Periodically, I work as a camera operator for Goss' Garage, a podcast/online video channel for car repair and automotive related information. Above are two clips from their Youtube channel, which posts new videos every few weeks. The video production is run by Vidicam Productions, a Washington DC area production company that produces local commercials and production assignments along with developing the videos for the Goss' Garage Youtube channel. In addition to the channel's videos, I've worked with Vidicam Productions on numerous other assignments as both a camera operator and an editor.

I was the videographer for the production, which included setting up the lighting/audio and orchestrating all of the footage that was shot for that series of clips.
