Summer Skiing
6 months ago
The first project for a field production class at Robert Morris University was completely open ended. Topic, length, style was complete up to us students as a way for the professor to gauge our current abilities and help structure the class.
I followed my roommate Clark and his cousin Andy to Ohio Dreams Action Sports Camp on one of their trips to use their summer skiing ramp.
The ramp at the time was constructed out of wood and then covered with a white outdoor carpet. Skiers and snowboarders of all levels could come to this artificial mountain and practice tricks, landing safely in a pool below. An attendant would trigger one of 3 sets of jets under the water to bubble before the skiier would hit the water to break the surface tension to soften the fall.

Robert Morris University held a contest among their students to create a video that described some aspect of the RMU Experience that they have experienced. From working in the academic media center at the University I chose one of the on air student news anchors to talk about his positive experiences that came from working in the AMC.
My entry won the contest and I was featured on Robert Morris Universities homepage and YouTube page. Here is the story on the contest and my entry.

WDSY-FM Y108 is a Pittsburgh country radio station. For the Academy of Country Music Awards the station was doing a promotion that would run during the airing of the ACM Awards. I worked on shaping the script for both versions of the commercial, was present on the day of the shoot, helped design the look of the studio that served as the background for the commercial, and sat in on the edits to create the final product.

Created during my internship with KDKA-TV’s Commercial Production Department. For this project I was given control of script creation, finding the audio and visual elements, and gave suggestions that were used during the editing session. Throughout the course of the project I was given feedback and direction to help shape the commercial into the final product that appeared on air.
