FoodNotes* is an online series that I and the 2 hosts/co-producers created from scratch at PBS Reno. You'll see several episodes throughout this page. It was a huge endeavor that has won 5 awards with just 1 season. It combines most of my content creation talents. I was the lead producer who organized the content and coordinated with the guests. I was a director helping guide the hosts along the interview. I was a videographer helping capture footage inside the fast paced kitchen. I was the graphics editor, doing the research and finding interesting ways to present the culturally important information in the most appropriate way.
Of course there was an entre team of creators that made this happen, but it's a highlight in my career so far because of the sheer amount of effort and energy I put into it for several years.
Dance films are some of my favorite niche genres to film. I love getting loose with the camera and following dancers graceful movements as they do what they do best. I was able to film a few with Movgram Dance, this is one of those films.
I've been hired many times to cover events and create promotional videos for future events with the footage I've captured. Not only will I attend the event and capture as much as possible, but I believe that the organization should have that raw footage for them to use as they see fit.
For this particular video I was asked by a Reno non-profit to capture their Neutral Ground events that were funded by a city grant. This video was meant to show the city the impact the grant had on the community that this non-profit serves.
I work at the largest and scariest haunted house in Northern Nevada, Dark Corner Haunted House. I do a wide variety of roles for them. One year they asked for a long video that could be played in a line that could build the world and keep guests entertained.
But here's the catch. Small budget. No time to film something big. No assets to work off of. This is one part of what I created.

Across my 7 years producing stories for the ARTEFFECTS series on PBS Reno I created over 100 episodes. Some of those stories stand out to me as powerful storytellers.
This one in particular was a fun challenge because the 2 artists who were featured created a huge variety of art. It was difficult choosing what to focus on and what was most important to tell their story.
This is another ARTEFFECTS episode that has stayed with me since I completed it. The art exhibition featured in this story was already finished by the time I learned of it's existence. So how do you tell the story of a vast, subjective, and artistic space and how it came to be with only broll of the space itself, and luckily a handful of smart phone videos.
There was a lot to navigate through with the FoodNotes* series in general, but this episode in particular felt like a great accomplishment. We we're able to find a local restaurant who created this Filipino feast with traditional Filipino meals. And we we're able to do lots of extra research to present the educational part of this series with factual information and relevant video footage. AND we even got our crew involved on camera.
