Howdy from Dayton, TN
 

Well, I've been around here for a while now, but realized this morning that I never officially introduced myself.

I'm twenty-three, almost a college graduate, working for my soon-to-be alma mater, Bryan College. My primary duties are to make promotional videos for the school, but I also help with all kinds of other media responsibilities for the school and I do a lot of event planning and coordination with the Advancement and Alumni departments as well.

I'm shooting with a Canon XH-A1 and accessories include Sennheiser shotgun and lav mics, Neumann, AKG, and Audio Technica live sound/recording mics, Bogen/Manfrotto tripods, (hoping to add a Libec tripod soon as well), and DIY stabilizers, jibs, and dollies. I edit using Premiere CS3 on the Windows XP Pro platform with a quad-core 2.8Ghz Intel processor and 4 GB of ram.

I have also owned my own multimedia business since I was 14, specializing in classical recording--both solo instrument/vocal and instrument/vocal ensembles. I have nearly 10 commercially released CDs on the market and have edited and mastered hundreds of radio shows, lecture series, and commercial spots, in addition to being the primary recording engineer for Bryan College's music department for the last four years (working independently of the school). My company also provides full web production services and I have extensive experience coding with HTML and ColdFusion, just to name a couple. Over the next year I plan to expand my multimedia company to include live event sound reinforcement (primarily for small venues like weddings and parties) and videography. I'm hoping to offer not only event videography, but also live video production for concerts and sporting events with the live feeds running to jumbotrons and HD projection screens.

Feeling kinda lonely here in the backwoods of Tennessee, so if anyone else is in the area, say hello! For those who don't know where Dayton is, we're about 45 minutes north of Chattanooga and 45 minutes south of Kingston/Oak Ridge on U.S. Highway 27.
