My official title at Trinity is "Webmaster & Production Studio", but I have gradually taken it upon myself to change it to "Webmaster & Video Producer" when I tell people, because I'm not really a place. ☺ So I found it pretty funny when a co-worker was in my office a couple of weeks ago,…

I produced Trinity's 2012 Spring Annual Fund Appreciation Video last week. This production is 2:58 in duration, while the song itself is about 3:54 in duration.

Live, Love, & Laugh...in the Moment This was the theme for the 40th Birthday Celebration in Sacramento, California last night, for which I created an 11-minute, 202-photo video production that looped during the party. This 30-second video showcases a few of the incorporated custom effects, like the 3D effect on the opening photo after the…
