Saint Mary’s Univ Christmas Tree, unlit….

www.mattkprovideo.com/2024/11/23/saint-marys-univ-christmas-tree-unlit/

Raw uncut footage of the Christmas tree installed at Saint Mary’s University in San Antonio by GLO-GEEKS light installers.

I will be doing color corrections and will slow down most of these shots in the finished commercial.

This will probably be used with newer footage I will shoot in December after the tree’s lights are turned on. A “before and after.”

HERITAGE OF NONSENSE, Book Trailer

HERITAGE OF NONSENSE, Book Trailer

A Heritage of Nonsense: Jim Garrison’s Tales of Mystery and Imagination Paperback –

by Fred Litwin (Author)

A Heritage of Nonsense contains nine stories that illustrate Jim Garrison’s malfeasance, his paranoia, and his conspiratorial mindset. There is a commonality that runs through this book: the insidious nature of conspiracy theorists, gullibility that stretches the imagination, and a smattering of mental illness. For the first time ever, you’ll read about the East German Stasi files of Richard Case Nagell, a man who desperately needed psychiatric help; the truth about Rose Cherami who supposedly had foreknowledge of the JFK assassination; a gay rights activist who channeled Lee Harvey Oswald at a séance; a Las Vegas entertainer who became a suspect in Garrison’s investigation because of one phone call; and the search for a lost map of Dealey Plaza. I even solve a longstanding JFK assassination mystery. And a whole lot more.

You can buy the book on Amazon:

Editorial Reviews

Review

“In the late 1960s, New Orleans District Attorney Jim Garrison spoon-fed the public scenario upon scenario of implausible JFK assassination conspiracy theories, many of which have been adopted by well-known Warren Commission critics. Using actual evidence, clear reasoning, and common sense, Fred Litwin masterfully debunks many of the more popular vignettes of Garrison’s theories. A Heritage of Nonsense is a must-read for anyone who wants to be properly informed.”
— Robert A. Wagner, Author of JFK Assassinated: In the Courtroom: Debating the Critic Research Community

“For anyone harbouring lingering doubts that Garrison was a deluded charlatan, this book nails that coffin shut tight. With a strong commitment to first-hand testimony and primary source analysis, Fred Litwin is the highest form of amateur investigator writing about the Kennedy assassination, setting the record straight against the leading peddlers of conspiracist nonsense. Fred’s meticulous research, his compassion for the victims of shameless witch hunts, and his low tolerance for paranoid hogwash, make him a formidable opponent to anyone who places their ego and ideology ahead of clear facts and sound logic.”
— Michel Jacques Gagné, Author of Thinking Critically About the Kennedy Assassination, and host of the Paranoid Planet podcast.

“No reasonable person can possibly take any of Jim Garrison’s conspiracy theories seriously after reading this book. Good job, Fred Litwin!”
— David Von Pein, Author of Beyond Reasonable Doubt: The Warren Report and Lee Harvey Oswald’s Guilt and Motive 50 Years on [with Mel Ayton]

”Litwin exposes JFK assassination absurdities the way The Amazing Randi exposed spoon bending illusionists. His latest is a necessary source book illuminating an abomination in US history where a libel was cloaked in an enthralling conspiracy theory. Litwin challenges us to ask ourselves: do we want the truth or to believe what feels more exotic than the truth?”
 Eric Dezenhall, author of Wiseguys and the White House and Best of Enemies [with Gus Russo]

“Jailed For Kennedy” Book Trailer

mattkprovideo.com/2023/02/03/jailed-for-kennedy-book-trailer-2/

Fred Nick Ciacelli’s new book “Jailed for Kennedy.”

Nick Ciacelli was famous for having one of the world’s largest private collections of President John F. Kennedy memorabilia.

He even owned the duplicate 1961 Presidential Limousine used in every Kennedy assassination movie. It would be shipped from Ciacelli’s garage in Florida to Dallas, Texas to repeat and re-repeat that infamous turn into Dealey Plaza. (The actual limousine in use on Nov 22, 1963 is at the Henry Ford Museum in Michigan.)

A description of his book:

“All this began the moment Fred Nicholas Ciacelli came home from the 4th grade to see his mother crying about the death of the President.
Unknowingly his life would change forever.
Meeting US Presidents, hobnobbing with movie stars, a visit to the oval office, Air Force one, and many more Hollywood and TV Kennedy Productions,
called to use his iconic Duplicate 1961 Lincoln.
The collection also landed Mr. Cia celli in jail for a year serving a contempt of court charge for refusing to hand over 100% of his collection.
Take a historical walk with him on his journey in the shadow of President Kennedy

The book will be available on Amazon and Barnes & Noble.

This video was created with Photographs supplied to me by Mr. Ciacelli, and then cut up and layered with Adobe Photoshop, then animated into motion graphics with Adobe After Effects and Adobe Premiere.

On the Trail of Delusion Book Trailer

A book trailer I produced!

Fred Litwin’s book “On the Trail of Delusion” tells us the truth about Jim Garrison, (the New Orleans District Attorney,) who claimed he “solved” the Kennedy mystery of the John F Kennedy assassination in 1967.

This book tells us how D.A. Jim Garrison persecuted an innocent gay man in order to spout his unfounded conspiracy theories.

There is also a story of bribery and intimidation, the tale of his attempt to charge a dead man with being a grassy knoll assassin, the (former) Marine Corp member he believed was a ‘second Oswald,’ several con artists who turned the tables and fooled Garrison, the application of so called of truth serum and ” hypnosis” to recover memories, the ugly story of Oliver Stone’s homophobic film “JFK,” and a lawyer from Montreal who found himself falsely accused of operating an international assassination bureau.

There’s even a chapter with “flying saucers” !

And a whole lot more.

This video book trailer was created with Adobe Photoshop and Adobe After Effects and Adobe Premiere. I did the narration voice (Of course that is the legendary CBS newsman Mike Wallace’s voice at the beginning). I originally made this horizontal, but I have heard that vertical “Reels” get more views these days. We shall see.

Work Samples for S.A.B.O.R.

Work Samples for S.A.B.O.R.

Greetings Creative Team of San Antonio Board of Realtors.

I have a background in film and video production and post production, animation and photography. For the past decade I have been doing video and social media marketing for a variety of companies in San Antonio and Austin. I know all about shooting and editing audio and video and posting clips online, and could easily produce your podcasts and promos.

I currently work two part time jobs for Texas Revolution Music and Glass Geeks, in addition to a lot of freelance gigs.


Here are the work samples we talked about:
I work for Texas Revolution Music LLC as a marketing consultant, making promotional videos, posters and flyers.
Here are some of my best promo videos for them:


For this “Rock of Ages” spot, I came up with the concept, wrote the script, did all of the 2D cartoon animation (in Adobe Animate/Adobe Animate) and Adobe Photoshop. The concert footage was pulled off of YouTube ( shot by the bands fans) and cleaned up in Adobe After Effects. That’s even my voice in the narration. I edited the final project in Adobe Premiere.

All the same tools were used in this spot, and I shot most of the concert footage myself:

This was created from footage supplied by the bands, and 2D Animation created by me with Adobe Animate, Photoshop and After Effects:

A poster I made for this show, re-using the Photoshop graphics I created for the video:

POSTER March 26b flat

No concert footage of the bands was available for this spot, so I improvised with Photoshop and After Effects:

Here are some other hard rock posters I created in Photoshop:

Some other random Photoshop projects:

http://www.facebook.com/media/set/?set=a.422899395078648&type=3

This is an Amazon.com product video I created for polart.com:

At Glass-Geeks, I shoot and edit video, and make social media graphics.

This is a hiring/recruitment video I shot and edited:

That same company had me create a real estate video, showing off some spare office space they wanted to rent out:

Then we realized that FaceBook Reels get more views than a YouTube link, and instead of reformatting the existing footage, I simply re-shot the piece with the camera aligned vertical:

(Note, I am sending you the YouTube links, but ALL of the videos I am sending you were also directly uploaded the FaceBook for maximum marketing impact.

In addition to my B.A. in Radio-TV-Film from Rowan University in New Jersey, I also have a certificate in 2D Animation from Austin Community College, thus I often add animated graphics to my videos for visual appeal:

I co wrote, shot and edited this commercial promoting Glass-Geeks’ roof cleaning service:

Interviews I shot and edited for a Texas Politician:

A 2D cartoon I drew, animated and did two of the voices for:

A real estate video I shot and edited for SaRealtyWatch.com:

This is probably my most advanced promo video. Written and directed by the client, shot, edited and animated by me:

DreamJet Car detailing hired me to shoot, edit and create the animated graphics for a series of promo spots such as:

An animated commercial I created for Jamie Johnson Insurance in San Antonio:

Arden Innovations had me shoot and edit this commercial for their new CPAP Hose Life:

A car repair commercial I made for Precision Auto Masters:

At Agellum Life I did product videography, color correction and motion graphics for numerous spots that were edited together by someone else in the company:

An animated promo video I made for them:

Thank you for reading this, and I look forward to working with you.

Sincerely,
