New Job - Graphic Design

I love graphic design and have really begun to do a lot of social media cover art pieces as well as memes. I recently got a job at Weber State University's Career Services Center. They have commissioned me to do some advertising for them. I am going to be creating short video advertisements, posters, online graphics, etc. Here is a banner ad I just created for their website.

Easter Campaign I Got To Work On

I was fortunate enough to be able to help out with this campaign. My job included helping to put together the report for the Church's legal department to review and approve. Some footage, like the space shuttle taking off, was not actually filmed by the Church and was licensed to the Church by another group.

This is a very powerful Easter message about Jesus Christ and I would highly recommend watching it no matter what your religious view. To learn more click here.

For Facebook

I made this image in photoshop as cover-art for my Facebook page. I took the photos as well. There are two main photos. One of the bountiful temple and one of cloth. The cloth was originally white, so I had to change the color. There are also background photos of other red cloth for texture.

The man who came up with the title of liberty was Captain Moroni, a military leader in about 73 BC. You can read the original text by clicking here.

Another Shoot

It's always fun to watch the actors say their lines over and over again as the director strives to get the perfect shot. When you see the final product it always seems looks so natural, but what you don't think about is that it took five or six times to get that shot/performance to feel that way.

Fun stuff! It's cold but we're in the middle of another shoot. This one is a kind of anti-bullying campaign and I think it will turn out really well.

A Music Video

I've never helped out on a music video before, but the last couple of days I got to. I was a Producer's Assistant on a professional level project this week. We shot mostly in Bountiful and Murray. It was fun.

One of the fun parts was to see the artists lip sinc to their own music. There were a couple of main singers and I got to talk to them. Because of how fast this project needed to be done they recorded on Monday! Wow! Talk about getting things done in a hurry.

The song was about "Coming Unto Christ." They played the pre-recorded music on a laptop with some pretty good speakers and the artists lip synced.

I also really enjoyed talking to the make-up artist this time around. Ed Matsu really inspired me with some of things he said. He said he's had a lot of Spiritual experiences working on film projects is Utah. Great guy.

Fun project overall!

Jackson's Video

My friend Jackson is going to Film School at the U of U! He's a great guy. He made this video.

He was the cinematographer our Kay's Cross project.
