A few samples of our recent Video Projects.
Tucson Roller Derby
For three years we shot, organized, edited and produced video for the energetic and wonderful Tucson Roller Derby. We watched these gals go from a startup to a legitimate powerhouse, who became the first team to beat the league founders and seemingly invincible Texas team. It was a whole lot of fun and we really developed our shooting and editing chops, using two cameras to film and Final Cut Pro’s excellent multi-cam feature to edit. We’ve posted all these on Youtube for the league to promote on their website, so I collected them all together into this handy Youtube player. There are 12 videos total, and you can view thumbnails below the video when you mouseover, or click through them via the arrows on the inner sides of the player window.
Blackwell Report 002
We had some fun with this edition of the Blackwell Report. Let’s face it, a corporate newsletter for the publishing industry is not going to be the most exciting thing you might watch (or edit). Keeping this in mind we tried to inject some out-takes and humorous events that happened during filming with the well read folks at Blackwell.
Transceiver Cinco Pt. 2
This was part of a series of video backdrops created for the band Transceiver. the videos were played during live performances, and eventually released as a DVD for sale along wth their recordings. I shot the footage during Tucson’s Day of the Dead parade, and I felt it was a great backdrop for this trippy tune.
Fighting 501rst
The Fighting 501rst are a bunch of large hearted people who dress up in home made Star Wars costumes to visit sick children. While they were on tour promoting their documentary film I happened to see them downtown, and thought it would be interesting to film them interacting in an everyday scenario. I edited the piece down into a short music video which they have contacted me to use in their next production.
Monster Truck Derby
This was a short piece of footage I edited together for testing different compression results of the online video services. I had never been to a Monster Truck event before, and I’m not likely sure I will return. It’s one of those things you probably should see up close some time though.
