Delivering Quality Results
This gallery will help SEE-LA see the quality of work I’ve done, and trust my results.
You’ll notice most of my work so far has been with churches. It’s true. However, I am actively trying to work more with the non-profit community, to support good work in places like SEE-LA.
Also, see our public gallery for content I have created. That gallery emphasizes my sense of narrative, and creativity when given wide latitude.
Restoration: Parables of the Pandemic
This project was of a similar scope to the SCNEPP project.
The client approached me with an idea, including the idea of the kintsugi pots. They also provided most of the clients I interviewed. I outlined the scope of work, refined the idea and the stories, and guided the narrative on this project.
I filmed in a studio setting, did the graphic design for the project, and then all the editing, color grading, audio mixing, and final delivery. I sub-contracted some of the music for the soundtrack.
In addition, I cleared rights for footage of another event we integrated into some of these videos.
Finally, we were able to convert an existing space (a church) into a studio space by bringing in lighting, overhead microphones, and the like. This is similar to the approach we would take with the kitchen sections of your project.
Please note, there are 6 Parables of the Pandemic videos. Others are linked here: 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6.
Filming Live Events
While I am proud of the Restoration videos, I converted a church into a studio to make them! However, a significant portion of the SCNEPP project will be filmed at a farmer’s market, and much less controlled. This worship service, filmed during the COVID pandemic, shows what I can do at a live event. Further, it shows what I can do without any production assistants.
Production Notes for This Video:
I have an ongoing relationship with Trinity North Park in San Diego. Typically, we edit iPhone footage for them. However, for this project, we filmed a small group doing a worship service in the middle of the pandemic.
I filmed the worship service, and did all the editing to deliver the final product. This included color grading, audio mixing, integration of external assets, etc.
I’m particularly proud of the audio recording of the musician, and what we accomplished with 1 tech person (me) on site.
Creative Work
This is an example of the creative work I do when I am given room to explore. This is a sermon bumper for a sermon series on Miroslav Volf’s Exclusion And Embrace. The only other note I received from the pastor was this: his “hook” each week was Volf’s famous quote, “I cannot, but I think I should be able to.”
The footage is all stock footage, the text is Corrie Ten Boom’s famous story.
If you would like to see more of the creative work I do, visit the gallery at www.capitalhopemedia.com There are a dozen other videos like this.
