Since virtually everything I've been working on lately is confidential, or something that my position  in the production was not directly involved with either shooting and/or editing, I either am not permitted to post it, or it wouldn't be reflecting any of my personal skills. So I'll just post a little video I did for fun instead.


As always, be sure to click on the title in the upper left to open the video in a new page and from there you can click on the icon in the lower right to go full screen. Turn it up!

Mighty W.O.R.R.M. advertisement

This is a video I created, as an afterthought, from an assignment in my Oral Communications class at New England Institute of Technology.

The assignment was a 4-5 minute commercial, of an imaginary product or service, following two sets of rules which make up an effective advertisement:  Monroe's Motivated Sequence (attention, need, satisfaction, visualization, action); and Maslow's Hierarchy of Needs (physical, safety, belonging, esteem, self-actualization).

We were to deliver this fake ad in front of the classroom.  The original lasted a full 5 minutes, but for the sake of the short-attention-span folks who typically roam the internet, I've reduced it to 4 minutes.

The script, the placards with the images of the people, the sock puppet, and the flashing pen were all used in the live presentation. The music is public domain from Muse Open.

Instructional Video Exercise

Dylan Titus and I created this instructional video, for the class Corporate Media -- an instructional video, on the topic of "How to Entertain Guests in Your Home".
The cheesy green screen "glow" was done intentionally, for added comic effect, though we forgot to apply it properly to the final appearance of Mr Sock.
