I was audio lead on the Sleepy Donut team for another Ludum Dare game jam. A 3rd place in audio out of almost 2,000 submissions? We’ll take it!
Achievement unlocked: work on a chart-topping album.

The Lamp Project: the intersection of arts, artists, and social betterment.
I recently started a not-for-profit organization called The Lamp Project, dedicated to spotlighting and supporting socially engaged artists and the causes they champion. I wore multiple hats, including ADR mixer, writer and executive producer, for the creation of some promotional videos. I hope you’ll go take a look—the first one is live on the site right now. And if being a part of an organization with a powerful mission and lots of passionate, creative people interests you, please email me: jeremy.olsen@thelampproject.net.
Thanks for for all the support from everyone!

Cleveland Show walla group.
I love these guys. I’m glad to have walla back in the (semi-)regular rotation—today we recorded show 301. It was a blast as always. Bobby, Megan, Dan, David and Nikki are all talented and hilarious people, and getting to watch them see an episode for the first time would be fun enough, but then they get to fill it with laughs, screams, mumbling, gibberish and all kinds of goofiness.
