Tribeca Film Festival 2019 - Making Waves World Premiere!

‘Making Waves: The Art of Cinematic Sound’ had our world premiere on April 29, 2019 at the Tribeca Film Festival.

What a surreal experience! I went from spending years upon years toiling away on the film in my home office with director Midge Costin, supervising editor Tom Miller, and producers Bobette Buster and Karen Johnson - crafting it within an inch of its life… To then suddenly be watching it with an audience on the big screen, reading reviews about it in the Hollywood Reporter, and making peace with the fact that we had birthed our baby, and it was no longer ours - it was the world’s now. It was a feeling that’s hard to describe, but that I’ll never forget.

It was great to have my girlfriend and family come out to join me for the premiere in New York too.
