Gary Schwartz – Carny Obscura

I created the soundtrack for a new forty-second animation by filmmaker Gary Schwartz, which is live on YouTube and will premiere in-real-life in October! The sounds for this film include clips from tapes I recorded as a child, field recordings of real locations including Cedar Point and Dutch barrel organs, a few catalogue sounds and a bunch of custom sounds created at home for this short. It’s amazing how many useful noises a simple bicycle can make.

As in our previous collaborations, all of the animation was created after the soundtrack was completed.

’Carny Obscura’ will premiere  at Carrington Art in Sandusky, Ohio. The exhibition, DARK CARNIVAL' will open Friday, October 16th, coinciding with the 150th Anniversary of Cedar Point. Time an exhibit duration TBA, please check the gallery site for accurate details.
