The Truth Matters
This is a commercial for an event living streaming on Hawk Plus called, “The Truth Matters”. The event was a panel conversation with members of WNBC Channel 4 and Telemundo 47. The topic was fake news and how to identify it. I used a bunch of fake news headlines in the intro to set the agenda of the conference. The goal was to make a commercial that had a corporate feeling in order to capture the background of the experts speaking.

THE MORNING BUZZ COMMERCIAL
This is a commercial for WMSC’s flagship morning talk show, “The Morning Buzz”. The Morning buzz began to live stream their show in March, in addition to their radio presence. I made this commercial to promote it’s arrival to Hawk Plus while also highlighting the topics they talk about. The goal was to create a video that was fun. It had to match the energy of the show. It also had to inform viewers about the topics discussed by the hosts. I used clips recommended by the radio station to capture both the fun and informative aspects of the show. This was my favorite video. I received positive feedback from my team and the radio station.
Welcome to your Future
“Welcome to your future” was event live streaming on Hawk Plus with employers from WNBC Channel 4 and Telemundo 47. The topic was a live panel discussion providing advice on starting your career and preparing for the job market. I made a commercial for Hawk plus to promote the event. The goal of this was to make a video that was quick and simple. It did not need any fancy editing, as long as it quickly and clearly got the event information and start time.
Red Hawk Sports Network Game of the Week
This video was made very last minute. Red Hawk Sports Network was supposed to make their own video for Hawk Plus. However, their was a mix up on their side, and no one got it done. This was the first promotional video I had to create. I made this video in about hour, less than the a day before the game began live streaming. The theme had to be match the pace of a basketball game. It also had to highlight the athletic theme of the event to demonstrate how the Game of the Week featured a variety of sports.
Montclair Movie Night
With Izzy Conklin
My teammate Izzy Conklin came up with the idea to screen student short films on Hawk Plus. We brainstormed how to execute the idea all semester. We came up with the theme Montclair Movie Night, and agreed we would have a new film stream every Tuesday and Friday at 9 p.m. I gained production experience by shooting the introductions that would play before the film began. These are the intros to some of the films Izzy found for Hawk Plus. The background and lighting were designed to be cinematic. We used cookie cutters on different colored lights to create a dramatic effect. The background was kept dark to fit the night time theme. The equipment in the background was meant to give off the look of equipment used to create movies.
