The Creation of The Magic Flute – Ballet Austin
I produced this behind the scenes look at the creation of Ballet Austin's upcoming production of The Magic Flute. To say that it's ambitious of them to take on this opera is an understatement. With the backing of the Austin Symphony and the aid of giant shadow puppets, Stephen Mills and company have turned an 18th century Mozart masterpiece into →
Brand Identity Project
http://vimeo.com/19846974 I worked with Sparksight, a great local company, on this brand identity project for one of their clients. They provided me with the voice over track and music, and I created the video from the ground up using stock photos and some original digital creations.

The Austin Supper Club
I've always loved cooking shows. I used to watch Julia Child and Jacques Pépin on PBS when I was a kid. When I was in high school, my then girlfriend (now wife) used to watch rising stars like Emeril Lagasse and Ming Tsai on the Food Network after school. And now, I can't seem to go a →

Flashback – Austin City Limits
I was up late this past Friday night, and flipped on the TV looking for something to entertain me for a little while before I hit the sack. I was expecting the usual late night fare of kitchen-gadget infomercials, so I was pleasantly surprised when I landed on KLRU-TV and saw they were rerunning an episode of Austin City Limits →
Jon and Connolly’s Wedding
Jon and Connolly (known collectively - and quite adorably - as "Jonnolly") had a beautiful wedding on June 19, 2010 and I was fortunate enough to record it for them. In addition to their ceremony and reception videos, I edited together a Cinematic Trailer of their special day.
