Polaroid Stories

Directed by John Hagner

I composed this song for the actor playing
Philomel to sing during the performance, and
I wove a recorded version into underscoring that
played during her other scenes.

This is the first sound cue I ever created;
I recorded radio snippets onto my computer and
used CoolEdit Pro to compile the samples
into this sequence.

During the process of working on this production,
we all experienced 9/11; in fact, it was during a
recording session in my home, that the actors and I
found out about the crisis. In order to commorate
the event, and to acknowledge the reality of creating
art in the real world, I wove radio announcements
about this event into my cue.

that strikes home hard and true..."  -The Flat Hat
