The National Inventors Hall of Fame reached out looking for a one-day shoot in Springfield documenting the event that they had going on. The shoot consisted of gathering b-roll shots from multiple different classes and coordinating it in such a way that we wouldn't be filming any of the kids that weren't allowed to be on camera. We've also set up and conducted 5 different interviews with the help of an interviewer that they provided us with. We aren't allowed to share the videos but here are some snapshots of the interviews.

It was a 3 camera shoot with a teleprompter and an overhead shotgun mic. The editing turnaround time was about 2 weeks. Due to legal reasons, we can not include the video, but here are a few snapshots. in the production process, we kept in touch with the Marketing team in Mexico to approve our set-up at the time of the shoot so communication here was a crucial point. During the editing phase, we've also added graphics and utilized After Effects to make all of the graphics work.

A short film was created with a team from the youth group. Filming took 3 separate days and had 3 different locations.

Daniel | Live Play - Supplemental Video
This project was for our young teen summer camp presented by our church. The final video was used as supplemental video during a performance play/ theatrics.

Probably one of the most unique experiences we had, still remember how my assistant and I flew in an open cockpit world war 2 plane to get some epic shots!

The shoot lasted a full day and included many various segments ranging from testimonials to capturing b-roll from the sky!

Dmitry and Gaby |
Branding Video
One of the biggest challenges with this production was that we had to present 2 services that were almost exact opposites. So after taking some time to write a script we then took one day to come out and film. Filming took from 4 pm to about 8 pm, so around 4 hours in total. We then proceeded to use relative stock footage as b-roll and added in some motion graphic work and created a final masterpiece.

Debora reached out with the need to edit 3 pre-recorded videos into a highlight clip that she and her husband filmed. After discussing the end goals of the video, we decided to recreate the video entirely from scratch. We then took the challenge of producing an attractive script and then filming it one month later. We filmed at a private estate in Montgomery with whom we have a great relationship and plan on producing more shoots in the future. The result and response of the final product were just amazing!

Conklin Office Furniture |
Project 3
Having already filmed 4 ads throughout the year with Conklin, we had a lot of b-roll that didn't make the cut. So after I was presented with a script and voice-over, we immediately got to work and crafted an ad from the existing footage we had in our archives. The result came out great and it also saved Conklin a lot of money as our production team didn't have to make an appearance.
Westfield Starfires | Hype Reel
After connecting with the Director of the Starfires baseball team, we decided on creating a 30-second hype reel. The goal was to boost awareness of the Westfield Starfires of the Futures Collegiate Baseball League. So the day of the game I came with an assistant and began filming 2 hours before the game started. Throughout the whole entire game, we had beautiful lighting and weather which were a big plus. A couple of days later we created one of the coolest sports videos we've ever done by far! The feedback was phenomenal!
Breckenridge Demolition |
Hampden Homebuyers
When I first heard of this project, I got pretty excited because demolitions are always fun to film and watch. After filming the demolition from around 7 am - 9 am, we then had one of the companies employee's (Audra) take pictures regularly of the ongoing construction. A year later, a new house is built and we filmed the final interviews and b-roll in the finished house.
Intro Scene | NH Play
I was asked to create a dramatic video that was to be premiered before the start of a 1 hour long live play in New Hampshire. With the audio file and a couple of ideas from the main event organizers, I began to develop a storyboard. After creating the storyboard, we had one of the organizers help me with locating the right props and items for set decoration. The actual shoot happened inside of a big dark library. It took us about an hour and a half to properly set up and another couple of hours to get the perfect shots. We had a last-minute improvisation of adding in a "jail moon-light" to which we improvised by casting harsh light blocked off by cardboard and tape, to which the end results gave the effect of moonlight shining through the jail cell window. The end result was well applauded. The audio and play were performed in the Russian language. The B-roll seen throughout the video is from the TV show "The Chosen" to which we received a green light to use from the director.
Perfect Curve Inc. | Product Videos
This was a fun project to work on, it took place near Boston and we filmed inside the owner's home. With all of our lighting gear, we were able to transform his home into a professional studio. Achieving high-end results on a budget! We filmed 2 different products and in the end, created 6 deliverables (60sec/30sec/15sec versions for both products).
Camp Ashford
Working with kids and staff was a fun and amazing experience. The goal was to produce a video and show it the next day. It was a 5-day camp, I filmed all day, at times improvising short skits, stayed up editing past midnight, and premiered the next day. The results and feedback were amazing!
Caruso Instrumental Cello Ft. Elona Petlyakov
When the bride reached out in hopes of producing a music video for her wedding, I had to think quickly since the wedding was in about a week. After finding the perfect spot, we picked a time and captured these moments which were then premiered for her groom at the wedding.
HCC Marieb Chair Award Ceremony
Challenged with organizing schedules, interviews, actors, and a creative flow, this project turned out to be a blast! We've done VFX work, color-grading, stabilizing, SFX design, motion graphics and so much more to make this the best video HCC has ever seen!
NEAM QR Code Project
I've been working with the New England Air Museum on multiple projects and this is probably one of the coolest ones. After having Amanda lead the interviews with many well-known engineers, pilots, and technicians, we then created a 4-5min video of their stories. (The original interviews were about 30min long.) Due to our contract, I am not able to post these videos publically, but you can find them at the museum.
Conklin Office Furniture | Part 2
After the successful delivery of our first 2 ads, we started working on another 2 commercials focusing more on the products and less on the pandemic. These have been playing on big channels such as CNN, WSNBC, FOX, etc...
Yankee Candle Village
It was a one-day shoot that we probably did within the time span of 4-5 hours. I arrived with my drone, got some aerial footage. We then went in and conducted the interview after which Barbara then led me through the building showing me the key features they would like to highlight throughout the video.
