Found Causes "Special Care"

,

Hooping It Up with Oklahoma Video Production

I edited this segment for our show Found Causes. Nick Collison of the Oklahoma City Thunder finds his cause at a school for children with special needs.

Special Care is a day care center that focuses on serving children with special needs. They have before and after school programs. One unique aspect of their program is they mix both special needs children with kids who do not need special care. The effect is broaden the horizons for all the children in the program. Nick Collison befriended a teenager with an amazing basketball ability and he is now Nick's number one fan.

Found Causes "Sunset Therapeutic Riding Center"

Riding Off Into the Sunset with Oklahoma Video Production

This is from one of our recent episodes of Found Causes.  I did the cinematography for the opening of the piece and the color grading for the whole piece.

Sunset TRC utilizes horses to provide therapy for children with autism and physical handicaps. The horses's natural movements are great for children with mobility issues as the muscle movements of the horse help exercise the muscles in the kids. For kids with autism, it offers them a chance to communicate and participate in ways other therapies cannot.

I also got to run multiple cameras at once:

2012 Demo Reel

, ,

Jammed Pack with Oklahoma Video Production!

My 2012 demo reel.  Cut in FCP X with an assist from FCP 7 & Magic Bullet Looks 2.0. There was a great step forward in my professional work that I'm pleased with. I also experimented with split screens and split screen transitions that I eventually started to apply to other work. Overall, 2012 was a great year. I did a lot of work for Grapevine Media and a fair amount of stuff on my own. I really think my skills and abilities increased over the course of the year and gave me the confidence that I had, in fact, chosen the right career. Project included:

Salazar Hail Spring 2012

Stormin' Up Some Oklahoma Video Production!

Salazar Roofing "Hail" Spring 2012 - Salazar wanted Grapevine Media to do a new spot to air during Thunder playoff games that touched on the worries of Oklahoma home owners and spring hail storms.  I did the main edit. James did a great job on adding the lighting and storm effects.

Marketini Awards 2012 "Mad Men"

,

Suave Oklahoma Video Production

This was a super fun piece to work on. Grapevine got a call from the Oklahoma City chapter of the American Marketing Association wanting us to do a creative piece to open up the first annual Marketini Awards.  With a '60s theme already selected for the ceremony, a Mad Men inspired riff was a natural choice.

Directed by James Price.

Edited by Patrick Kirk.

Kelley Jewelers

Shiny and sparkly Oklahoma video production. Grapevine Media did these spots with Kelley Jewelers of Weatherford, OK.  I did the color correction & grading in Final Cut Pro X and Magic Bullet Looks 2.0.

Kelley Jewelers "Memories" - The idea for "Memories" was to fade the colors a bit and shift them to give a slight '70s feel as if it were a memory being remembered.

Kelley Jewelers "Diamonds" - In this spot, we decided to take out some of the saturation, specifically the reds, and put a bit of diffuse look on the image.

Liberty Minded Teaser

, , , ,

Rallying for Oklahoma Video Production

This is a quick teaser trailer I put together for a promo I'm making for Liberty Minded, a local libertarian think tank in Oklahoma City. I had wanted to do some sort of promo piece for an organization for some time. When I found out the day before that there was a Ron Paul rally on the capital steps and they would all be there, I threw caution to the wind and got them all together to make this video. I'm really a happy with the way i turned out. Especially with all the audio challenges we faced. We spent most of the shoot worried security would come to shut us down, but we were never bothered.

A Winter's Solace

Basically, it's dogs playing in snow...

 A quick project based on the fact there was snow on the ground.  Shot on the HMC-40, edited in FCP7, and color in Magic Bullet Looks.

Castrol Spec Spot

,

From the Archives:

 My first attempt at a true Spec Spot for my directing reel and a chance to learn my camera a little better.  The original idea was for the piece to play out more like a horror story, but that didn't work so, I came up with the sentimental copy in post.
