Me on MSNBC – The video

w00t!

Tech Check Daily portfolio show

I feel like this show was one of the shows that went off without a hitch. Sure, it took an excessive amount of time to produce, but the end result was one that I was proud of.

Comments: This is a pretty good example of what happens when you get really lucky and everything seems to come together. For video professionals, this might be a show they’d actually like to watch, other than our ugly mugs as hosts. I did some color sweetening on the outdoor shots, and we shot Adam’s segment with an old beta cam that had some issues, but other than that, it kind of came out well. Again, we didn’t have any lights, so this is all faking it lighting wise. Graphically, I enjoy the clean look, but understand that the actual design isn’t everyone’s cup o’ tea.

Comments: We got into town and shot some quick pickups for this vid, and banged it out fairly quickly. The flow isn’t optimum, but we needed it up. Graphics are OK as they can be without translating a 2d sphere/glass looking logo into 3d.

Comments: This vid was pretty fun, and toward the end of E3, the Electronic Entertainment Expo. E3 was one of the biggest tradeshows in the world, and after a whirlwind of crazy experience, we decided to sit down and shoot some fun stuff. The biggest problem with this video is definetely the lack of lighting. On all Netscape / Weblogs, Inc. shoots, we had a Sony FX1, a Quadcore Mac, but we didn’t have any sort of lighting till we went to ComicCon. We literally pulled teeth to get the most important elements, so getting the other elements was difficult. I really enjoyed this graphic package, not so much because it’s uber brilliant or anything (quite the opposite) but the Joystiq logo was just fun to animate and remember pong.

Comments: We covered the Milken Conference, mostly shooting panels and not really shooting stories. I’d like to highlight my graphics package in this one, because it really came out well, and compliments the website http://www.bloggingmilken.com/ .
