SOME OF MY THINGS

I figured that I should be sharing with you guys the work that I've been doing so, I'm just going to put in a bunch of links to videos that I've worked on, either as a gaffer or an editor or as a director.
I'll answer any questions you may have.

A recent music video that I was gaffer for.

This is a trailer for a horror movie that I gaffed last year.

This is a project that I was a gaffer for. Devin Graham directed it.

This is a trailer for a film I directed while at BYU called "The Secret Life of Walter Mitty".

This is a music video I directed for Kelly Packer, an Idaho based musician.

This is a promotional video that I did as a favor for a friend. I had limited time and low quality materials, but the final product looks great. I also designed the titles at the end with After Effects.

The thriller short film that I wrote and directed.

    Thanks for sharing Dave! I tried to view all of the videos, but the ones at vimeo.com said they were private and that I needed a password. Can you give me that?
    These are all great. The rabbit's foot one freaked me out.
    What's a Gaffer?

    Ditto on the Rabbit's Foot! I could only see the ones with the blue link. I was glad to see these, thanks for putting them up.

    I've just updated the vimeo videos, so none of them should be password protected. And for mom, you'll have to copy the URL of the vimeo and then paste it into a browser search bar to go there. They aren't hotlinks.

    The rabbit's foot scene is the first scene from Mission Impossible 3. It's pretty intense, huh?

    A gaffer is the person on a film set who is in charge of setting up and placing the lighting. You can't make a film without light, so the gaffer's job is pretty important. Usually when something looks cool or interesting in a film, it's because of the lighting (or the costume or the set designs, but mostly the lighting!). Gaffing is what I primarily do to make money out here, that and working as a Key Grip.

    I just made all of the links "hotlinks", so now you should just be able to click on them and they'll take you wherever.

    It's funny what you said about lighting, because that was the first thing I noticed in the rabbit's foot clip. Nice work!

    It's so cool to be able to see what you're up to! It's like being connected again!
