Alexander Wheill(I)
- Actor
- Casting Director
Started experimenting with sound and audio, and writing music, in the
early eighties with low-grade synthesizers, toys, and later with more
professional equipment.
Started shooting fiction/horror/science-fiction home movies in the mid-eighties on VHS cameras without post-production or editing.
In college (late eighties), studied film making, photography, editing, television production, and sound design. Participated on various levels (often uncredited) in numerous college and low-budget movies (principally shot on super 8 or video). Won a best actor award in 1990 for lead performance in semi-stop-motion film "Death By Cottonelle" (out of print).
Wrote first official songs in 1987, performed/founded various local musical bands (principally electronic-oriented) in 1988, released first solo album in 1989. After numerous other releases, participating in various collaborations, and explored musical experimental mutations, officially founded independent local Montreal (Canada) cassette-only record label Wreck Age Recordings (1994).
Wrote and performed numerous soundtrack works between 1993 to 2013 for independent local films, aborted projects, and rejected television serials. Most of these soundtracks are also out of print, the master tapes disappearing much like the projects they were associated with.
Recycling his musical sound into digital in 2012; performs un-announced and improvised live shows throughout 2012, including in the infamous "witch caves" of Salem, Massachusets in April 2012. Most performances recorded directly to digital, with eventual official releases on Wreck Age Recordings.
Portrayed the supporting role of "Moses" in the 2013 short film "First Night" (in post production as this is being written), as well as contributed over 75 minutes of soundtrack material for the film.
Often performed audio improvisations in alleyways of the general Montreal city, during the summer of 2013.
