About Colin

Colin has loved music ever since his introduction to piano at the age of 6 and cello at 11. He produced his first album as a high school sophomore in 2002 under the pseudonym "Xolin" (pronounced ZOL-in). Since then, Colin has self-produced 6 additional albums.

After graduating from high school in 2005, Colin lived with a host family in Costa Rica while volunteering at a butterfly farm from February to August 2006. Within the first three months of total immersion, he was conversationally fluent in Spanish.

While attending Columbia College Chicago, Colin acquired a myriad of audio skills, including microphone placement and effective music mixing. Thanks to a summer internship with a local film company, he also discovered a passion for film sound, both location and post.

Film (short) by Michael L. Harris (Drama and Family) Sound department, Composer, Editor, Cinematographer Three boys, three different cultures, three different classes...one journey for discovery. 'Samuel - A Journey of Discovery' is a trilogy of short films that explore the same search for discovery of life's spiritual significance from the prospective of these three diverse youth. Through their differences, we recognize that desire within each of us to find meaning and significance in a world of disorder and disappointment. 'Samuel' draws meaning and significance from three diverse holy books: The Bible, The Book of Mormon and the Qur'an' an, and draws on the writings of Oglala Sioux holy man Black Elk to solidify its message that we are truly all 'children of one great father and one great mother.' Be a part of Samuel's Journey...a Journey of Discovery. Written by Anonymous
Unto All Nations (2010)
Film (short) by Michael L. Harris (Drama) Sound department, Editor, Camera and Electrical Department Samuel, an Islamic youth discovers an enlightenment and understanding apart from his upbringing. Steeped in the rote culture of tradition, Samuel has performed a worship of practice more than presence. Now he must choose between where his heart leads and what he has become. Unto All Nations employs vivid visual imagery in its depiction of Samuel's journey...the moment of recognition, the transformation of rebirth, and a return to Eden. Samuel gains a testimony of Allah's (God's) saving and redemptive power to all men, in their own language, and in relationship to their own understanding. Samuel learns that God reaches all men in a way that is familiar and affirming to them, and HE leads them into HIS understanding as they surrender to HIS will. Written by Anonymous
