Biography

While studying Music Composition at University of the Arts (grad 2005), Dave became incredibly fascinated with making music for animation and other multimedia projects. When tasked with laying in a whole soundtrack for a student project, he quickly realized he was at home in the world of production and post production sound. What followed was a love of the entire process of editing both sound and picture, writing, and even shooting. Dave has worked on various shorts, films, animations, commercial projects, and games on both the production and post side.

In 2007 David joined Apple as a Creative Trainer and quickly became a certified trainer in Logic Pro, Final Cut Pro, Aperture, and Final Cut Pro X.  At Apple he also provided Pro App workshops for local professionals from freelancers to KYW and NFL Films. In 2012, he left Apple to pursue an opportunity with Hit the Sticks doing sound and music for their strategy game Just Tactics and their follow up project, Mark of the Old Ones (still in development). He was a 2015 GIFA Gold winner for Best Sound for work on Scott Storm's animated film, The Apple Tree, and nominated for multiple awards for sound and score for his work on Michael Yurinko's horror/thriller Entity.

David tries to keep his brain matter from turning to goo by teaching both private music lessons and also Sound and Music Tech at Rowan University, consuming a seemingly endless pile of tutorial text and video, and learning new skills. When not recording metal scraping on the grate of his fireplace or gaff taped to the editing chair, David enjoys cooking, practicing instruments, and spending time with his wife and two kids, who are also obsessed with making absurd sounds with household objects.
