SOPA – PIPA: Join the Fight
Jan 20th
There are two very important pieces of legislature that is being considered by Congress: SOPA & PIPA. These bills are terrible in that they will irrevocably harm Internet freedom. I would go into more detail here, but I think a visual aid is a far better tool. This is a video I directed to help combat these bills. Made for StopTheWall.us via Engine Advocacy and Christian Dawson
Animation: Brian & Chris Pennington w/ DUO Media Productions Writers: Christian Dawson, Thomas Wilson, and myself Sound: DUO Media & Sean Richwine Directed by: Me (Boom Shadow)

Mar 16th
“The Bet” is the type of humorous film that one could imagine themselves sitting around doing the same thing with their friends. The wit is so wonderfully right up there with “Know how I know you’re gay?” jokes, but with more class.

Definitely Do Not Push This Button
Sep 25th
A close group of friends made this video a while back, Star Wipe Films http://www.starwipefilms.com. This was a T-mobile ad contest for the new (at the time) G1 phone. The winning entry was to be used in a national ad campaign from what I understand. Though they didn’t win, I still love the product. I personally was, unfortunately, not part of this particular video.
Every video put out by this group is always so entertaining and so well made. Granted, I am a member but that does not affect my judgement. I have been part of numerous other groups and projects More >
