I first started working in video in 1986. From 1992 to 1998 I worked as a videographer in television news and it was in that challenging environment I learned the craft of visual story telling. Since 1998 I have applied that knowledge in the world of industrial communications and advertising. I am equally comfortable working behind the camera or working behind the cameraman. Similarly, I possess strong editing capabilities but can also direct the efforts of a production staff. Except where otherwise noted, the examples below reflect my work both as a DP and Editor. As a director and producer I have developed an extensive network of professional resources that allow me to scale my production operation to meet the needs of local, state and regional clients.

  • Panasonic P2 & Sony F3 Camera Systems
  • Adobe Premiere
  • Adobe After Effects
  • Adobe Encore

30 second commercial promoting short ER wait times at Lake City Hospital. I acted as director for for the shoot and edited the spot in Adobe After Effects. Spot was shot on Panasonic HVX200 with a P+S Technik Mini35 lens adapter and a set of Zeiss Super Speed prime lenses. The emergency entrance sign above the ambulance at 0:12 was badly damaged and stained. I repaired the damage in Photoshop and then rotoscoped it in behind the ambulance and used blurring effects to simulate the rack-focus as it is revealed.

About this video.

Client needed a commercial that would promote his business and stand out from the crowd. I suggested a spot that illustrated the passionate relationship one can have with one's kitchen and wrote the script that was used in the pitch. I shot the in-store footage and assembled all the elements in Adobe After Effects.

About this video.

Client needed a commercial that would promote his business and stand out from the crowd. I suggested this blend of cartoon caricature and full motion video. After selling the concept I wrote the lyrics for the song to the tune of 'Turkey in the Straw' and contracted a vendor to create the music bed. I shot backplates for each scene and hired an animator to create the character animations. I assembled all the elements in Adobe After Effects. The 3D logo was also created in After Effects using the Zaxwerks Plugin.
