Work for MICHAELHICKOXFilms
From 2014 - present, I have been working as a composer for MICHAELHICKOXFilms. MICHAELHICKOXFilms is a very popular YouTube channel run by filmmaker and animator, Michael Hickox, a channel which specialises in Lego Stop Motion videos. These fantastic animations appeal to a range of audiences. Below you will find all of the films I have worked on for Michael Hickox, from the first one I did (Lego Treasure Hunt) to the latest.

Lego Pizza Delivery 6
This is the 6th episode in one of MICHAELHICKOXFilms' most popular series on YouTube. This was the first episode of the series to feature my music, as well as the first to feature a full original score made especially to fit the video. So far, as of October 2015, it is the longest video we have worked on together. I really enjoyed working on this film!
"Tim and Ralph" - Season 2
This is the second series of the popular YouTube show 'Tim and Ralph'. In this series, we follow Tim and Ralph through yet more trials and tribulations. With the music, I brought back some of the older themes from season one in order to link the two series' together. And of course, the main theme song was kept for the intro and outro of each episode.
Lego Gardening
This is a short LEGO stop-motion video created by MICHAELHICKOXFilms. As with every project, I tried to create something musically original that follows the actions on screen. Certain moments in this video are also emphasized with crescendos or trumpet blasts.
Lego Movie Theater
For this short Lego stop motion, I created more theatrical music than I had previously made for this Lego world. The intention behind that was to match the subject of the video. The music in this film is intended to signify the film that is being watched, as well as to match what you are watching too!
Spy vs. Spy: The Loot Crate
This is a short promotional video for Loot Crate, created by MICHAELHICKOXFilms. For this video, I created two subtle themes for the two characters (as well as a small one for the actual box). With my music, I also tried to accentuate the sneakiness and intrigue that surrounds the characters.
Lego Christmas Shopping
A Christmas themed sequel to the very popular 'Lego Shopping' video from 2012. In this newer video, we follow our character through a busy shopping centre filled with hoards of Christmas shoppers as well as Santa himself!
"Tim and Ralph" - Season 1
This is an animated Lego stop motion series created by MICHAELHICKOXFilms. I composed original music for all 5 episodes (as well as music for the promotional video). Each video has its own unique score which I have timed purposely to fit against the visuals. I kept all music for the series similar, so that it all ties in, and centred most of the themes around the piano.
Lego Treasure Hunt
'A discovered treasure map leads three friends on a short adventure. "X" marks the spot, but what could it be?'
I worked with popular YouTuber, and stop-motion animator, MICHAELHICKOXFilms to create music for a video of his. For this film, I composed three seperate themes which were edited by him to fit the video.
