Video Portfolio
Check out some of these videos that showcase my talents as a lighting designer.
515 Alive-Electronic Music Festival
I also work as a contracted lighting designer for a local production company. This is where I get more experience with live production for concerts. Check out my 'More About Me' page to see some of the many bands I've designed lights for. This video is from an electronic music festival in downtown Des Moines.
VBS 2012- "God Feeling"
This is another VBS 2012 song. Like I mentioned above, designing lights for some of that years most popular songs was a lot of fun. They were challenging, but made me learn more about what I can do with the technology I was given.
VBS 2012- "God Rock Anthem"
I am a lighting designer for a 'mega' church in Des Moines, Iowa. A lot of the videos and pictures you see here are from the designs at this church. This video is from our VBS last year. I had a lot of fun designing lights for some of the most popular songs of the year.
Skrillex Attempt
When I've got time and the technology is available, I like to experiment with songs I like to listen to and see what I can do. By doing this I learn more about myself and have a lot of fun at the same time. This is a Skrillex song I attempted. As you can see I didn't get all the way through the song. It was probably the most challenging song to design lights to.
VBS 2012- "God Loves Me and I Know It"
Another video from VBS 2012. The kids loved these songs and I'm glad I had the opportunity to assist in the fun. This was definitely a favorite for both the kids and for me.
When I've got extra time during VBS I love to stick around and experiment with popular songs that are on the radio and that I like to listen to. This is a design to a song called She Wolf by David Guetta.
She Wolf
Interlude-VBS 2013
This is a song that we did for VBS 2013. It was the opening song every day to get the kids pumped up for bible school. We had drummers during this song as well that really helped create the mood. I really enjoyed designing lights for this song.
