I haven't done as much video work in 2007, but there are a few things in the works or with bits of footage.... more to come.
Side Question: Isn't this kind of web page obsolete in the age of YouTube, etc.? Well, maybe, but probably a dozen people a month even visit this page, so the bandwidth isn't a problem. And I sort of like keeping things I've worked on all in one place, and somewhere that doesn't have ads. And hey, isn't having a personal web page "obsolete" anyway?
Cider Press (Bicycle-Powered)
Footage will be uploaded here at some point but has not been yet.

Bicycle Cider Press Film
If the footage is turned into a short film in the next few weeks, hey, maybe that will even be uploaded here too!
Godspeed
I was just a grip and extra in this film, which a friend got me involved in. A slick production that included using a tandem bike for over-the-shoulder shots.. (web site | trailer)
For my birthday in 2006, I thought it would be fun to organize a film festival ("YES") and get my friends to submit short films. It was a great success, with a wide variety of films. Most are not online, but you can check out the program.
