I greatly enjoy video and video editing. Here are a few video projects I've worked on.
The Snowmen Invasion - In my first year graphic design class, we had an assignment to make a simple video to show three different kinds of cuts. That was the only instruction, and it happened to snow shortly after the project was assigned, cancelling classes, so I decided to go overboard. The result was this newscast which I scripted, recorded (with my roommate as a camera operator– thanks Leland!), and edited.
Capstone Recap - During my senior year of high school, I completed a STEM Senior Capstone project, which aimed to reinvent the curriculum for how Arduino is typically taught by guiding students through building a remote controlled car. We were assigned to make a video recapping the project. I scripted, filmed, and edited it myself, in my room. I chose to lean into a kind of scrappy, imperfect feel because the project itself is kind of scrappy and imperfect, and because I felt it would make a more engaging and genuine video. Too much polish and the video would get boring fast.
The Meander Step Stool - Part of the presentation for the step stool project was to make a 30-second video showcasing where and how the stool would be used. My teammate, Vedaant, and I scripted the video, shot on-location with Vedaant as the camera operator, and I edited it, going for a whimsical vibe to match our script.
