The request was to add a soundscape to the CGI of the short film Lumen, the main subject is The Descent from the Cross by Rogier van der Weyden. I synthesised the sounds using Reaktor and performed live the Ensembles using a controller, following the camera and object movements to maintain an organic feeling for the parameters automation.

This jazz album recorded at Bunker Studio in New York has been mixed by me in my studio in Rome. The album features Domenico Sanna at the Piano and Rhodes, Ameen Saleem at the Bass and Danya Hawkings at the Drums.
After heavy editing in Pro Tools, I mixed it intending to obtain a warm and spacious sound.

Unlinked is a game using NFT on the Wax Chain. At the moment, I worked on two promo videos that are supporting the pre-launch phase. I was asked to mix the dialogue and do Sound Design for each teaser. The challenging part of the project was the deadline, I had only 6 hours to complete each video.

This is a match-three game that was initially released in 2017 and has received continuous updates and new features since then. The first edition of this game was using the very limited integrated audio features of Cocos2d-x. I implemented all the assets as “simple” audio files with features like randomization of samples and parameters handmade in the code. In the last few years, we moved the audio engine to Wwise, and I have restyled various sound effects since then, and I have composed additional parts of the soundtrack. I did not compose the first version of the soundtrack.

This is a match-three game that was initially released in 2020 and has received continuous updates and new features since then.
I composed the music and made all the sounds of the game. Both the sound design and the soundtrack make large use of orchestral elements in order to obtain a playful and goofy feeling similar to old Looney Tunes cartoons.
The game uses Wwise as the audio engine.

This is a racing game made in a low poly style that revolves around the gameplay idea of using just one tap for driving. 70s and 80s police tv shows inspire the soundtrack that I have composed. The sound design does not want to be realist but engaging, explicit and evocative. This is the first large game that I made using Wwise.

I worked on this album as the engineer and sound designer. I produced the whole album with Luigi Di Chiappari, that curated the composition of a big part of the instrumental. The singer has contacted me and Luigi to build her album from some song ideas and lyrics she had.
In a lot of tracks, we have experimented with sounds and instruments, and almost the whole album has been made in Ableton Live.

This game it’s my first released project made with Wwise. I made both the soundtrack and the sound design. I conceived the effects to sound as an additional part of the arrangement, and they use a similar sonic palette as the music. Working on this project has been an enjoyment, but unfortunately the game is too hard for a lot of players and it was not a success. The hardness is the same reason I can not manage to do a proper screen capture of the gameplay in order to show my work on the sound.
