Made for the Portland Art Museum’s 2020 Annual Meeting, this video uses footage from the past year to demonstrate the resiliance of the instituation during the COVID-era. The visual style is intended to draw a parallel between the digital and physical space.

This one was fun. When I started working at the Museum in December, 2016, I heard all about the availability of the collection that is searchable online. I pitched the idea of making a video about it with Maggie Hanson, the Head of Library & Collections Information. She was very excited by the idea, but dozens of other projects got in the way. One year later, we rolled up our sleeves and found a way to make learning about a website fun.

This is one example from a series of videos for the map is not the territory, a 2019 exhibition at Portland Art Museum featuring eight artists from the Pacific Northwest.

Rob Rhee is a collector of accidents, a rubbernecker. He is an interdisciplinary artist, writer, and organizer of collaborative artist projects. In his current work, he pursues situations on the precipice of formlessness, where a system is engaged but not controlled.

Conservation treatment on Roy Lichtenstein's "Bruststrokes" recently took place in front of Portland Art Museum's Mark Building. "Brushstrokes" was installed to commemorate the opening of the Mark Building in 2005 and is ready for its routine paint refresh.

Arlene Schnitzer, who passed away shortly after this interview was filmed, was a massive supporter of the arts in the Pacific Northwest. This video was created to honor her at a banquet and press conference celebrating a $10M donation to the Portland Art Museum.

This video was created to commemorate the 20th Anniversary of the French American Museum Exchange - framemuseums.org

This presentation was fully produced for a live stream event. Skip ahead to 40:24 to see examples of drone videography.

One of the hidden gems of Portland Art Museum is its library, which was part of the Museum before it even had art. It felt important to me that people learn that the library not only exists, but is a great resource for scholars, artists, and all types of art researchers.

In December, 2017, Portland Art Museum celebrated its 125th anniversary. Working with Marketing Director, Laura Bartroff, and Sara Guest from Swaim Strategies, I was able to put together what we pitched to Portland Art Museum Director, Brian Ferriso; a video scrapbook celebrating the Museum's history, emphasis on Education, and the future of the Museum.

Using After Effects’ rotoscoping feature, I was able to place different artworks by Robert Colescott behind Sharyll Burroughs.

Once a month, the Museum hosts a local artist to speak about a piece in the Museum's collection. Before I started working there, these videos were a stationary camcorder, but I felt that they deserved better. 

Luzene Hill is an Eastern Band Cherokee Artist whose work centers around violence towards women in the Native American community. In preparation for an upcoming exhibition at the Museum, Luzene wanted to perform an action that dictates the placement of her work in the gallery. I was asked by the Museum's Director of Education and Public Programs, Mike Murawski, to perhaps record this action. After a peculiar conference call, during which I said "no problem", we basically decided to create a highly stylized video that became part of Luzene's installation.

This is one of three videos produced for 2019 Members Appreciation Week, each featuring a Museum member.
