    uniE608 Maximation.ca – Promotional Video
    Hello friends and potential employers. This was the first project that I completed for my Introduction to Video Editing course at OCAD University. After going over the guidelines for the assignment, I got the idea to turn this project into a self-promotional advertisement for my 3D Artist website, Maximation.ca. Apart from a few free-use clips provided by my course instructor, Otino Corsano, all of the footage you see here is from various 3d art projects that I've worked on over the years, showcasing what I consider to be some of my best work. video animator videoeditor advert
    uniE608 The Wilds of Pointe au Baril – Slideshow
    This was the second project that I completed for my Introduction to Video Editing course at OCAD University. I decided to have some fun with this one and made a little slideshow showcasing my appreciation for the natural world; specifically, the archipelago of Pointe au Baril, Georgian Bay, Ontario. My family owns a small cottage up there that we visit during the summer months and the island has its own little ecosystem of animals and insects. The photographs were all taken by me over the years and they're all animals that can be found on our island. I would have included more, but I needed this video to be under two minutes long. video videoeditor
    uniE608 Interview with Nancy Hallas – Visual & Textile Artist
    This was the third project that I completed for my Introduction to Video Editing course at OCAD University. This is an artist interview with my mother, Nancy Hallas, about her quilts, the techniques of her craft and some of the pieces that she's entered in art shows over the past few years. Apart from a few still images from the Orillia Museum of Art & History and a short clip of a salamander, all of the images here are of my mom’s original artwork, while the footage for this video was filmed with the help of my father, Rick Leroux. video explainervideo filmdirector videoeditor
    uniE608 Cactus Swing – Fan-Made Music Video
    This was the fourth and final project that I completed for my Introduction to Video Editing course at OCAD University. For our final assignment, we each had to create a music video under four minutes long and the song that I chose was Cactus Swing by the Great Western Orchestra; an old favourite of mine. Similar to my slideshow from earlier in the semester, this music video mainly consists of different clips of animals and landscapes of the Sonoran Desert, with added sound effects from certain animals to enhance the audio. This was probably my favourite project during the course and I had a lot of fun putting this thing together. Honestly, the hardest part was picking out the footage that fit best with the lyrics and melody of the song. After that was done, everything else came along fairly easy. video videoeditor musicvideo
