Class - SoFA: Priceless WINNER - NATPE 2003 Student Production Award - 2nd Place NATPE Press Release 6-12-03 NATPE Educational Foundation This 30 second spot was
created as our final project for Video Tools. I wanted to do something
different, so I thought it would be cool to recreate the shaking of hands
with JFK in Forrest Gump. However, it needed to be a commercial, so the
Priceless ads seemed to be the best solution. We shot on DVcam,
and composited the JFK scene using After Effects 5. The
project was completed by Steve Formel and I on the school's new dual-800mhz
G4's with Final Cut Pro 2. It took seven long nights of compositing to
complete. After that was done, I sat on it for a year, and then spent
another five nights cleaning it up so even Industrial Light and Magic would
be impressed. ILM hasn't seen it yet, but NATPE thought it was good enough
to award it second place. |

Shot on Kodak's New Vision2 500T (7218) stock on an Arri SR2 with the help of camera crew: Drew Suppa, Cat Angst, and Dan Swinton. This project was by far the most challenging films I've ever done, but it came out better than I could have ever possible imagined. A definite must see.

Crack Addict Dog My final Intro to 3D Modeling Project. We had to create a character and an environment for the character. In addition to that, we had to pose the character, in three different ways to show his moods/personality. I used Maya 4.0 Unlimited, and am quite please with the way it came out. So pleased, in fact, I bought http://www.crackaddictdog.com. Check it out... They're pretty hysterical. |

Digital Compositing
Class - SoFA: Listerine (Fresh
Breath) AKA "Too Many Vosbury's". I shot this project by myself in 2 hours in the middle of crunch week, using the Sony DSR-300 and properly lit green screen. I used After Effects 5 and Primatte to do the compositing. It was a lot of fun to shoot and edit, but I never thought I'd ever have to calculate the physics of a coconut for a film project. Go figure. The timing on everything was the hardest to get down, especially by myself. The whole thing's a little bizarre, but I think the end product is worth it. Dur: 1:00 |

16mm Sync Class - Muffin I decided to keep a running log of my class because it's going to take me an entire quarter to finish this project. I came up with the script one weekend and revised it about seven times until I finally got what I wanted. We shot on Sunday, Sept 30th 2001, at my Aunt's beautiful house in Rochester NY. I think I've spent about $300 on this shoot and it might hit $500 after processing and my work print. |

Spring Project #3 - Studio Project - Night Fishing This was a project that half my class work on. The idea was to learn how to do a process shot. Four short films were created from the freshman film students, and our film class definitely had higher production value, and a better story. Dur: 3:30 |

Winter Project #1 - Gunsmoke An editing project of footage from the television series "Gunsmoke" (1955-1975). Kind of a western meets Matrix kind of thing going on here. Not extremely funny, but fun to watch. |

| Fall Project #3 - Bear A short story about a young boy who thinks he's really a bear. Probably one of my favorite, and most absurd projects. It took two days of shooting with the Bolex 16mm camera, using Kodak 7250 Color Reversal Film, and 7278 Black and White Reversal Film. Edited on film, with a narrative soundtrack. |
