Jon Lajoie Everyday Normal Guy

Jon Lajoie, very very funny comedian with some really funny, impressive songs. This was an interview/session we did with him at Carolines Comedy Club in NYC. He was nice enough to do some acoustic versions of some of his more famous songs. Good times. All shot on the Sony Z1U and edited with Final Cut Studio Pro.  I love the way he f**ks up and starts over…he makes it just seem normal, like an everyday normal guy.

Batman Red Carpet

This was the red carpet event for the Batman, the Dark Knight movie in NYC. This was a lot of fun but also stressful. Its hard to stay in the one little spot they give you to stand in. Everyone was super nice tho especially since they have to answer the same questions over and over. I edited this with Final Cut and I shot it with the Sony Z1U.

 

DVD Menu Animation

This is a splash screen/menu animation I made for my own DVD show reel. I made the graphics using Photoshop and After FX. I also made the music and sound FX using ProTools. I had After FX tie that animation to the sound, that’s how and why it all looks like it’s synced together. I took the DLP and flipped it, then put a dark layer over it and changed the opacity to something like 30% to give that reflection look on the bottom.

Young Entrepreneur’s

youngEntrepreneures

This was a video I produced and edited. The client was IEEE and Microsoft. We wanted to make a video about what it takes to be a young entrepreneur in today’s marketplace. We interviewed 3 different people with different backgrounds. All of them gave thier insight to what is needed for today’s young people to make it in business. A professor, 2 young people who started their own tech company and a CEO of a Silicon Valley company. I did the editing and all the graphic work. I also wrote the VO script and produced this.

Magic Buds Infomercial

Video for the infomercial for Jakks Pacific Magic Buds. Video edited and graphic work done in February 2011. The graphic design was done with Illustrator and the touch up of the buds (they all looked like crap) was done with Photoshop. The video was all edited with Final Cut Pro.

 

 

The Veronicas

Veronicas   - Untouched live at UGO. This was part of the UGO Raw series. I shot this and I did the interview, that’s on another clip on this site, but, this was cool. I did this with 2 Z1Us and a couple of lavs, and hand-held’s, strategically placed that gave me a sound I could use and work with. I liked these girls, and their band. They were all really nice people.

UGO Sizzle

This was a quick sizzle reel that I did for the sales team at UGO. I made all the screen grabs for the website shots. I made all the opening titles too. This was a process. We had a LOT of footage and a lot to show. I never like “webassodes” that are longer than 2.5 min. It just dosen’t make sense. In this case, there was just too much to show. Anyway, I like the way it came out. I like the choice of music, picked by me. I didnt have a lot to choose from. But I am really happy how this came out and I think it looks great.

Motion Graphic Work

Here are some titles and motion graphic work I have done. This was an IEEE sponsored event that took place in NJ in October 2011. I edited all the speeches and created the whole package for this. I also, shot the whole show using the Sony Z1U.  There is no audio for this file.

 

Sasha Grey Interview

Niiiice. Sasha. What can I say. This was shot at the AVN awards show in Las Vegas. Tommy Gunn, a good friend, conducted all the interviews for us. This was part of a series we did for UGO. The video’s and interviews came out awesome. It was a great time. All of this was edited with Final Cut Pro.

MTV Video Movie Awards Red Carpet

Edited by me, and done for UGO. This was the red carpet event for the MTV Movie awards in 2009. We got a lot of footage and did a lot of interviews. I think we took all the interviews and made them into individual clips. I can’t remember. Anyway. I edited this with Final Cut Pro.
