Vitamin Product Video
This video was produced to be part of a product informational video library about nutritional supplements.

Academic Tutorial Video
Teaching within the Gavilan College Digital Media Department, I have created over 100+ video tutorial lessons Typically edited down from longer lectures, to show core techniques to students for a specific curriculum. This particular video is a painting tutorial for Photoshop students. Combined with hybrid teaching and classroom set-ups these are focused on screen share & instructor lectures. These videos are part of an academic video tutorial library and are only shared with students.

Product Video for Etsy Store
This is a short 35 second video for an etsy store, the goal being to showcase how the visual art designs in the store are created. Etsy Seller's Formatting limited the length of this to 35 seconds for e-commerce related purposes. The question became what was most important to show in 35 seconds or less?
Intro Animation Clip
This is a short 10 second video intro motion graphic animation that I made to put in the beginning of dozens of digital media tutorial videos. Created with Adobe After-Effects.
Wedding Photography Slideshow
One of dozens (and dozens) of videos, having worked as a photographer for many years, these videos function as a digital album momento. Not to be confused with the Videography Wedding Video (which I can't usually share).
Thanks for looking through this folkio collection of videos clips. This is just a small sampling of the work I have created using photogaphy, videography and motion graphics to communicate messages for various organizations, academic institutions, families and small businesses.
As a photographer / videographer and visual designer, I am skilled with many aspects of production, from script-writing, to lighting, composing a shot using the best cinenmatography visual techniques and adding in motion graphics as needed.
