Political Campaign Video
Teen Pregnancy PSA (w/ Jaylyn Murillo and Jakob Berry)
Mr. Demuro Targeted Ad (w/ Jaylyn Murillo ft. Lezlie HIlario)
We got to see ways that candidates may shape their videos and campaigns to their advantage, and read in between the lines and analyze different types of campaigns.
We chose teen pregnancy because we wanted to show the aspects of teen pregnancy that people may not think about, to encourage safer relations in high school.
The assignment was to make a targeted ad for our teacher, Mr. Demuro, based on information that we know and have learned about him. What would drag him in? What would appeal to him? What would get him to buy or do something? That was the goal of this video. I had a lot of fun with this project and doing the photoshop for it.
VOSOT News Video w/ Emmanuel Huerta, Barbara Rosa, and Ronelvis Marte
I got to work with a hand held equipment that let me move with the camera and keep the camera super straight, as well as work on a video that deals with a lot of movement and action (left). I worked on my interview skills, and my news telling skills and research skills (right).

The show not only gave me experience in the directing department, but it also allowed me to work with others to create the product of my imagination in a way that is authentic and entertaining to those viewing. Editing was also exciting because it taught me new things like the best ways to incorporate sound effects, or how to edit specific clips for comedic effect, and ways to use effects and music to bring a focus to the film and maintain the attention of the audience.
This was a video with the purpose of informing an audience and promoting something for them to do, a type of video I hadn't really done before in this way. We wanted to do it in a way that appealed to multiple audiences and also didn't feel like you were listening to a lecture. I was able to record B-roll and really pick out what is relevant to the video.
