Peter: “Before officially starting on American Born Chinese, I received a test video which featured the show’s stunt team engaged in a high-octane chase/fight sequence. It was fast, energetic, well-shot and edited, and SUPER fun to watch! The potential for what we could do on our end with sound was enormous, and I was immediately hooked and began planning out new design approaches. I also read the graphic novel the show was based on, and immediately identified with the themes of the story. It is all about self-awareness, loyalty, family, friendship, magic and heart. I put a lot of myself into this show, and I am proud of the end result. Can’t wait to watch it soon!”
We can’t wait for you all to check out Peter’s amazing Sound Design work! American Born Chinese is available to stream now on Disney+.
