Drop Those Pounds - Michelle

This was an event for WeightWise of San Antonio where patients commemorated and celebrated their weight loss by dropping the equivalent amount of weight off of an elevated lift. Very symbolic and emotional experience for the participants.

I created the Drop Those Pounds logo in Photoshop. I did the opening graphic of the falling logo with a combination of Strata 3D CX and Apple Motion. The animated logo at the end was created in Motion also. Edited in multicam mode in FCP, lower third graphics in Motion.

Rocky & Leslee Wedding Film

I had the pleasure of capturing these priceless memories for our good friends Rocky and Leslee, which was a challenge since Abbie and I were actually in the wedding. But, it was a lot of fun. I love how the red fruit punch just pops.

"This City is Going on a Diet!"

We had Mayor Cornett come into Foundation where we set up and lit a green screen large enough for him to "walk" onto the screen. This video was originally shot as an overlay for www.okcmillion.com and is still in use there. I took that same video with alpha channel into Apple Motion and added all of the background graphics, music, etc. The mayor is a former news anchor and a real pro on camera, just hit record and let him go to work. Great talent in front of the camera makes my job much easier behind the camera.

Upside Down

I thought I would shoot off a roll of film on our last zoo adventure. It was lots of fun to watch the kids' faces and see their excitement and curiosity. As you can see at the end, they weren't exactly ready to leave.

Shot in super 8. Edited in FCP, effx in Motion. Song is "Upside Down" by Jack Johnson off of the Curious George soundtrack.

Sharing

As a creative professional, a goal is being able to share my finished creations with others. I hope to use this blog as an outlet to share my work, which I would like to consider a blend of creativity and technical skill, and finds it's being through various outlets.
