As a Motion Design 3 class project, I had the privilege to work with a group of five other students to develop two videos for the local Cincinnati psychedelic rock band Lemon Sky. We produced a documentary style video for the band, as well as a music video for their song “Bad Bad”.

For the documentary, we really wanted the band’s personality to shine, so we prompted them with serious questions, and let them proceed with less than serious answers. It would’ve felt disingenuous for this documentary style video to be anything other than a little bit silly.

For the video shoot, I acted as audio technician, making sure everyone was mic’d properly throughout the day and monitoring audio levels during recording. I also acted as the main editor during post-production. We recorded hours of footage and I already had an idea of the story I wanted to tell for the band, so I felt comfortable taking the reigns on forming a cohesive story structure out of the footage we captured.
