Some good news here! The Appalachian Tale which I edited last year has selected and has awarded it Internationally Renowned Film as well as second place at the Gray's Reef Film Fest in Georgia.
Excited that it was able to be shown on the big screen!
Nicholas Lawrence and Allison Bennett Dyche accepted the award on my behalf in New Orleans, LA.
At the ACP this year my Boston Marathon Timeline video has gotten two awards! The Multimedia Story of the Year (pictured above) and Best Viral Video.
Currently working on a new documentary about how the old coal mines in the Appalachian region have effected the water. It many cases changing the water to an ugly orange. In history its a tough choice because though in the past it has lead to a good economy and given jobs but the outcome leads to slowly destructing the environment. History repeats itself as people constantly live in the now.

I am happy to say that the Boston Marathon Timeline video that I made for SCAD District just became a Vimeo Staff Pick! I am so thankful and surprised. Its a wonderful moment when a dream came true.
This video was made for SCAD District and is response to to the Boston Marathon Bombings.
This video shows the basic timeline of the Boston Marathon Bombings (April 15-19, 2013). During just one week the United States experienced a great turmoil of emotions as trying to pinpoint the reasons why and who. The government, the media, and especially social media were trying to search for answers and all effected each other, similar to Newton's law of motion ("For every action, there is an equal and opposite reaction").

After 5 months in post-production The Taxidermist is picture locked!! Its been handed over sound and I'm excited to see where the sound designers are going to take it. Here is a little taste of what the film is going to be like:
Working on a small personal project which is about the band Homebody in which they came to Savannah to sing at Safe // Sound. It was an excellent performance and just making a small sweet and short video for them.
New business cards that talented Adam Rogers designed.
