Personal Video Projects

Candle

This video was a project for my Digital Arts I class. The project we were assigned was to make a self portrait of something and I chose a candle. All the filming and editing was done by my, but the music was done by that talented Tomáš Dvořák (Who did the soundtrack for machinarium) and I take no credit for it.

Red’s Odyssey

This was my final project for my Digital Arts class. It's a group stop motion project. The opening title and the second section of the movie (The one with the gummy bear) were done by me. The story is the journey of a character named red.

The story is the journey of a character named red. He starts out as a human, then turns into a gummy bear, then a sand man, then a frog, and then a cardboard person. Enjoy

THe Juniper Tree

A group film I worked on for my 2D Digital Studio class. Music and filming by me. Editing and concept by Tyler Nelson.

Forever Heavy - Black Moth Super Rainbow (fan Music Video)

Song: Forever Heavy - Black Moth Super Rainbow I know the reverse effect is trite and overused, but when I heard this song all I could imagine was stuff running in reverse so I thought I'd make a short film to go with it. That and it looks sweet!

Until the Blue Came

Music, poem, and video by me "Until the Blue Came" The two met when the atmosphere made the parks sky a livid blue Where had she been?
