Electronic Field Production (News Story)

I've no idea why I forgot to post this from the previous quarter, but this was my (and Sean Murphy's) final project for the classes Field Shooting/Lighting and Digital Editing. It's a news story, or rather a human interest story, classified as an Electronic Field Production.  The topic is the effect that differing types of venues have on local musicians, whether positively or negatively.  Production-wise, we got a bit all over the place with the lighting: from it being a bit too dark with the Maralie Armstrong segment, to it being like an Easy Bake Oven for Chrstian Staton. There are a few other issues as well, but overall, I think it came out well for our first attempt at such a thing.

Dancing Beer Bottles

An After Effects exercise.  I stole the general idea, and the music from the tutorial, from which I learned how to do it, but the final sound FX are mine, and of course I did all the animation, etc.  I'm only disappointed because I wasn't able to figure out how to make proper shadows cast upon the dance floor.
