Tailgatin' with the SEC - Open
I was Post Production Director for WTOC's weekly college football preview. Here's the open I made.

We Are 11 - Promo
I call this my art house promo. It has pretty pictures and ambient music.

Omega Graphics
I made this concept commercial, but I don't think it ever aired. I blame the economy.

Big Switch Big Giveaway Promo
They told me to make this promo, but didn't give me anything to make it with. Behold, improvisation!

Bluffton Assembly of God
I made a commercial for a church. Ironic, right?

Economy 101 End Graphic
The station was between promotions producers, so I made this graphic as part of a sweeps promo.

Game of the Week stinger
An update to the High School Football show graphics package from a few years ago.

Georgia Southern Football Preview 2007 - Open
I think the title pretty much explains it.

Georgia Southern Football Preview 2006 - Open
And the title still pretty much explains it.

APS - Commercial
My last attempt to please particularly picky client.

Mission of Mercy - Open
This was the open to a half-hour documentary on a medical mission to Africa.

Conceptualized mainly by Craig Harney, I put together this promo to air during the Super Bowl.
