Johnson Imagineering Videos - Odds & Ends and the Funny Stuff
 |
Here is an eclectic collection of assorted small productions done over the years. Many of these were made while I worked in Kuwait. The harsh summer environment there limited my opportunities for outdoor filming, so this was a period in my life where I concentrated working in the editing suite with the AC running. There are also a couple of shorts filmed in Germany and Greece. |
| This was my going into retirement final video made in Kuwait, showing the broadcasting station I managed in the desert. My apologies to WB for ripping off the end clip. |
| I was studying a filmmaking course from Hollywood Camera Work and doing an exercise in compositing with visual materials supplied in the lesson. The completed VFX exercise product was silent, so I took the liberty to add some sound-design and some sick comedy. (Sorry, Per Holmes, I couldn't resist). |
| The above was my submitted entry for the Digital Director website promo contest in 2008. It won First Place. Filmed in our living room with an old SD camera |
| "Future of Solar Power" was a sarcastic shot at Environmentalists; sort of a Dr Jekyll and Mr Hyde breed of video. It starts out like a normal pro-solar documentary, then goes into full zinger mode half-way through. My most "liked" and "unliked" video along political lines, of course. |
| My wife and I took a cruise in Greece. I had a cheap little consumer-grade camera and monopod with me and just could not resist the temptation to make a funny Travelogue. |
| "Space Romp" was a little fun in sound-design using available public domain footage and space animation. |
| "Schloss Linderhof, Bavaria" - a video tour and more traditional style of Travelogue presentation |
| A unique way to make the dismantling of a VOA German satellite earth-station interesting. |
| How do you make a video about a ghost railroad that existed before there were motion pictures or TV? Like this. |
