Live at Five Intro

This is the intro I created for our Live at Five newscasts. It is about a 10 second intro with a minute of background music.

Washing the Dishes

The assignment for this piece was to shoot a piece that involved washing the dishes.  The catch was I couldn't cut any voiceover so all the narration had to be done through interviews.  What I came up with was a little glimpse into the dish situation among my roommates.

CBS Morning News Promo

This was just a little class project we did to work on promotion. My group was assigned to promote a morning news show on CBS. Our show had a very strong older viewership and the show needed to attract younger viewers. This is our 30 second spot that we came up with in a 2 hour time period.

Van de Kamp's Commercial

This is another commercial spot I put together, but this time I wrote the spot, shot the footage, edit the piece, and cut the voiceover.  

Gull Boats Commercial

This little piece of video was an editing assignment for a class.  The objective was to take a bunch of footage that was shot for this company and produce a 30 second commercial for them.  I didn't shoot any of the footage, but I am responsible for the editing and the voiceover.

Freedom of Speech PSA

This is a Public Service Announcement on the issue of free speech that I shot.  This was my first major project of the year for class, and it was actually entered in a couple national PSA contests.
