CEREAL KILLER
ENTRY FOR STUDENT TECHNOLOGY SCHOWCASE 2001
STS siteEvery day millions of cereal boxes
are thrown away...
What if one day, the box fought back?This is the most recent finished film project I have done. This is dedicated to the worst and cheapest horror films of all time. This film was presented at the Duquesne Student Technology Showcase this past Spring, and was a big success.CEREAL KILLER is the story of Barry, (played by my brother) and his deadly encounter with a Honey Nut Cheerios box. I had lots of fun with this film, using many different camera angles and effects such as trying to film from the perspective of a box crawling along the floor, and through the "mouth" of the "monster" (see picture).
Hope you enjoy the trailer.I plan on putting the entire movie (6 minutes long) on this site soon in the future.

Creating Dragons
using Adobe Illustrator & Photoshop
This was a documentary/instructional project showing the steps I went through, using Adobe Illustrator and then Photoshop, to create my dragon computer graphics
I composed the midi music as well, Melodic Hetrophony using Finale 2000 and Soundedit.
This was my final project for my Music Technology class, spring 2001.
The piece was presented with the music played through a midi keyboard, using Digital Performer, and the video playing along side it.

GODZILLA
meets
BINX the CAT
This was a video slicing experiment I did out of complete boredom and curiosity.Here we have Binx, the cat who can't die, from the movie Hocus Pocus and his meeting with Godzilla.
What can I say? It was too irrisistable, I had to try it.
Pretty much I captured the scene from Hocus Pocus when Binx, the cat, gets hit by a bus, then inflates himself back to normal and walks away.
I combined that footage with the scene from the recent Godzilla film in which the cameraman gets stepped on.
Put the two together and you get the chance encounter of a killer lizard and an immortal cat.

Taxidermy
FINALIST OF ADOBE DIGITAL FILM FESTIVAL 2001 -best music video
adobe finalistsI know I know, this sounds rather bizarre... a music video about dead animals...
You must understand that I am an animal lover and this is a protest against the cruel art of Taxidermy.
This was perhaps the hardest, most time-consuming project I've ever worked on.
At one point there were 12 layers of video clips running at one time, to render the entire finished product took a week alone!
As a note, the images of the animals in the video never really move (just as how the poor animals themselves in real life are motionless)
