    The Wetzel Foundation: New Normal

    In their own words: “The Wetzel Foundation is a non-profit organization dedicated to offering hope to those effected by ALS and dementia.”

    “The New Normal Movement is the Wetzel Foundation’s initiative to foster these conversations. In addition, we offer resources to make the process of creating documents as simple as possible. In this way we hope to ensure that an advanced directive is something that every parent has and that every family understands.”

    This video was created with Danny Prussmann of Blunt Content and Casey Hansen of The Wetzel Foundation. My role was motion graphics and animation; Danny created the illustrations. Ravi Patel lent his voice to narrate Aaron Ring’s writing.

    Fitch Ratings: The Why Forum Event (MOS)

    This video was created for a live event and compiles several elements that I created on behalf of Addison (addison.com) for Fitch Ratings. These include tracked scenes with 3D element insertions, re-graded & restored stock footage, and real-world implementation of template elements created for use in Adobe Premiere Pro.

    The templates include packaging elements for titles, lower 3rds, transitions, over-the-shoulder graphics, all created in a way that allows an editor to quickly work with contributors to create content for inclusion on the Fitch Ratings website “The Why Forum” (thewhyforum.com).

    Roles:
    3D model creation – Maxon Cinema 4D
    Animation, video post, stabilization, restoration, tracking, compositing – Adobe After Effects with Video CoPilot Element 3D
    Template creation – Adobe After Effects, Adobe Premiere Pro

    The demonstration of the Fitch Ratings website “The Why Forum” (shown from 1m17s to 1m45s) includes several browser based graphics which I did not have a role in creating.
