This is a camera test I did for a PITtv video that currently has the working title Cosmic Microwave Background Radiation. I wanted to make a subject, in this case my cat Oliver, transparent and so shot some footage and repeated it on the timeline at different opacity levels. There's no audio.
 
 
Check out the new video from my PITtv team Lefthook called the Baby Who Probably Wished He Had No Fathers. I made it with my teammate Thomas Michael because a) we wanted to test out some new camera equipment I’d purchased, and b) we want to make improvised comedy videos. The “I” in PIT does stand for “improv”, after all.

We gathered up a couple friends, went to the PIT and recruited a few other people who were hanging around. This is what we came up with. We think it came out well enough so that we want to make more improvised videos, albeit perhaps with a bit more planning involved.

But I still think this is a really funny movie, and the performances in it are hilarious.

The PIT recently started a video production department, which they organized into teams of people making comedic videos for the Internet.  I was chosen to be on Lefthook, which is comprised of seven talented, funny individuals.  I'll post the movies I have a large hand in, such as the ones I write or direct.  To see everything by Lefthook, please go to our website.

This is my first Lefthook video, which is called Every Country in the World vs. the U.S.!  I wrote/directed/drew the pictures for it, and my teammates also contributed: Thomas Michael did the voice-over, while Emerald Catron helped out with audio engineering.
