80s + 90s House Party

Friend and professional photographer Theresa Rivers recommended me when the CEFN (Community Enrichment Fitness Network) needed a videographer for their fundraising events. CEFN's goal is to bring the Philadelphia community together by empowering everyone to live healthier lifestyles through eating right and exercising. This is the third one. My previous CEFN videos are here and here.

Creating Fashion with Laurel: Shopping for Fabric

This is the episode where Laurel visits four fabric stores in Philadelphia: Gaffney Fabrics, Inc., Jack B. Fabrics, Fleishman Fabrics & Supplies, and B. Wilk Fabrics. Creating Fashion with Laurel airs weekly on the PhillyCAM channel and won a Hometown Media Award in 2023. More episodes are on Laurel's YouTube channel.

Big Mess at the Troc

The Trocadero was the last 19th-century Victorian theater in operation in the US and a landmark of Philadelphia’s entertainment scene when it closed in 2019. It was also home to burlesque group Big Mess Cabaret, who gave their final performance on the theater’s closing night. I was there with my camera to get just enough to make this 12-minute tribute video.

The Plastic Club Rabbit Festival with Dreaming Thomas

The Rabbit festival is the annual costume party and talent show at The Plastic Club. I was dubbed Rabbit Chairman by Club President Rick Wright in 2017. In my third year of organizing the event, I took my camera along and afterwards assembled this seven-minute video.

Eat Your Peas

This was my final project for the video editing class I took at PhillyCAM. The assignment was to make a two-minute video from provided clips, using every Adobe Premiere function we'd learned. When I showed it in class, the teacher said, 'it looks like something that would be used to brainwash bad little kids in A Clockwork Orange'.
