The Beat: Sounds from the Underground ~Promo~
“The Beat: Sounds from the Underground” features local Sonoma County bands who were recorded live to tape in the studio. On many shows I shot interviews which were mixed post production into the set. I taped the interviews, edited the show and usually authored the DVD and designed the artwork. We had an average crew of 15 volunteers and ran 5-6 cameras. The use of volunteers was deliberate. The purpose was to advance an important aspect of the mission of the show: to train media center members in studio production. We had skill levels from beginners to experienced and everyone pitched in. The crew made improvements with video, sound, lighting and general organization with each new production. It was a really fun show to do – all the crew had a great time! They must have because the show retained most of the original volunteers from show # 1 and continued to recruit new CMC members until its final show. (Maybe it was the Thai food in the canteen?)

Inspiration by Hand – Event Teaser
The most interesting extended promo/teaser video you’ll watch. I edited this for the north coast artists guild art walk.
CLIENT TESTIMONIAL
“My personal experience working with Jill as a video production
professional was a delight. Jill Newman, always a stickler for
attention to detail and clarity is also very intuitive in her
ability to reflect the director’s desires while editing! In a
relatively short interview she was able to determine how I wanted to
present my artists and what the goal of the promotional video would
be, matching my vision for our production collaboration. Amazingly
she was able to edit my 14 hours of video to the required 16 minutes
while capturing the essence of 27 talented artists on the NorthCoast
Artists’ Studio Tour for 2011!“

Santa Rosa Idol Roll-In
Ok this is pretty corny, but then so was the Idol contest. But the kids were so sweet and totally invested and I enjoyed the process. Having some experience in stage/singing gave this special meaning. This promo pretty much shows what was involved, semi-finals taping, a workshop I led for the finalists, and the production and editing of a pre-contest roll-in video. Of course there’s all the other producer stuff like chasing down releases, getting bios and wrangling them during the show, etc.
