Watch the new Jelilu video!

I’ve just finished this marketing video for friend and client Jesse Torgerson’s Jelilu psychodrama process entitled Jelilu: Performance Art From Life.

The Bear Show!

Today I hung out with Jen Simmons. Follow us as we take her awesome dog, Bear, for a walk. I decided it was high time to do a real “navlopomoish” video. Mentioned: David Howell, Clintus McGintus, Yackpacking on Rupert’s site, and why dogs don’t Twitter.

Make Believe

This mashup video is from a sophomore college class in 2003. I’m going to have to re-master it one of these days (some of it uses VHS source) and re-scan the Sandman stills–apologies; they can be hard to read at times.

Despite this, it’s still one of the things I’ve done that I’m most proud of. There’s a short essay (Word doc) that goes along with it, if you’re so inclined.

Autumnal


Battlestar America

To further illustrate what a huge geek I am. This is more of a brainstorm video, a sketch of an idea of a thought. Being fast-and-furious navlopomo, I don’t have the time to do more right now.

Context: Back in the beginning of 2007, the Sci-Fi Channel began a video “contest”, giving viewers high-quality SFX, music and b-roll video clips from the show Battlestar: Galactica (one of my favorite shows right now). Then they were to shoot their own footage and create a short video taking place inside that universe. I was going to do this but never got around to it.

I never was good at always following the rules.

Waking Up

“The Park” by Feist is what I wake up to each morning on my CD player/alarm clock. I think it’s a beautiful song, so I thought I’d share.

Next Door

Guess the neighbors are having some roofing done.

my workspace, for rupert

In response to Rupert’s call for more desks! Crappy encode in the interest of time. I also don’t usually feel comfortable making these types of videos, but everyone else is really putting themselves out there. This is no time to be shy, it seems.
