Here are a couple of videos I produced to accompany stories for the Emerald Coast Magazine website. The footage in these videos were shot by Scott Holstein. I edited them and did final post production.
Pull Up Banner Design
Last year I was approached about designing a pull up banner for a local church’s missions ministry. Below is the result.
More Magazine Promo Videos
I have produced some more promo videos for Tallahassee, Emerald Coast and 850 Business Magazines. Here is the latest set:
Interview with the Author of ‘Make Art Make Money: Lessons from Jim Henson on Fueling Your Creative Career’
I’ve mentioned my Nerd Lunch projects here some in the past, but haven’t brought it up too much unless it was specifically to showcase what I was working on. However, a new episode of the podcast has been released that I think people who frequent this blog might enjoy. I was contacted by Elizabeth Hyde Stevens, the author of Make Art Make Money: Lessons from Jim Henson on Fueling Your Creative Career, and I was asked to review her book and offer a blurb for use on the Amazon page. I did and found the book to be worthy of this blurb:
“When someone asks me who would I have dinner with if I could choose any person, dead or alive, my answer is always Jim Henson. Unfortunately, that’s never going to happen. This book feels like it is the next best thing. Liz Stevens has done a remarkable job at deconstructing the life and work of Henson in a way that thoroughly explains what made him a successful artist. Just like a meal spent with Henson would be life-changing, this book opens up the reader to ways of acting and thinking, as modeled by Henson, that will surely aid in the growth of one’s artistic goals. Stevens impressively points out threads that appear all the way through Henson’s entire body of work illustrating the struggle that exists between art and business…and more importantly, how the two can live in harmony.” —CT, Nerd Lunch
Elizabeth had written an article about two years ago about the Muppets in a post-Henson world and I thought the piece was brilliant and was so glad to see she had done more in regards to the Muppets. After reading the book, I thought she would be a great guest for the podcast and she proved me right. We had about a 45 minute conversation about the book, our creative struggles and the Muppets.

Tallahassee Magazine, Sep/Oct Videos
Another new issue of Tallahassee Magazine has come out and I have put together a few bonus videos for this issue as well. All four videos were shot by Scott Holstein, but I did all the post production/editing on them.
Magazine Promo Videos
Below are a few promotional videos that I created to promote new issues of the Rowland Publishing titles. Each video gives a few highlights of what the content will be in the magazine and teases with headlines and photos. The videos are posted to the social media accounts and blogs of the magazines.
The videos were created using Adobe After Effects and Adobe Premiere.
Tallahassee Magazine Videos, part 2
Yesterday, I mentioned the Tallahassee Magazine online content videos I have been producing. Below are the videos produced for the July/August issue. The first was shot by Scott Holstein. I did the motion graphics on the second and the editing for both.
Tallahassee Magazine Videos
I’ve been producing bonus content for Tallahassee Magazine’s website. The videos below were shot by Lawrence Davidson, Laura Patrick and Scott Holstein (respectively) and I did the post-production and editing on them. These were all for the March/April issue. I’ll post the July/August videos tomorrow.
Academic Library Presentations
In the Fall of 2012, I was applying for jobs at academic libraries. I managed to be fortunate enough to be asked to interview and present at two institutions. In late August of 2012, I gave a presentation at FAMU about emerging technologies in libraries. Then in December of 2012, I interviewed and presented at Notre Dame on designing web-based library services in academic libraries. Neither position wound up working out, but they were great experiences.
I have uploaded my slides to SlideShare and present them here.
Exploring the Emerging Technologies/Systems Librarians Role in an Academic Library
Starring Role in a Commercial
Last year I had the opportunity to have a bit part in a commercial for Awards4U in Tallahassee. I also helped produce the commercial. I play the part of the coach.
