Homeward // Promo

Homeward of Virginia (homewardva.org) has an annual event at the Greater Richmond Convention Center called “Project Homeless Connect.” They wanted footage from the event to be used in a video to promote their organization.—I shot all the interviews and b-roll on a Panasonic GH1 with stock zoom lens. The audio was all captured to a [...]

My dear friend Jacobi has got quite the talent.  Check out this video he shot & edited for my birthday.  I hope it encourages you like it did me.

Showcase: “Apricot”

When you have few words surrounded by lots of silence, your mind will have a tendency to wander about.  The creators of this film lead you about on a leash so that you “get it.”

Sal + Alissa // Teaser

Sal & Alissa got married.  They wanted me to show up with a video camera.  Their magic happened, and now it’s my turn.
The edit is always the hardest part of the whole project… there’s so much footage to review and stack into my brain, labeling this, cutting that.
It takes a while to get a project [...]

Showcase: “What is That”

I like how the old man gets the one-up on his son.  This is beautiful.  The CG bird could’ve been a bit better, but all-in-all, this a very nice.

Showcase: The Archive

Here’s a beautiful short film by Sean Dunne.  It’s called “The Archive”.  Paul Mawhinney is a man who’s devoted his entire life to music.  In fact, he has the largest record collection in the world, estimated to be worth over $50 million.
The coloring is superb and I love the minimalistic camera shots.  Most of them [...]

Melinda + Jason // Save the Date

Melinda came to me to have me do a film of their wedding. She has a website for the wedding and I thought it would be fun to make a “Save the Date” video for her & Jason.
This is a short story of how they met. I asked Melinda what song she would like for [...]

7 Cities Ballroom – Dance Showcase // Event Demo

This is the latest project I’ve been working on.  It’s for a group called 7 Cities Ballroom. It was their annual dance showcase. They like to take a video of the event for the students, for which they usually just stick a camera on a tripod. This time around they decided to go [...]

This is such beautiful camera work.  Vincent Laforet got ahold of a 5DmkII and went at it.  He uses a few different techniques in shooting and post to make everything look so alive.  I love it!

Showcase: Sofia’s People

Showcase: Sofia’s People

This was shot on a Canon 5D Mark II using a single prime lens (Zeiss 50mm f1.4).  There’s no lighting, no grading, and it’s all hand-held.  It shows you the importance of composition in shooting over fancy zooms and dolly moves.  I love it… I would marry it.
