Meet the Intern: Episode One- Project #4

I've submitted this video internship visit for my final video production project. In this video, senior Speech Communication major Madeline Therasse discusses her internship experiences at Hermitage House Youth Services in Cambridge Springs, PA. Maddie gives a tour of her work space and we also hear from her supervisor, Ms. Lin Gabriel. This video is content for the soon-to-be-launched virtual internship site of the Edinboro Communication and Media Studies department. Let me readily acknowledge the less-than-stellar framing of Ms. Gabriel, along with an exposed lav mic cable (apparently I haven't learned from past mistakes). In hindsight, I also wish I would have shot more b-roll. Enjoy.

Special thanks to my grad student colleague Brian Shreve for his assistance.

High School Journalism Day Video Essay- Project #3

Here is my third project for JOUR 419, a video essay using footage from the Communication and Media Studies Department's 2nd Annual Journalism Day. It's longer than the 2-3 minutes specified, but I felt that my a-roll was quality enough for a six-minute video. In hindsight, I wish I would have chosen some different shots and angles and captured some additional footage from the end of the event. Nevertheless, enjoy.

Dr. Peyronel Interview- Project #2

This latest production is an interview with Dr. Anthony Peyronel, faculty advisor for the Edinboro chapter of the Public Relations Student Society of America (PRSSA). This interview is the first part of a larger video project that will highlight the PRSSA chapter. Please forgive the annoying glare from the background photo frame and the exposed mic cable (both bush league mistakes, I know). Special thanks to Professor Wertz and his "vignetting" expertise.

Photo Montage- Project Numero Uno

Now up for your viewing pleasure (or displeasure), my first production for Advanced Video. This photo montage, set to the vintage hard rock strains of Uriah Heep's 1972 hit "Easy Livin", makes use of cornball photos of my friends and I during a memorable night out. Just to show that I sorta know Adobe Premiere, I've also thrown in many gimmicky video transitions. Enjoy.
