This page is to showcase events that I have shot and edited from beginning to end.

The Hope Dealer

I entered a short film into a local Film Festival (Commfest) CLICK HERE, and it will be screened on September 20th, 2009 at the Rainbow Cinema in Toronto. Here is the film’s synopsis:

The short film entitled “The Hope Dealer” documents how a man uses Martial Arts as a vehicle to lead, inspire and change the lives of at-risk youth.  As a youth, Colin Ninvalle was labeled a “trouble maker”, and would get into fights to defend himself from bullies in the community, with his friends saying he probably wouldn’t make it past his 18th birthday. Colin believes in the children he mentors, especially since he knows all too well the trouble they could get in to without guidance, that’s why he believes it is better to be a Hope Dealer instead of a dope dealer.

Reptilian Birthday Party

A friend of mine asked me to capture her son’s 6th birthday which took place at a kids party place called Reptilia.  The kids had a great time exploring and learning about reptiles like Crocodiles, Snakes and Lizards.  Watch the following clip to see all the fun they had, it was amazing !!

Martial Arts Showcase – March 2009

Recently I had the pleasure of meeting a Martial Arts teacher named Colin Ninvalle.  He is the founder of MATS (Martial Arts and Tutoring Studies), which focuses on developing positive and productive characteristics by using martial arts as a vehicle to attain success for his students.   Colin asked me to capture a performance of his program called  “Wadoka”, where he showcases the students’ unique talents.    The password to view the video is the name of the performance, look back in this post if you can’t recall (all lower case).

Dancing with the Stars – April 2008

My coworker, Robert, asked me to record a ballroom dance performance last weekend. Robert and his wife Gertie, have recently won first place in a dance competition in Halifax, and they compete all across Canada. I was glad to have the opportunity to record this for them. Even though I enjoyed watching Dancing with The Stars; it’s so much better to watch in person than on TV.
