"Face It - Rachael" 5.3mb

This was part of a 5-spot campaign for High-Tech Institute.  These spots have sold all across the country, and this version won a 2006 Omni Award and a 2007 Telly.  Color effects were done in Adobe After Effects 7.0 with Magic Bullet plug-ins.

"8-Bit Theater" 3.7mb

This spot was pitched as a parody of the Super Mario Brothers video games, but was too close for comfort for the client, and was eventually killed.  All elements were drawn at the pixel level using Pixen, and animated in After Effects.

"16-Bit Theater" 8.5mb

This spot was created in response to 8-Bit Theater being shut down.  I based it off classic first-person shooter games like Wolfenstein 3D.  The maze was rendered in Maya 7.0, and the game display was done in After Effects.  This spot has run in markets across the country with great success.  The awesome original music for this spot and 8-Bit Theater was composed by Dustin & Britt Frank. 

"Eggs" 4.9mb

Conceived as a reason to order two-dozen baby chicks over the internet, this spot has been sold to many markets and has done exceptionally well.  All elements were drawn in Adobe Illustrator and animated in After Effects.

"Top Gear" 8.8mb

In October 2006, we rented the I-70 Speedway in Odessa, Missouri to film three Automotive Technology spots.  This one was the "brand image" spot of the three.  All work was done in After Effects with heavy Magic Bullet effects.

"Locked-In" 6.6mb

After we filmed "The Long Shot," we decided to shoot a commercial on its jailcell set to recoup some of the costs of its construction.  I wrote, directed and edited this simple spot starring my friends Kyle and Jen.

Internship Recruiting Video 15.1mb

This video was made for a previous job's website to promote their internship program.  It compares the boring internships at other agencies to their super awesome internships.  This piece is over three minutes long, so it's smaller resolution to make the download quicker.

"Bloom" 5.7mb

This simple spot was created in a couple days, and won a bronze Telly in 2006 for its animation.  All elements were drawn in Illustrator and animated in After Effects.

"Silhouette Culinary" 5.6mb

This spot won a Communicator Award and a Videographer's Award for its use of graphics and animation.  All the 3D elements are cubes that were built in After Effects.
