"A heist takes a strange turn when the thieves discover they have stolen a powerful magical item."

Come for the video, stay for the outtakes.

Originally made for a 48-hour film fest, this was conceived, written, and shot over a 24 hour period (though post went a touch beyond the 48 hour period because, well, we could).

Working with the Office Team at Microsoft, I edited this video as well as helped to craft the narrative.

Part of the challenge was weaving together footage from different sources, shot with different cameras, and in multiple locations. These had to tie together with the interview to achieve the goal of showing how data is helping to bring water to communities throughout Africa.

Capturing alpha gameplay footage, I cut together this launch trailer for the game Hot Brass. It highlights the different gameplay modes and themes of the game. This trailer is featured on the Steam page for the game.

I worked with BGC3 to edit this piece for use in promoting the Big History Project. Using interview footage BGC3 shot, combined with stock footage and original animations, we created a short story about the course, not only from the point of view of it's proponents, but also from the kids who have actually experienced the lesson plan.

This video was created for PayPal's Leaders Day Conference and was used to present a new product for PayPal called Bonanza. The concept was to bridge the financial gap between banking for business and an individual.

One challenge was to not have overly complex title cards or a voiceover to explain the features. Actors were brought in to represent the user base on a more personal level with the use of hand painted title cards. The video, from concept to presentation, was a short 6 week production.
