Of Monsters and Men - Narrative Series
A great crowdfunding video must answer three questions: Why this? Why Us? Why Now? I created this thematic video to answer those questions for potential backers in a visually striking and engaging way. The video helped my team and I raise $10,000 in only four days to begin production on the series pilot.
Beyond the Lake - Narrative Feature
They say "Go big or go home." But when you're making a feature film, I say "Go big, THEN go home." I created this over-the-top crowdfunding video not only to outline the story, challenges, and greater goal of my feature film Beyond the Lake, but to display my filmmaking talent and musicality for a music-based film.
THE MAGIC WORDS - NARRATIVE SHORT
Every crowdfunding campaign experiences a fall off in donations after a week or so. If not careful, passionate fundraisers can find these doldrums inescapable, and fall short of their targeted goal. When we reached this stage in the campaign for our short film The Magic Words, I created this video to give a well-timed shot of adrenaline into the campaign.
PICKLEBALL ROAST - SILENT AUCTION
In July of 2021, a "pro-am" Pickleball tournament, featuring world champions Dekel Bar, Kathryn Parenteau, Simone Jardim and Ben Johms, was held in Lakeside Ohio. Following an exhibition match, a fundraiser dinner was held to commemorate the event. Little did the dining guests know that I had been hired to write and perform a song roasting Pickleball in front of the entire room, Pro's included.
