This mobile production site survey was created for a live concert at Donaldson Westside Amphitheater in Maryville, MO. I developed a comprehensive plan to capture the 45-minute performance using a multi-camera setup for live-to-tape production. The survey outlined equipment needs, crew roles, and a clear timeline for efficient setup and execution, while ensuring seamless integration with the venue’s audio system and effective communication between the crew and the band’s management.

My short film Love Bites won Best Picture in Digital Cinematography at the Northwest Film Festival in 2024. The comedy follows the journey of Max, a vampire with college student roommates, as he enters the dating scene after centuries as a recluse. The 12-minute script touches on themes of love, loss, and the challenges of connecting with others when faced with immortality. This project showcases my script-writing skills, particularly in creating character-driven narratives that balance humor and emotional depth, resonating with a wide audience.

This is a basic episode layout used throughout the Loosely Related series, specifically written for our geology episode. The concept involved combining an engaging interview format with a lighthearted activity—recreating iconic album covers using pet rocks. As the director, I designed each episode to balance entertainment and education, keeping the tone fun while asking serious questions to Northwest’s faculty and staff. The structure allowed for quick cuts between rounds of the game and geology-themed conversation, with real-time album graphics enhancing the entertainment aspect of the show. Filming included multiple camera setups (Sony FX-30 and GoPro) to capture dynamic angles and maintain visual energy throughout the episode.

This shot list was created for a 30-second “game rules” segment in an episode of Loosely Related featuring Northwest’s campus Police Chief, Clarence Green. The primary goal was to streamline production by minimizing filming time while capturing dynamic, engaging shots that would later enhance the film noir style of the final edit. Each shot was designed to convey the playful tension of the game, with deliberate use of camera angles, movements, and framing to complement the comedic detective theme of the episode. This structured approach ensured that the rules were clearly communicated while maintaining the overall tone and pacing of the segment.
