Thank You! Campaign to Transform Cancer Care Surpasses $1.2 Billion Goal
I’m very happy with how this video turned out. I did this piece for UT Television at MD Anderson Cancer Center, to thank donors who helped raise $1.2 Billion dollars to fight cancer. I did all of the motion graphics with After Effects, along with editing in Avid.
From the video’s YouTube description:

Doritos- Cut!
This is the team GoodBanana submission to the 2011 Doritos Crash the Super Bowl contest. The spot was directed by Kay Enis and Justin Back was the DP. I did the editing, and star as the Director. But let’s not forget: Gerald Guidry as the Bum! Brooks Lawson and Danny Perez as extras! And the fantastic field recording and sound design skills of Luke Odem!
This was a lot of fun to make, but like always- we did not win. Why? It’s probably not because the Dorito’s Crash the Super Bowl contest may be fixed? Oh well, at least we all got some great demo reel material out of the experience!

We’ll miss you Jamie!
Kid to Kid- How to Cope if your Parent has Cancer
This is really cool Educational Video that I worked on at UT Television, the video production department at the MD Anderson Cancer Center. This a MUST WATCH for anyone, it’s made for kids but is really effective at teaching ANYONE about cancer.
I was the Director and shot the video using a Sony EX3, with the exception of a few Canon T2i shots. I did all of the video and audio editing in Avid and After Effects. Motion Graphics were mainly done my Frank Castillo, myself and with backgrounds from Digital Juice. Jo LaCour served as producer and wrote the script with assistance from Marisa Minor, a Social Worker at MD Anderson’s Department of Social Work.
Glenn and Theresa Challenger- Wedding Video Recap
This is a recap video of the day when I married the coolest girl in the world.
I did the edited the piece. When I first started editing professionally (at Janis Productions) I did a ton of wedding videos to cut my teeth on the Avid. After I left that job, I vowed that I would only edit one more wedding: my own. So far I’ve lived up to my promise! Try not to get teary-eyed!
The video is edited to the song “Sea of Love” by Cat Power.
Pepsi Max- Hiccups
This the 30 second spot my team made for the 2010 Doritos/Pepsi Max Crash the Super Bowl contest. I wrote, directed and edited the piece. We didn’t win, but at least we made the popular blog Video Contest News’ list of Top 30 Pepsi Max CTSB Contenders.
