This video was at the landing page of the ArizMATYC Organization's conference webpage (now at http://arizmatyc.org) for their 2010 conference, which was held at Pima Community College. We filmed it on location, and I edited it with Avid Media Composer.

A silly project from 2010 stemming from watching the FISH! Philosophy videos, and wanting to make our own in Pima Community College. There were many people involved in this project, and I want to thanks every one of them for participating in this video.

The video below was a gag video to reuse some b-roll for a project that showed one thing, that you can make a nonsensical video that is still watchable. I used a reverse tripod for a scene, almost everything else was from leftover footage.

At the time I felt that we couldn't fix life situations, we could just … Continue reading Fake One-Minute Commercials
