Commercial!

Last week I shot a PSA for the State Troopers. It was an interesting experience as I've done very little video/film stuff. The copy had been written to be about 25 seconds long, but they wanted me to do it in 24. The guy with the camera was walking about 2 feet in front of me, while I tried to walk a mostly straight line (With a gentle curve at the end). It starts airing around town on the 16th of August. I got an email that it was posted to the Troopers website today, so I grabbed it!

Check it out:

Such a good job Frank! That's tough having to walk towards the camera, not get distracted with what's going on behind you, and look into the camera for all your lines. Well done! You do a very impresive job!

Old entry, I know, but I just found your blog. Ya know, whenever I visit Alaska, I always know I'm home because I can see and hear people I know on TV and the radio.

I agree with Lindsay; very good job. Funny that you say you haven't done a lot of TV and film work, because I saw a lot of technical mastery going on with the walking and stopping and the subtle face things.
