Todd Maki
t.maki@silverlingvirtualstudio.com Todd specializes in media music composition and serves as the conductor and director for Silverling's live recording sessions. With a lengthy resume of musical scores for several feature films and other projects, Todd has been an active film composer for many years. His work has been featured internationally, appeared on syndicated television networks, and and has been nominated for several awards. Beginning his musical journey at a young age with classical training in piano and percussion, a lifelong fascination with electronic synthesis was eventually born, which fostered a strong inclination towards sonic experimentation with chord progressions, musical theory and composition. Deeply interested in the engineering process, Todd also sought to gain a mastery over the process of musical production, leading to work as an engineer and producer for many years, with the production process just as much as the compositional process. He has composed musical scores for several feature films, advertisements, artists and continues to conduct various ensembles. |
