Town of Champlain: Summer and Winter fun!
I was contacted by my friend Jason Borie of the Town of Champlain. They wanted a couple videos to put on their new website. A summer and a winter one to show all the events and activities their town offered. There’s the standard way to do it. Have a narrator tell you all about them with shots of each thing mentioned.
We wanted to do something different!
We wanted it to be more like a tour with a tour guide. Being comfortable on camera isn’t easy. You need someone who is calm, confident and comfortable “in the spotlight”. Jason is part of an improv comedy troupe and fellow comedienne Tiana Saroj would be perfect for the job. We had an absolute blast making this. Both start off pretty standard but then they take a turn! Check these out when you get a few minutes to spare.
“Living and Working in…” regional tourism videos
Last summer I had the pleasure to work on this series of videos for Northern Adirondack Board of Realtors. It was also a chance to work with my former colleague Kari Hoffman, who was the Producer on these. The idea was to highlight what select towns in the region are like to live and work in for potential home buyers. We shot the vast majority of it, but some select shots were supplied by ROOST. Kari did the rough editing in FCPX to flesh out the story lines, then I did the final edits by adding music and effects, B-roll and all graphics etc.
