Django Revised from Matt Brewer on Vimeo.

This is the project I did with a friend for our Sound Design final at Northern Arizona University in the Fall of 2012. This is NOT the trailer made by Tarantino, but rather, a parody of sorts. This was not used for profit, and exists solely as a creative parody. We do not claim the rights to any of the dialogue, music, or video.
For the project, we took the video from a trailer that we had never seen before that went to a film that has yet to be released (Django Unchained), ripped the video feed, had the dialogue transcribed by a third party, and went to work trying to re-create the sound design of the trailer. This work included voice acting, music, scene design, and audio effects. Careful listeners will notice that we even chose one of the same songs that Quentin used, albeit, a different part of the track.
We showed our trailer (the one above) in class directly before watching Tarantino’s version (which can be found here: youtube.com/watch?v=rC8VJ9aeB_g) for the first time.
How do you think we did?

TL;DR: We tried to re-create the sound for the Django Unchained trailer, having never seen it before.

Finally, my Grandfather died this past weekend.

This was a piece I did on him about three weeks ago, over spring break.

It’s the end of April in Arizona… and it’s goddamn snowing… AGAIN. It’s worth mentioning that the day before last it was 85 Fahrenheit and sunny.

I got a tenor banjo a few days ago. I promptly snapped a string while tuning it for the first time. Also, all the power outlets in my apartment complex are upside down. Anybody that can tell me why gets points, because I have no idea.

I went to USITT national conference, and got to play with Soundcraft and Yamaha’s new systems, as well as experience a custom Mayer sound Constellation install… some of these things aren’t even on the market yet. I know most of you don’t speak audio, but the feeling was comparable to a five year old receiving an entire toy store as a Christmas present.

Lauren and I tagged a CalTrain, and even added a mustache.

Hey everybody. I know it’s been a long, long time, and most of you have probably forgotten who I am. I’ve been going through a lot in my life recently, and it’s been pretty tough at times.

If you care to watch and have a few minutes, the video above explains one of the most recent developments.
