Maggie Choi  - "Horrible Harry Hate: Sin Hater"
What is your video about: It's a spoof/parody on the Reebok commercial with Terrible Terry Tate. Instead of being an office linebacker, we made a Horrible Harry hate: sin hater (in a cute funny, drastic, non-offending way) just to convey simple points to an audience of teens.

editing/effects using iMovie and Gee Three plug-ins.


Allen Kaufman, Rolling Hills Estates, CA "The Tektrix - Scene One"
What is your video about: This is the opening scene (that transitions from a title sequence not included) to a recruitment video for a technical support dept. belonging to a non-profit organization. The complete project, 9+ minutes in length, is called "The Tektrix" (which, of course, is based on the ever-popular sci-fi hit, The Matrix). In the overall story, the main hero, Neon, is trying to find meaning to his life by seeking the right volunteer dept. in which to invest his time and talents. We do not meet Neon in this opening scene however, but we are introduced to his counterpart, the lovely Trinitron - who is almost captured trying to perform a crucial technical feat before the mission fails... narrowly escaping the clutches of villain Usher Smith.

How did you make your video: Although many of the other scenes in "The Tektrix" were composited in AfterEffects, post-produced in Commotion and/or edited in Media 100, Scene One (and another scene called "Mobeus") were edited completely in iMovie utilizing Gee Three's transitions and effects! The audio soundtrack was remixed in Nuendo and re-imported into iMovie with added original music, original sound effects, and enhanced dialog. The final product has been published
