So it turns out that Macbooks can slowly electrocute you. Those pretty Aluminium unibody machines have a pretty serious fault in certain cases. This can also cause problems with peripherals, since the various plugs come into contact with the body of the machine. So to make this quick, the problem is that if you don’t use the …
As an alumnus of the Theology department at Concordia, this project was dear to my heart. There are a lot of testimonials in the video, but here is one more: doing Theology at a public University made me aware of aspects of faith in the world which I never would have considered, and of connections …

Two mental tools really motivate me in my work. The first is a strong philosophy of wedding videography (see the last point) and a good system that I believe in. I find that I have to believe strongly in these things to do a good job. It’s not a religion, but if it were, some of my points …
When I visited my family out West, I showed my sister and my brother in law my fast, spiffy used Macbook Pro I7 which I picked up for a very reasonable price. It’s a 2010 model, but with a few upgrades it is a quick, responsive editing and on-the-go machine, even though it’s a few …

It was a privilege to travel to the United States with the North American Maritime Ministry Association to put together this video for National Maritime Day. The video had to be edited the same day, which was a challenge as I had to change locations three times while editing. However, despite all odds, it came …
The shipping industry is amazing–bigger than Microsoft, more invisible than the CIA. In April I had the chance to travel to Stamford, Connecticut for the North American Maritime Ministry Association to do a series of interview videos and conference recordings. It was a challenging schedule, and each night I would take the footage I had recorded …
I sometimes have the pleasure of working with other videographers on projects. Usually I am quite pleased with the results, However, nobody’s perfect, and some people, especially when starting out with DSLR event videography, could use some pointers.
