I have an educational background in video production. Yet, only in the COVID-19 pandemic, when half of my courses converted to synchronous online delivery and the other half to Hy-flex, did I begin developing video content to support my students' learning. To date, I have created over 120 video tutorials spread over 5 courses ranging from equipment and lighting demonstrations, to theory explanations, and software tutorials.

Course Name: Studio II: Commercial
Course Code: PHO 8708
Original creation date: January 2021
I created this video to support remote learners during the COVID-19 pandemic by illustrating that in studio techniques are achievable in small spaces on location. This video was light by windowlings and filmed in my laundry room.
Course Name: Studio II: Commercial
Course Code: PHO 8708
Original creation date: January 2022
I created this video to support remote learners during the COVID-19 pandemic. I was also challenged by a colleague to make a tutorial video under one minute in length!
Course Name: Capture 1
Course Code: PHO 8810
Original creation date: May 2022
Re-edited: Sep 2023
I created this video for a new exercise I taught in September 2022. I filmed earlier than intended as I knew the behind-the-scenes footage of me filming it would make appropriate visuals for my Principles of Learning Personal Philosophy of Learning Video Assignment. A sped-up version of this video can be seen in that video.
The re-edited version updated the title card to the new course name and added close captioning to comply with accessibility.
Course Name: Theory II
Course Code: PHO 8767
Original creation date: Dec 2021
I created this video demonstration of how to use cross-polarized lighting to photograph tarnish prints for a Theory II course.
Course Name: Studio II: Commercial
Course Code: PHO 8708
Original creation date: Feb 2022
I created this video demonstration of how to light and photograph a necklace to support a new lesson that was added to the Studio II: Commercial course. While the video is longer than most of the content I produce, it represents a task that typically takes about 1 hour to complete.
Course Name: Studio II: Commercial
Course Code: PHO 8708
Original creation date: Mar 2021
Re-edited: Feb 2023
I created a more extended version of this video in the Winter of 2021, which converted to Hy-flex due to the pandemic. I needed to demonstrate how to use window light to create light scenarios we previously taught in the studio with artificial lighting.
Once we returned to complete in-person instruction, I created condensed versions of all the location lighting videos to provide the students with resources on how to recreate complex studio techniques with available light on location. In Fall 2024, I re-reused this resource in a course dedicated to location lighting.
