The best place to view my complete video portfolio is my Vimeo page. Here are a few examples of that work, along with other multimedia efforts I've produced over the years. I strongly believe that motion — whether in a video, animated gif or scrolling presentation — completes the story that 3-D rendering begins to tell.
For my final Plain Dealer collaboration with our great, longtime science write John Mangels, we grubbed around the interior and exterior of CSM-117, the Skylab 3 command module on display at the Great Lakes Science Center. I've been inside this module several times. It never gets old.

Think it's strange seeing a World War 2-vintage Gato-class submarine sitting on Cleveland's Lake Erie waterfront? What if I told you it's the only remaining 100% intact Gato-class submarine? This is the only place where you can see one of these boats without hatches or gangways cut into it or concrete decks installed. And it's an amazing story.

The first 90-Second Know-It-All entry of 2013, part of The Plain Dealer's package coverage of the 75th anniversary of the creation of Superman. Produced in collaboration with the paper's 90-Second Know-It-All desk: Chris Morris (illustration) and Jon Fobes (music and sound design.)

A wacky little number I ginned up a few years ago for a story by the Plain Dealer's Chuck Yarborough. Click on a bison chunk to learn about it (it says mouse over, but click it). Bison voice by yours truly. It's loud, so watch your volume.
