Charlie Clouser – Jigsaw

October 9, 2017 by Mike Greene

How cool is it that we have composers like Charlie Clouser on our forum?  Check out these two must-watch videos where Charlie is interviewed about his score for JIGSAW (of the SAW franchise.)  Fascinating stuff.  “No slaves, no VEPro, just Logic X and 250 instances of EXS-24 in glorious 4k.”  Read Charlie’s thread about it in this forum post.

The video interview is in two parts:

Part 1

Part 2

Hurricane Harvey – How We Can Help

August 30, 2017 by Mike Greene

My brother, Brian, runs the Houston Food bank. His house flooded on Sunday, but he’s been working full days coordinating with the government and other charities to get food where it’s needed. Those thousands of people sheltered at the Convention Center? Cots and blankets are the Red Cross. Getting food to them is the Food Bank. It’s an immense job, because there are shelters scattered all over the city, all of which are in urgent situations.

There are no guide books for “How Food Banks Can Prepare for Hurricanes,” but Brian does have the benefit of learning from the guy who ran the New Orleans Food Bank during Katrina. That guy would be … Brian. Yep, literally a month before his new gig at Houston started, Katrina hit while he was still running the New Orleans operation.

I hate that Brian has to deal with this again, because it’s rough on him. Honestly, though, he’s the best man for the job, so it’s good that he’s there. Sure, he’s my brother and I may be biased, but he’s really good at this. For starters, the largest food bank in the country isn’t New York, L.A., or Chicago. It’s Houston, which wasn’t even top ten when he first took the reigns. Brian did that. The Houston Food Bank is thankfully well stocked, and with the new facility he had built, it’s ultra-efficient. That’s going to pay off during this next few weeks.
