While I do video storytelling – I also do photo & video montages and edit demo reels. This is a reel I did for Robyn Hatcher from “Speak Etc” from all her talks and appearances. She is the Queen of teaching presentation skills. I always learn something when I take on a project and this was especially important since good first impressions are, as unfortunate as it can seem, what people remember.
What kind of a first impression do you think you make?

So I took a weekend workshop at CUNY School of Journalism titled CUNY J-Camp: Video Storytelling Bootcamp. I loved it.
I want to tell not just good stories but stories that help shine a light on the person – the real person. I know that might sound lofty but I don’t really care at this moment. The story is important but to me the person behind the story is who I want to get to know.
Anyway – we did an video exercise around “object of meaning” that we each brought in. Working in pairs we put together a 60 second clip about our partner. Here’s mine.
What would your “object of meaning” be?

Boot shopping time for me. Next time I’ll come properly dressed.
Any similar stories to share? I would love to hear them. My embarrassed ego would love it too!

Got myself the to a ballet class after at least 8 years. Yikes.

Forget where I found this but it was on my “watch and study” list. It is a beautiful simple video. Cinematographer William Hereford captures Nathan Englander’s story.

So I can experience a whole lifetime on my way to the subway. Or at least a relationship.
What’s your walk to work like?
