Art at the Northeastern University Games Showcase 2017.
I composed the music from Forested by mentally placing myself in the area that I was attempting to emulate. Forested is split up into various biomes that each have their own theme, but still remain firmly within the overall world. This project taught me a lot about creating continuity between songs. As this was a slightly larger scale project as opposed to a simple game with one or two tracks, the music had to flow from one track to another. This was achieved by using similar instruments and harmonies as well as overall maintaining a slow tempo to match the pace of the game. |
