IT’S ALL ABOUT TELLING A STORY.
Working in the video production industry for over a decade has provided me with the many skills of the trade, and in that time I have had wonderful opportunities to tell many different stories.
Be it Documentary, Feature, Commercial, or Corporate, there is always something to be said.
LOOK, AN EDIT.
Telling stories is my passion. it puts a new perspective on the world around you.
This example was a piece of content that was created to highlight the specifications and features of an updated product for Cat & Cloud.
This tool was designed with precision, and the video for it needed to fell just as good.
In this example I Document and share a very personal story about and experience I had while visiting coffee producers in Honduras.
my goal was to create an engaging story that captivated the audience, while being true to the experience that I had
Here’s one example of work I did for The Drone Racing League. In this feature I was able to tell a human story. One that is rarely seen during the otherwise fast paced, competitive action of the show.
In this feature it was my intention to give a break to the viewer, and shine a light on the human side of the pilots.
LOOK, SOME GRAPHICS.
use movement to communicate.
good communication is necessary. So we use our words and pictures to help share the ideas in our heads, but sometimes that’s not enough. That’s where movement comes in.
I love being able to bring things to life this way. The Possibilities literally are endless.
Some times you need to express things that you can’t film. That’s where motion graphics come in. Pushing pixels to create a whole world, bring a brand to life, or simply show important information. In this example I use variety of tools to do all these things.
Give something a little motion, and suddenly everything changes
Graphics is more than just creating the whole image. It helps to convey information.
In these short product highlights, I used motion graphics to help inform guests to the most important information around new coffees that were going on sale at Cat & Cloud.
Ultimately this quick engaging video helped to share the information in a much more natural way.
On some occasions you can just have fun.
This social post gets me every time I watch it.
