“Indiana Freemasons Commercial”update

Monday, Paul Page (the voice of the Indianapolis 500) came by and we laid down a couple of takes for the Indiana Freemasons commercial spot. Its always a pleasure working with Paul. First of all his voice just makes a spot. He came over and without a hitch had different versions of the same 30 second VO in no time. I am honored to work with someone of his caliber.

The whole concept of the commercial is based off the Indiana Freemason website. Clean and simple. The funny thing is the "simple" looking graphics are always the hardest to accomplish. I think it turned out pretty well and am quite proud of the "finished" product. I say "finished" since its not really completely finished yet.

Any way here is one of the "finished" takes.

“Indiana Freemasons Commercial”

I have been working on a commercial for the Indiana Freemasons for the past month, off and on. Basically trying to work on it while breaking from wedding edits. I have a first draft that still needs some work on timing of the graphics and some additional visualisations. I thought I would go ahead and put it on line.

I have been building it in Adobe After Effects, and have based the colors of their website. I originally did a promotional/recruitment video for them a couple years back. In February I was approached with the idea of creating a commercial.

Shannon and Sean

It seems I have neglected the blog a bit. Sorry about that. Any way I thought I would post a recap from Shannon and Sean's wedding. Shannon and Sean were married at the Northwood Christian Church off Central Avenue. A neat bit of information I received during the rehearsal was that, I believe I am remembering this correctly, that Shannon's Grandfather had a hand in the building of the church. So the location holds a special meaning. Any way, the day of the wedding was beautiful, blue skies, and great temperatures. Their reception took place at the Crown Plaza Union Station - Grand Hall. Both Shannon and Sean seemed to be having a great day and it showed.

Here is thier Recap
