    WEATHERING DISASTER OKLAHOMA PROMO 1

    Promo I wrote and created for a series shown on the Weather Channel sponsored by Farmers Insurance in which I edited half of the episodes.

    Tasked with creating a promo for the John Tesh special utilizing the music and verbage from the special. Fusing 3 different musical numbers together and isolating soundbites from throughout the special, I was able to create a seamless promo that makes it sound like he created a specific VO for the promo itself.

    Created promotional video of NFL Alumni annual golf fundraiser event featuring sports alumni from various worlds of sport participating. Also assisted in shooting footage as well.

    WInner of over 21 awards, I was video editor and everything post-production on this film including, not limited to: graphic design, motion design, special effects, after effects, sound design, audio mixing, music editing, color correction/grading, and more.

    Also a multiple award winner, this project was very unique in that I was given the exported file and tasked with recreating the entire edit frame by frame to every sound edit made prior from scratch from all the raw footage, sound and other elements used. After accomplishing that, future edits/tweaking were made into the final product.
