Brett’s Workplace Story

An example of the workplace storytelling videos I produced at Avanoo. My team and I created hundreds of these stories annually. My role typically spanned production management, direction, interviewing, and rough-cut editing.

Skeptics

A short documentary about that most curious of creatures, the skeptic. Featuring Phil Plait (badastronomy.com) and members of SSaSS, the Secular Students and Skeptics Society (ssassatcu.blogspot.com). Produced for a graduate class at the University of Colorado School of Journalism.

Homebrew

A short documentary about my friends Julie and Eric, who brew their own beer in small batches. Produced for a graduate class at the University of Colorado School of Journalism.

What Causes The Tides?

An audio slideshow response to Bill O’Reilly’s repeated assertions that nobody can explain how ocean tides work. Produced for a graduate class at the University of Colorado School of Journalism. I also highly recommend watching the Colbert Report’s coverage of this from 6 Jan, 2011 (Google “Colbert O’Reilly tides”).

BalloonSat Launch (NewsTeam Boulder)

A news package I produced with my partner, Leila Bighash, for a graduate class at the University of Colorado School of Journalism. We followed a group of engineering undergraduates as they launched and recovered a weather balloon, which carried small data-collecting “satellites” into the upper atmosphere. This package aired in the lead slot on NewsTeam Boulder, the University’s student news webcast, on 16 Nov., 2010.
