I was fortunate enough to be nominated for 2 Leo awards this year for composing the music for ‘Float’ and ‘Nash’. ‘Float’ is a short film that I produced with Shawn Angelski, which was directed by Juan Riedinger. ‘Nash: a documentary’ was a documentary (obviously) about famed two time NBA MVP Steve Nash. The film was co-directed and edited by Corey Ogilvie who I am currently work with on a documentary about the Occupy movement. Juan was also nominated for two awards for his acting in the Haunting Hour and a short film entitled ‘blood/sweat/tears’.

The Bravo!FACT short film ‘Float‘ that I made (produced, composed) with director Juan Riedinger and producer Shawn Angelski has been accepted to the Newport Beach Film Festival in California. This will be the world premiere of ‘Float‘. We’re looking forward to celebrating this moment with the organisers and festival goers in Newport Beach this April.

The women’s fashion boutique Aritzia is using my song ‘Float, Part Two’ from the Eta Carinæ EP for their T. Babaton Spring 2012 trunk show video. Visit their blog to check out their upcoming line. I love opportunities like this, so thanks Aritzia!

The first 4 minutes and the last 8 minutes of music in ‘Nash: The Documentary’ (premiering at the Vancouver International Film Festival this 11th of October) was composed by yours truly. My friend Corey Ogilvie co-directed the film, which follows Phoenix Suns basketball player Steve Nash around the world. It’s a great expose into the world of professional sports through the perspective of Nash. It’s an extremely well made film and contains many high profile interviews with people who know Steve Nash the best. The score is comprised of two songs that we’ll be included on my next album, ‘The Demon-haunted World’. So if you want to get on idea for what’s on the horizon for Theves, come watch Nash: The Documentary @ the Vancouver International Film Festival.

Shark Out of Water, the film I produced/composed with director Juan Riedinger, has just received the A&E Short Filmmakers Award at the NSI Online Short Film Festival.

Here’s a trailer that I composed for a documentary that follows the life of one of the most prized basketball players in the world, Steve Nash.

The precursor to “The Demon-Haunted World”, the Eta Carinae EP, has moved onto the mastering phase and will soon be released on the web for FREE DOWNLOAD. The EP will contain five tracks.

For your information: Eta Carinae is the name of the supernova that is represented in the background of this website and on the cover of the album. A high-resolution version of the image can be found here.

Juan Riedinger, Shawn Angelski and myself just wrapped and edited our six-minute 35mm short film “Float” that was commissioned by the Bravo!FACT film grant programme. We are all extremely pleased with how it turned out and look forward to seeing it air on the Bravo! network. The cast and crew’s talent and diligence really showed in the final product. We were so fortunate to have our two leads Nancy Sivak and Ben Ratner bring their immense talent and professionalism to this film. Their compelling performances are sure to resonate with the audience. Of course, I will post with any further news.

I just got the word from my agent that I will be appearing in episode 318 of Sanctuary, which airs on the Scifi network. I’m thrilled to be working alongside some of my very good friends who work on the show. I don’t want to say much more than that as I know how much this industry likes its secrets.

This video was created by designer J Tyler Helms for the song ‘My Body Is a Cage’ by Arcade Fire. I love this video, I love everything about it. Bringing two seemingly unrelated pieces together to make a coherent whole that is greater than the sum of its parts.
