Powerley Product Video

Powerley needed a video to explain their product, the Energy Bridge. By conducting interviews and surveys, I was able to give each stakeholder a voice, gaining overall insight to explain the product in an extremely simplified manner. Difficult-to-understand features were explained in a way that matters to the home owner in a one minute video.

Responsibilities: concept creation, storyboards, director, director of photography, editor, graphic effects, colorist, sound design.

 

Chevy Volt Tour

The Chevy Volt tour had to explain to the consumer that gas and electric don't always mean hybrid. Volt's unique powertrain means that they can drive their average daily commute using only electricity, yet still have the ability to take that longer trip due to the on-board gas generator. Responsible for concept, storyboarding, art direction, music direction.

 

“Creating Detroit”

This piece was created as part of the "It's Your Town" competition sponsored by New Amsterdam Vodka. The film won 1st place in Detroit and 3rd place nationally and was screened in Hollywood at the Chinese Theatre.

Responsibilities: director, director of photography, editor, colorist and sound mixer.

 

Secondhand

This was my zero-budget short film passion project. Shot on several historic locations across southeastern Michigan, my aim was to create a narrative piece that felt lost in time. Not period, not modern, but time-agnostic. Grab some popcorn and enjoy the show!

Responsibilities: director, director of photography, editor, colorist and sound mixer.

 

“Before We Sail” – Featuring James Franco

This project was stressful! I was acting as creative director for a photo shoot for Hilton Garden Inn in Akron, Ohio. I drove back to Michigan to shoot this video and back to Ohio the same night to finish my duties on the HGI shoot. Mr. Franco was a total gentleman.
