It was a pleasure to create this video for the Saratoga Regional YMCA, which tells a few stories about meaningful connections that have been forged through the SRYMCA. It was played at the Impact Celebration event and also distributed through organic social media. Thank you to the interviewees for sharing your stories!
Here’s a short highlight video of Chowderfest 2023 that was produced for Discover Saratoga. It was nice to see the festival back and strong as ever!
Junda Video Enterprises produced a series of recruiting videos for General Electric’s FACTS program. It was interesting to learn more about the program and how it helps make the grid system more efficient, which in turn helps the world reduce its carbon footprint. Here’s one of the videos that was produced, which features some of the team members from the Saratoga Springs FACTS team talking about why they enjoy working on the team. All of the GE employees were great to work with during the video shoot and it was a pleasure to be involved on the project!
Here’s a video that was produced for Honeycomb Credit to help showcase Chow Bella, a Saratoga Springs based business that offers an assortment of dog-related services, and at the time of writing this post, the area’s first and only indoor dog park. It was a great to film Chow Bella’s facility and the dogs that were present during my time there. From my experience filming at the facility, I’d definitely recommend dog owners in the area check out Chow Bella!
Here’s a video that was produced for the Saratoga Regional YMCA. In the video, the current CEO, Scott Clark, discusses the steps the Y took during the pandemic, what it’s up to at this current time, and its outlook for the future. It was great to work with the Y again and I wish them continued success in their mission of helping others!
Here’s a promotional video created for Discover Saratoga’s 2022 Chowderfest. This year’s Chowderfest features both the weeklong tour that was implemented last year, as well as the traditional day-long Chowderfest format from prior years. One could say that this video was a long time in the making, as the footage was shot during the 2020 Chowderfest event in February, just a few weeks prior to the lockdown. It’s promising that since that time, things have started to look a bit more normal again and the time honored tradition of Chowderfest is back in Saratoga.
Opera Saratoga had planned to host a free live concert performance by Zachary James at Universal Preservation Hall (UPH) in Saratoga Springs on New Year’s Eve, though with the spread of the Omicron variant, they made the tough, but pretty necessary decision to cancel the in-person portion of the event. They did, however, decide to continue with the performance in a video recorded format, so that people would be able to view the show from the comfort of their homes. Here’s a brief segment of the performance, where Zachary is accompanied by Laurie Rogers on the piano, singing “Pure Imagination”, which many people, including myself, remember from the film Willy Wonka & The Chocolate Factory. Zachary has performed on Broadway and played Don Quixote in Opera Saratoga’s 2021 Man of La Mancha. I’m glad to have had the opportunity to play a part in giving people the chance to view the performance of the talented artist .
The pandemic has certainly changed many things in the world, with the business industry being no exception, as many of us know. Here’s a virtual tour video produced for the Holiday Inn of Saratoga Springs, which gives people the opportunity to learn more about what the hotel offers without having to physically visit the location. The video provides viewers with information regarding the hotel’s conference, wedding, and general guest stay services. It was particularly special to produce the video for this venue, because of my past ties to it. It’s where Skidmore’s time honored MB107 (Management and Business 107) presentations take place, which I participated in during my first semester. It was also the go-to hotel for my parents when they visited me during my college and post-college years, with the hotel’s dog-friendly accommodations definitely playing a role in making that decision. From my experiences with them from the past and for this most recent project, I whole-heartedly recommend that people looking for a hotel in the Saratoga Springs area to look into the Holiday Inn!
Awhile back I had created a promotional video for the Saratoga Convention and Tourism Bureau ( Discover Saratoga) that showcased the benefits of being a member of the organization,, and was called on again to help produce a refreshed version. This video consists of testimonials given by current members of Discover Saratoga and the benefits they’ve seen by being a part of the organization. My business has been a member for quite a few years now and can testify for the great features and benefits that were discussed in the video. I send well wishes to organizations in the convention and tourism industries during this current time where the pandemic has changed the landscape of their businesses, and would certainly recommend that they consider joining Discover Saratoga if they aren’t already members, to help them navigate through this current situation and help them flourish for many years to come.
It was great to get back to filming for Opera Saratoga for the 2021 summer season. Featured in this post is a video showing behind the scenes footage for the preparation of the Man of La Mancha show as well as interviews with people involved in the show. Man of La Mancha was performed at Saratoga Performing Arts Center (SPAC) and this video was projected onto the in-house video screens at the venue before each performance. Just like previous seasons, I enjoyed getting to witness some top quality performances and gaining more breadth in the performing arts.
