Vincent has always had a big imagination and has written many stories since he was a child. He always loved music and took music lessons when he was about 8 years of age, but didn't really play much anymore until about 15 years ago. In 2002 while he was taking classes at the Art Institute Vincent began to experiment with his keyboard and audio software after becoming familiar with similar types of software he was learning at the Art Institute. At that time is when he began to compose music on his keyboaAlso during his time at the Art Institute where he learned flash and Dreamweaver he began to take some of the stories he had written and started to turn them into animated movies. Vincent's story, "The Fall of Telgar" was written about 10 years ago, but was unfinished. He had already done some hand animated scenes but now he was able to use computer software to further his story and produce a better product. He had used classical music in previous animated test scenes, but now he was beginning to compose his own music for each scene.

At the Art Institute he was not only taught to use graphic and web software like Dreamweaver and flash, but audio and video editing techniques with Adobe Premiere. Using video cameras and video editing equipment was also part of the program. In one of his Vincent's latest projects, which he is still working on, entitled: "Beast in the Woods," he mixes live film footage with an animated character.

Vincent very much enjoys the entire creative process. Animation involves writing a story, animating the characters and scenery, voicing the characters, composing the music and editing the sound and video. Much of his music is composed with a Yamaha PSR-520 keyboard and recorded onto a cdr machine. He then takes the compact disc and saves the files on his computer to be put into an audio editing software program called Acid Music by Sound Forge. In Acid Music he can drag and drop any sound effect or alter the music any way he wants. Drum beats can be added and Vincent likes to use gong effects in certain songs.

Vincent is a Christian and is involved with his church by singing in the choir and occasionally plays his keyboard for the congregation's enjoyment. Vincent very much desires to use his musical and artistic talents to serve the Lord and further the cause of Christ.

The album is a nice mix of Contemporary Classical and mellow Easy listening songs. The Easy Listening songs are in a romantic vein that are similar to the style of Yanni. The Classical sounding songs range from very soft and relaxing like a soft Mozart or a vivacious Vivaldi. There are other songs that have a dramatic cinematic quality to them. The song "Variations on a Serbian Theme" are based on the beautiful music of Rimsky Korsakov. Vincent's version has a mysterious and exotic tone to it with his use of gongs and cymbals. Some of Vincent's songs have the regal fanfares of a John Williams and the New Age qualities of a Constance Demby. All of his music is original and unique.

This video features my song, "Come Unto Me" from my latestest album, "The Hills of Home." The song is a lovely romantic instrumental. The video footage includes flash animation that I did and I used scenes from a movie that is now in public domain entitled: "Arch of Triumph" that I also edited.
