ABC Baltimore Annual Meeting

Mike Henderson is a very creative guy. He's also the president of ABC of Baltimore--which is the Association of Builders and Contractors. They help contractors network, represent them in Annapolis with political issues and do some very cool stuff to help minorities in the business. Mike saw some videos on iamsecond.org and thought it would spark some ideas for us to imitate (the best form of flattery). With script in hand, and only a few hours to capture about a dozen interviews, I think we pulled off a very creative video for something that could've been quite boring.

This may be the best editing I've ever seen in my life!

Pastor Andy Millar called me up to see if I'd come out to Denver, Colorado to put together a 5-minute video about his 1-year old church. Andy was the associate pastor of the church I used to go to in Littleton, Colorado when I lived there just after college. Andy is a great guy--kind of an older brother/mentor to me. So, I said, "Sure." I spent about 5 days following Andy around and seeing for myself what this very unique church community is doing. I asked a ton of questions and did my best to capture the spirit of the people and place.
