This is where I will be posting all of the videos I’ve created myself.
Editing music and visual content and putting together videos and slideshows are some of my favourite things to work on. While a single image can speak volumes, a succession of images can tell infinite stories. Combine those with video, music and some stop motion – forget about it!
Charity work:
Recently I’ve had the pleasure of working with United Way British Columbia and the local United Way Central & Northern Vancouver Island branch on a variety of projects (2020-2022). These have included marketing material, informational videos and fundraising campaign videos that have been integral to the organizations’ fundraising. Here are just a few:
Working for Artists:
This is a demo reel I put together for a local adult comedian (2022). Andii provided the footage, and I put together the video, selecting and modifying graphics for the feel she was looking for. Heads up – this one is spicy and NSFW. But also extremely entertaining!
This kind of mini-doc is an introduction video to an exciting local choir that I worked with in 2019. I’ve since upgraded my equipment, but this gives you an idea of the sort of narrative I can put together. Almost all the photography and all the filming is done by me, while the music was provided by the choir and recorded by someone else.
News Videos:
This video took several months to shoot, and documents the making of a very unique surfboard from beginning to end (2018). It features a couple from Parksville on Vancouver Island. Check it out!
Here’s another video I took during my time as a Black Press reporter (2017-2018). This shows the release of an eagle from the North Island Wildlife Recovery Centre.
Creativity:
Here is something from my time in northern Alberta. During my first fall up north (in 2012), I decided to try my hand at doing a stop-motion video. So I decided to document my pumpkin carving, and put it to some creepy music. Here is the result.
