I have spent the last few days gathering up assets to update and spruce up my portfolio. I decided to start off with the below general production reel. Up next are more specific reels for editing, motion, etc. Contact me with any questions, thoughts, or to inquire about potential projects.

EDITING + MOTION GFX: Indiana Repertory Theatre (IRT) 2021-2022 Season Announcement
I edited and did motion graphics for this season announcement video for Indiana Repertory Theatre (IRT).
The theatre provided me with the beautiful poster art for each show (original artwork created by Tasha Beckwith and Kyle Ragsdale) and about a day to work. These video typically feature sIow “Ken Burns” vertical movement, which makes sense because the posters have portrait orientation. Working within that existing framework, I added camera motion, moving elements (fire, snow, ash particles, etc), and paced it to an epic track—which I had to edit to be exactly 60 seconds and hit enough beats for each section of the video. So, basically just another day for an editor :)
Below are some .gifs of my favorite sequences from the video. (Might vary somewhat from published final version… you can see the full video by clicking the post header image above.)
