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 I originally made this horizontal, but I have heard that vertical “Reels” get more views these days.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.

This is essentially the same book trailer, but with the After Effects compositions done in horizontal 3840 by 2160:

Oswald Rabbit Test

2D animated cartoon footage made with Adobe Animate ( Nee Flash) and Adobe After Effects.

The logo is stacked layers to give it a 3D look.

I added adjustment layers of GLOW, BLACK & WHITE, GRAIN, CONTRAST and DUST.

Of course, this isn’t really the work of Oswald’s copyright owners. Its an experiment in making video look like aged Black and White film.

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:

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,
