Connecticut College: The Greenhouse

The Greenhouse at Connecticut College

As part of the fundraising process for the new life sciences building at Connecticut College, I created this portrait of the college greenhouse, and the faculty, students and plants that make use of the facility. Originally, the goal of this video was to attract donor support for renovation of the greenhouse. I created an alternate version, shown here, for use in college publicity. I’m especially happy with the footage of the plant specimens visible in the video. The botany program at Connecticut College is truly special, and I hope I’ve done it justice.

Connecticut College: Uganda Internship Video

Summer Internship in Uganda

Brigid O’Gorman, a senior at Connecticut College, spent last summer in Uganda working at a medical clinic. She brought along a video camera, and I edited together her footage to make this video for College Relations. I pulled together this short narrative from around 70 minutes of footage. Really amazing stuff – I wish I’d been able to include more of what she shot.

I filmed the #8 Connecticut College Camels (12-0) when they faced off against the also-undefeated #6 Tufts University Jumbos, and quickly edited the footage to get this video up. A couple interviews, then the highlights start.

Connecticut College: Student Bands

Student Bands at Connecticut College

When I heard that my good friends Shake the Baron were recording their first full-length album at Connecticut College, I had the idea to make a video about them for the YouTube channel. That led to a larger exploration of the student music scene on campus, which is what we’ve got here. I’d say it’s my biggest video so far for the college, in terms of production.

Connecticut College: Unveiling the New Camel

Introducing the New Camel

At the Founder’s Day celebration on April 5th at Connecticut College, the redesigned Camel mascot was debuted to the college community. I recorded the festivities and edited a quick video showing the build-up to the unveiling and the decisive moment. This is the first in a series of videos highlighting the events of Founder’s Day, which celebrated the College’s 99th birthday.

Film Studies: Of Course

Of Course

Here’s my final project for the production course I took in the Film Studies department at Connecticut College. It’s the story of a college guy who can’t quite figure out his relationship troubles. I wrote, produced, directed and edited this short film. Starring Charles Cochran, Lily Ockwell and Alexandra Avalone, featuring music by Shake the Baron. Enjoy!

Connecticut College: Study Abroad

Study Abroad – Connecticut College

I spent Thanksgiving break visiting Aili Weeks, my girlfriend of the last year and a half, in Copenhagen, Denmark. I brought along a Kodak Zi8 HD camcorder, and we recorded this video showcasing the opportunities for studying abroad through Connecticut College.

Connecticut College: Organic Garden

Over the summer, students lived on campus and tended an organic garden, growing produce for the dining hall. This was the first of my videos for the Office of College Relations.
