Even horses get stuck in traffic.

Looks like a cowboy. Outside of the Oriental Hotel.

The things you see late at night in Malate…

Fun heart-tugger animation I made while at Explore Media, co-written by Kevin DeCloedt. Awesome song by Sleeping at Last.]]> If you’ve had the pleasure of meeting Lucas Miles from Global Pastor Outreach, you know there definitely isn’t any energy lacking in his demeanor! This project came about from a need he had to promote his latest endeavor online, and during concert venues. Editor/Illustrator Ian Bennett and AP Kevin DeCloedt collaborated to write, animate, and finish this compelling video, which I’m sure makes Lucas even more excited to spread his message. Thanks to the band Sleeping at Last for being so gracious with their fine little tune “Umbrellas”!

Commercial I edited while at Explore Media for Kosciusko Community Hospital.]]>
Producing video content for a health system can often turn into an equipment & technology broadcast, or can easily become a litany of the latest corporate buzzwords. Thankfully, Kosciusko Community Hospital’s marketing department sees things a little differently. We were given the task of making sure the KCH story was told, and that the target market could also identify on a personal level. For KCH’s first ever TV campaign, the “Living Life” story is a refreshing look at the personal story of Rick’s Heart.

Got a chance to do an animated commercial spot for South Bend Regional Airport while at Explore Media!]]>
Murphy Design is the longtime agency for South Bend Regional Airport, and they came to Explore Media with three needs for a new commercial spot: 1.) The spot needed to communicate how easy and relaxing it is to fly out of South Bend vs. a bigger city 2.) They needed to express SBR’s ability to get you to many major locations and 3.) They wanted the spot to visually stand out in a creative, memorable manner. Mission accomplished!

The second spot for the "Smooth. Not Smooth" campaign I helped come up with and edited while at Explore Media.]]>
Starcraft Marine has always given Explore Media the creative freedom to build every year upon their core brand. We’ve collaborated on an award-winning promotional DVD which tells the Starcraft story, yearly event videos for dealer meetings, product videos which creatively unveil new boats, and this latest challenge: designing national TV commercials for the 100-year old boat company with an emphasis on The Ride. Our team came up with this concept, distributed in the form of two spots for national broadcast by Starcrafts boat dealers: Smooth. Not Smooth.

A 100-year anniversary video I edited at Explore Media.]]>
Explore Media’s editor Ian Bennett, in conjunction with Kevin Packard and Grant Henry of Ludwig Drums, spent three months compiling & editing this 100-year anniversary video. Using pre-shot interview footage of Ringo Starr, Patrick Keeler of The Raconteurs, Bun E. Carlos of Cheap Trick, Steve Gorman of Black Crowes, Alex Van Halen, Ed Shaugnessy of The Tonight Show, and many more, we tried to add our Explore Media style to make this story rock!

One of the three Goshen College spots I edited at Explore Media that aired regionally during the superbowl.]]>
Goshen College is a small liberal arts college with a big story, and they needed to communicate this story to three different audiences: alumni, students, and potential students. “Student Stories”, which premiered during the 2009 Super Bowl, was designed to use current students to persuade potential students with the reasons Goshen College has provided a perfect fit.
