Hamish OliverComposition & Sound Design for Games/TV/Film/TheatreHi! I'm a composer and sound designer for those things mentioned just above. I also do a lot of related things such as performing, arranging, lecturing, musical directing, and synth programming. My work as an arranger and performer appears on albums by a few different recording artists, and I've toured internationally several times as a keyboard player. Lately I've been doing a lot of composing and arranging for New Zealand orchestras, teaching at the University of Canterbury, playing in the Christchurch Symphony Orchestra and composing for video games after winning a professional development award. I attended the 2017 and 2018 Game Developers Conferences (GDC) in San Francisco and studied interactive music software tools in Montreal.
