Fishing Begins

After graduating from MHCC on a Saturday, I began work on the following Monday. I lived in Adobe After Effects and Photoshop for the first week, creating a video branding package including an open, close, and lower thirds template for Fishwire.net. The second week (this week), I got to go salmon and sturgeon fishing, getting up early in the morning to shoot video on the river, beach, and ocean. It’s been a whirlwind of learning, creativity, and adventure! We couldn’t have asked for better weather.



The first content bit I created is online today, exclusive to Fishwire.net: http://bit.ly/OITMjO

Next week a new chapter starts with more involved content, and I’m really excited!

Truman Johnny is Online!

On Monday I finally got the last safety permission cleared to post Truman Johnny online! Finishing this project has been a whirlwind of pulling pieces together and working with a great network of people. From here I hope to pursue grant funding to expand and refine the project. But for now, enjoy my 8-minute college thesis documentary, Truman Johnny!

Flowers and Ducks and Such…

On Saturday I intended to chip away at ~60 hours worth of backlog, but after working in front of a screen all week (working full-time on After Effects is crazy fun, but hard on the eyes), I couldn’t resist going outside to brush up my camera skills and find something beautiful. On my way out the door, my little sister stopped me to show off her baby ducks, just born that morning. There went my afternoon. 🙂
