Video Portfolio 21:48 The Daily Office Lectionary with Father Reid A weekly program that takes us through Scriptures from the lectionary in the Book of Common Prayer. This program boasts 20K views per week and is shared on the popular Facebook page Unapologetically Episcopalian. 4 0 0 2:28 Priests on the Streets The goal was to get the priests out in public. We started with a prayer walk near our church, which didn't bear much fruit. People were uncomfortable talking to a priest, most likely because they thought it would become religious. So, I encouraged them to discuss anything else while still wearing their collars. We aren't opposed to discussions of spiritual things, but only if that happens organically. 2 0 0 11:10 World Religions: Christianity This ten-part series explores the main religions of humanity and seeks to reveal the answers to foundational questions. Recorded using a green screen, the production style allowed me to add various backgrounds and pop-up info screens depending on the religion being examined. 25 0 0 3:13 North Lake Wire Community Outreach It's essential to keep our parishioners updated on all the church's activities. Outreach is a vital part of our mission, so using media to promote upcoming events. We do this by showing these videos during the announcement part of our services, on our website, and on social media. Initially, the North Lake Wire area was plagued by high crime rates, making it unsafe to visit. However, our presence and efforts have brought about a significant change. The Lakeland Police have reported a drastic reduction in major crimes, a testament to our positive impact. 3 0 0 1:17 Promo for "Interstellar" VBS (Vacation Bible School) This was made for under $500. We put up a green screen, the actor made his own costume, which was meant to look cheesy, shot it in two takes, grabbed a film trailer template, and 2 hours to edit. Not bad, 'eh? 128 0 0 0:37 Organ by Candlelight An eye-catching social media/TV commercial to promote a music concert. 166 2 0 7:45 Sunny, Sunny Lemon Street Before you laugh too hard, please remember that we had zero budget, no experience, and it was during COVID. Still, we cobbled together a set, used a green screen for the first time, wrote and recorded a song (a first), and pulled in a lot of incredible, first-time actors. It was fun and helped us all to get through the pandemic together. 79520 160 0 4:45 An Eastertide Blessing This Youth Ensemble loves to sing for Easter each year, and because of COVID restrictions, we had to exercise our creative muscles to do something a little different. Also, this is my first music video! 91 0 0 2:57 Compassion Day, March 25, 2023 A day of outreach in the North Lake Wire neighborhood, in north Lakeland, Florida. Members of All Saints' Episcopal Church and the Dream Center of Lakeland worked with local residents to do some cleanup and enjoy some fellowship. #lakeland #polkcounty #florida #church 68 0 0 18:33 World Religions - Hinduism I'm happy to see this getting some watches. However, it was not my intention to push this out yet. There are MANY things wrong with the current production: 1) I need to redo my voiceover, 2) Dr. Snyder's video is a little soft (I need to reshoot), 3) I need a Hindu expert, either a practicing Hindu or a professor of world religions, for example, to interview 4) I don't have permission to use George Harrison's song yet. I wanted to use this as a treatment example to work on getting the whole project appropriately funded versus calling this a truly completed film. Still, since it's out here, I could use some suggestions on improving it, which might also help future videos for this project. Also, how did you find this? What did you search for? I'm curious because I entered no keywords or anything. I simply uploaded it. In fact, I searched for "Hindu religion," and this didn't list. 4472 121 23 3:12 Big Bend National Park Big Bend National Park is in southwest Texas and includes the entire Chisos mountain range and a large swath of the Chihuahuan Desert. I visited the park in July and the weather was amazing. While hot, the dry air was comfortable, especially in the late afternoon/evening. On our drive out of the park, around 10:30 p.m., the stars were brilliant! 83 4 1 4:07 Zion National Park Located in the southwest corner of Utah, Zion National Park is a nature preserve distinguished by Zion Canyon’s steep red cliffs. Zion Canyon Scenic Drive cuts through the park, leading to forest trails along the Virgin River. We drove through Zion twice, reversing the gate-to-gate drive. While the park also offers majestic trails and a unique bus tour, we were unable to experience either. Our goal was to visit as many national parks in a month, so we were pressed for time. In hindsight, I would have loved to at least do the bus tour, as it goes to different parts of the park. While the goal was to visit as many parks as possible, my true motive was to show my daughter (and production assistant) how big and beautiful the world is, while grabbing as many minutes with her as possible before she grows up. 58 1 0 0:35 Advertisement for Tomberlin Another golf cart commercial advertisement for social media and such. It may surprise some how many hours go into such short ads. Every effect potentially ads an hour to the project! 124 0 0 0:14 Commercial Advertisement for Garia A lifestyle ad for Garia, a luxury golf cart manufacturer. This was fun! 50 0 1 18:05 Worldview A twelve-part educational series about the various worldviews that have existed throughout history, featuring author and professor, Dr. Alan Snyder. 19 1 0 Load more...
