Video: Production: New Chemistry Videos are up for Approval

(Photo taken on the set, while testing for sound and in the process of setting up lights and framing)

My friend Josh and I just completed work on three new training videos for the UCSD Organic Chemistry department, and the Environmental Health and Safety department. The videos are UCSD property so they are located on their website located below. I was responsible for shooting, lighting, sound (shame the mics we rented from UCSD wern't very high quality), animations, and exporting the videos for online and offline viewing. Once the videos are approved by both departments I will upload higher quality .F4V files without the interlacing issues that are present with the current test uploads.

Video: Chemistry Tutorials

My friend Josh and I worked on a series of five organic chemistry lab tutorials that teach students how to perform standard lab techniques. These videos were a challenge because Josh and I have never taken a chemistry course before, and the videos were pretty complex and mixed several elements such as voice over, 3D animation, and close shots in a small environment. The videos have been a hit, and received news coverage from several sources.

Video: Production: Editing: Faces

A short Film by Me and Jonathan Na. We took two screen tests and dubbed a vocal track over it consisting of various events in our subject's lives. My subject was Jim Hornung, a local artist and friend, and Jonathan's subject was Karie Ko, one of his friends.

Video: Production: Editing: The Loss Of Family

Part 1

Part 2

This is a short documentary that me and my friend Jonathan Na Created for out Vis 180a class. My mom is the main character, and tells the story about when my grandfather was murdered by my cousin. This was one of the professor's favorite student produced videos, because of the professionalism and style.

Video: Production: Editing: Emergency Evacuation

A video Jonathan Na and I (Alex Hansen) made for our boss Raymond Wampler to show how to properly escape from a bus when the front door is blocked and there is a possibility of a fire. This project was produced relatively quickly, with a small budget, and with our fellow shuttle drivers (myself included) as the actors. Eventually, the video was shown at a safety convention and garnered a lot of attention from the show goers.

Video: Editing: Frontera Dreams (HD Available)

Part 1

Part 2

Project 1 for Vis 180B Frontera Dreams. Everyone in class was assigned a section of the Novel "Frontera Dreams" and we had to create a narrative in any style we wanted. Our group received Chapters 4, 5, and 6, and we decided to do a more classical style narrative. If you enjoyed this, try a youtube search for the projects made by the other groups.

Video: Editing: Motion Graphics: Chroma Key: Channel 14 News

This was the final project for my studio video class. I was responsible for editing, all of the motion graphics, and the chroma key effects. We didn't have the best lighting, but it still turned out pretty good. The plot is that the world continuously gets worse until zombies take over at the very end.
