Composer, Guitarist, And OrchestratorJonphippsmusic.Com Oct 2011 - PresentIpswich, United KingdomI work with international bands, creating virtual orchestrations for world-class producers such as Jens Bogren, Tue Madsen, and Brett Caldas-Lima, both at home and abroad. Collaborators include Amorphis, Moonspell, Hatesphere and many more that can be heard in the showreels and portfolio below. This work requires me to make use of my skills in composition, orchestration, arrangement, production and songwriting, as well as my knowledge of performing metal music on guitar, bass, voice, and drums.To create my virtual orchestrations, I write the orchestral parts using guitar and keyboard midi input, playing industry standard virtual instruments in Logic Pro X. To add nuance and detail to virtual performances, I shape the sound with the Livid Guitar Wing and Sensel Morph controllers. I then collaborate with either the band and/or the producer to establish the final version via a process of constructive draft evaluation, before delivering the finished orchestration to the producer so that it can be worked into their mix for the song.

Once composed and produced, the music was added to the extensive library of albums that Alibi has to offer for it's international clients in the film, television, and computer-games advertising industry.Amongst other track placements, my creative work for Alibi can be heard in the video 'ISS: A Step Closer to Deep Space' by Boeing/NASA, and 'Snowflake' by Hershey's Chocolate, which has clocked over 2 million views on YouTube so far.
