Bridal Spectacular – Tuxedo Solo, January 2011

This is a two-camera edit of the tuxedo fashion show number from the Bridal Spectacular's January 2011 show. The addition of the second, handheld camera wasn't planned, and the second camera was in full-auto mode. While it's not perfect, the shakiness kind of adds to the energetic nature of this particular song. Unfortunately, trying to correct the sometimes over-blown images from the second camera didn't work out, so it's there as it was. Also note that I'm running the front-of-house camera and managing the projector feed at the same time, hence the strange panning at the beginning.
Reminiscing: Middle School Book Drive (2002)
Prior to high school, I was a bona-fide overachiever. This included a duty as president of my middle school's National Junior Honor Society. During my 8th grade year, we ran a book drive for the elementary school nearest ours, one I believe was deemed an "at-risk" school under the No Child Left Behind Act. Our initial goal of collecting 1,000 children's books was shattered with a final count somewhere around 4,500 books. Here is the news report highlighting the event, which aired around December 15, 2002. (Warning: My elocution and sweater-belt are completely terrible.)
