hi, i'm eve

Hi, I'm Eve. I'm a Multimedia Artist, Composer, Music & Video Producer, Sound Designer, Photographer, Writer, and DJ. I have over 15 years of experience creating videos and music. With a diverse range of skills as an independent artist, I know how to craft a media project that punches well above its budget.I really enjoy working with others, and I'm easy to get along with. Having worked with many teams across a range of projects, I've also assisted in recruiting and training new members of my team as a Project Manager. Wearing a lot of hats is fun, and I love to understand every step of the process. I'm always learning something to expand my horizons as a creative.In my spare time, I make Electronic/Pop records as an independent artist, creating my own music videos and promotional teasers. I also enjoy taking photo walks, spending time in nature, and hosting live music events in the Seattle area. I also volunteer at FORM, a non-profit artist community. With a small team of eight volunteer organizers, we've managed to raise over $100,000 for other non-profit charities while hosting fun events for our community, both online and in person.You can find me deeply engaged in editing, directing from behind the camera, or focusing on the smallest details of an audio mixdown. I love what I do, and have a genuine passion for getting the details right. I strive to deliver high-quality content that drives traffic, new growth, and long-term engagement from my client's target audience.

Music Production

With a wide variety of styles under my belt, I've composed original music for personal and commercial projects such as Video Games (e.g. Daughter of Dreams), YouTube channels (e.g. Fact File), and Podcasts (e.g. Art For Artists). My expertise is in Electronic music, but I've created Pop, Orchestral Scores, Dance/EDM, Hip-Hop, Alt-Rock, Metal, as well as some smaller experiments with genres I'm less familiar with.I love mixing acoustic and electronic elements in my work, combining textures to create a rich sound. I'm also a DJ, and love to play live sets with my own music and others. Each song has different end goals, and I manage the energy and emotion in each track to suit the intended use. I ask lots of questions to understand the project inside and out, and tailor the music to fit.

Sound Design

My love of Sound Design started with Dubstep, which evolved quite a bit over the years as I dove into synthesis, audio editing, and effects processing. I now take my own field and foley recordings, mixing synthetic and organic textures to make sound effects and soundscapes, which helped me broaden my skills into film and interactive media.With a small team of three, I worked on RAVE BOSS (credited as Erin), creating a dynamic soundtrack, sound effects and recording voice lines during the 2019 Seattle Indies Game Jam. Since then, I've worked on several game projects — some commercial, some for fun. Game Jams have taught me how to prioritize my work with limited time.In addition to media, I've designed sound for other products on a contract basis. At Stryker, I created a cohesive sound effect library for one of their product lines, emphasizing user experience and brand recognition. I worked with a panel of executives and designers, adjusting in real time during a conference meeting to address their feedback and iterate on ideas I brought to the table.

Audio Production

While learning how to mix and master my own music, I've also worked on other audio projects, including audio mixing and mastering for video and podcasts. I keep dialogue as clear and understandable as possible using EQ, Compression, and side-chaining, allowing voices and music to take up space without interfering with each other.Most of this work was done for my own personal projects, but I have also done this work for clients. Take a look at the video below to see an example of a finished mix and master I completed for a video project (credited as Erin):

Photography

While I love video, I also appreciate taking and editing photos. I have lots of fun with street photography, landscapes, portraits, and candids during events like concerts or weddings. My editing process changes based on what each photo needs, but lately I've been striving for a filmic low-contrast look for most of my photos. I've included some of my favorites over the last 5 years below — you can click each photo to maximize it.

Graphic Design

I have lots of personal projects that needed logos, so I decided to learn how to make them myself. Eventually, that led me to design posters, websites, and more, gaining experience in Adobe and Affinity software.I've also worked with publishing software, designing the layout of documents and magazines. While not my strongest skill by comparison, I've included a few examples of my Graphic Design work here.
