Productions & News Stories in Times of COVID-19
As the high of the Coronavirus pandemic hit the Washington Metropolitan region in March 2020, life quickly switched to virtual interactions. Here are some of the stories I wrote and produced remotely for Montgomery College's weekly newscast "MC in Focus."

Fitness Friday
Demo Show
September 2020
This project was conceived for the Directing class, still being held remotely in the Fall of 2020. The challenge was to produce, direct, shoot and edit a demonstration show on our own. Being an exercise aficionado, I had a great time coming up with this concept and using several camera angles to illustrate the different techniques described in the video.
Mask Up
Public Service Announcement

Out to the Movies
Green Screen

For this project, I had to create a story, shoot it at home and use a green screen to master the keying technique. In order to make it a bit more entertaining, I cloned myself and this is the result.
Forging the Future Eight Oars at a Time
History Project
December 2020
The objective of this project was to repurpose archival footage of a historic event. This meant writing a script and editing the existing footage to tell the story through our lens, while staying faithful to the actual events. Being The Boys in the Boat by Daniel James Brown one of my favorite books, it was a no-brainer what to focus this history project on.
