Denver Open Media's First Friday
During my internship at Denver Open Media, I edited past First Fridays and posted the entire show on Denver Open Media's website. I picked "selects" and edited them into a sequence that could be uploaded on YouTube.
For 2009's First Fridays, I volunteered for the role of production coordinator and floor manager for all but one First Friday; for the First Friday where I was not production coordinator or floor manager, I was assistant director. The following are among several First Friday selects that I have edited (June 2008, August 2008, October 2008).
VlogTV at Denver Open Media
Starting in winter of 2008, I began volunteering in the control room for VlogTV, a weekly call-in show where people request their favorite original/non-copywritten online videos to air on live television. My usual duties include stage set-up, answering calls, and operating the sound board during the show.
Field Production and Video Editing (DMST 3215)
This was the final project for the class. Each student wrote a treatment for their own subvertisement idea and submitted it for review by the entire class. Through class vote, several ideas were picked, and my idea was one of those selected. My video subverts the claim by Jack Thompson, an attorney, that video games drives people to do violent acts. The subvertisements had to be 30 seconds, no more and no less.
This assignment was assigned for the class to become familiar with editing our own footage in Final Cut Pro. The topic of the montage that the class was assigned was "grace," and some of the requirements were to use a transition other than the default cross dissolve, to manipulate playback speed in the motion tab, to use a minimum number of subjects and shots, and to make the video exactly two minutes long.
Intro to 3D Modeling and Animation
This was the final project for the class. We covered the very basics of animating objects in 3ds Max in the last third of the class. Though the class didn't have as much time to complete the project as the instructor would have liked us to have, it was still a fun project to do and the results were impressive.
