Just a short test. Tried to add a photo but nothing came up. 7th attempt.

My fourth video for the Nine Inch Nails “Ghosts” video project. I did this video in the style I was taught back in my old corporate, “training video” days. What you do is: set up an interview shot, babble on and on about something, then assemble a story out of the sound bites, then edit it together and cover up any mistakes with b-roll.

I was able to finally shoot the quality I wanted (the secret: ambient daylight!), and pace it the way I wanted, and shoot at the 16:9 ratio I wanted (when exporting the final version, type in the ratio as 320×180 pixels). This video took two weekends to shoot but I probably could have done it all in one day if I had a person to help me. Especially when I was destroying the stereo. I didn’t get smash up the laptop either, and I was hoping to burn my shirt and hat. Oh well. Watch my 5 Ghosts I and 6 Ghosts I by clicking here.

This is my second attempt to video something for the Nine Inch Nails “Ghosts” video project. I choose the fourth song because it matches the video we shot. This is kinda backwards to me - I think the music ought to inspire the visuals. But I’m open to trying things out. My actor is Jessie Brogan who works downstairs from me in downtown. I made her hold the camera so I just sat around “directing” - it was pretty fun that day. Watch.

Trent Reznor (Nine Inch Nails) is asking for video for his new album Ghosts. You can upload it to his group on YouTube. This was actually my third attempt, but it’s the second song. I shot this on a Panasonic GS 500 MiniDV and edited it in iMovie. I shot it 16:9 ratio but somewhere I screwed it up and it’s slightly off. Click here!

I was surfing YouTube last week and found Trent Reznor (Nine Inch Nails) asking for video for his new album Ghosts. I was able to put together something and post it up here on YouTube, I shot this on a Canon XLS MiniDV and edited it in iMovie.

Here’s the first draft of an annual report for Interfaith Ministries. Not bad. Will be revising it I’m sure - that is, if they pick this layout

Hey everyone,

I went ahead and bought an Airport card on a whim. So that means I can drag the lappy all over town with me. Expect more posts from now on!

I managed to upload some images into Flickr - this way you can see the images a bit better. Follow this link to see the slideshow of my graphic design layouts.
