Surprise 50th Birthday Video

I was honored the other night to show a video montage that I made for Chris’s 50th Birthday.  His sister Lisa, contacted me and told me that she wanted to do something special for his birthday.  Lisa gathered the pictures and video clips that she had of her brother.  Sarah, Chris’s wife, also supplied some of the pictures used in the video.  Lisa’s husband David, came up with the opening script and Chris’s son Sean sent a clip of him wishing his dad a happy birthday and the audio clip that was used in the opening voice over.

Since golf is a big part of Chris’s life, I went on YouTube and found some clips of Tiger Woods and music clips that fit the pictures.

This is the video that debuted on the big screen at his party.  Janet Donelly took the pictures of Chris watching his video.

I also put together a shorter version with just the golf scenes for his golfing buddies to watch.

Here are the pictures of Chris enjoying the video.

Palm Beach Post’s First Tweetup

Last night I had the pleasure of attending and documenting the first #pbctweetup.  There were over 120 people and everyone had a great time…as you will see in the video.

Special thanks to @Surflocal and @vpm for organizing, @leilawpb for hosting at his beautiful restaurant…Leila’s, and @lapp for lending his interviewing skills to enhance the video.

Hope you enjoy and please leave a comment.  I am sorry if your scene in the video was cut…there were so many great interviews…not all of them made it into the final cut.

If you have an event and want a video to post the next morning make sure you call me…@OwenO “The Video Storyteller”.  We have packages priced to fit any budget.

Hillel Graduation Clip

Here is the clip from graduation…please verify that the names and pictures match. This is a sample of the content of the video that will be on the DVD. However the quality will be much better on the DVD….the video is compressed to play on the internet.

Edit:  So far I just noticed that Talia’s picture is wrong.

Sicilian Oven Pizzatweetup

Last night was the second pizzatweetup in South Florida. It was held at Sicilian Oven in Lighthouse Point, Florida.

I shot the video, drank a beer, ate a few slices of pizza…socialized…then came home and uploaded the video.  This is the type of service that I offer my clients.  I always…OVER DELIVER.

I also had the pleasure of meeting the Poken Girl.

Killer Bee Removal in Boca Raton, Florida

I created a video the other day when I called Shalom Pest Control in Boca Raton, Florida to take care of the bee hive that was in a wall in our back yard.  The location of the hive was next to “the spot” where our two gorgeous black labs go to make.

My wife had heard about how “killer bees” have already killed a couple dogs so after a few futile attempt with spray cans of Raid…we called a professional…Dr. John Warner.  When Dr. Warner started suiting up…I asked if he wanted to make a video of the experience (I just happened to have my video camera…ready.)  I edited the video and uploaded it to YouTube.  The next morning I uploaded the video to CNN’s iReport.com and here is a screen capture from their site this morning.  I didn’t realize that this was such a controversial topic.

This is a link to the video on their site:  http://www.ireport.com/docs/DOC-241592

Note:  Sorry about the music track…I used freeplay music so that the video could be played on broadcast tv.  Some of the comments compared it to “porno music”.

Sunday League Tournament

This is the video that I produced for the Sunday League Tournament held at Grandview Prep in Boca Raton, Florida.  The winners received a complimentary copy of the DVD with a custom label with their picture on it.  All players can purchase a copy of the DVD for a special price of $10…everyone else can buy copies of the DVD for $20.  These DVD’s will also have the player’s picture on the label.  The picture below is a copy of Matt’s DVD.

This is a compressed version of the video for the internet.  The DVD version is a much better picture.
