This fun claymation video was created as a quick reminder to salespeople from a managed service provider (MSP) that the State and Local Government and Educational Organizations (SLEDS) could use funds from the American Rescue Plan to upgrade their technology using some of the products and services provided by the MSP.  I created this while working as a contractor for this MSP, and then removed any reference to the company so that it could be posted on my portfolio.

My role:  I researched, scripted, recorded and edited the voice over, selected the music, created the animations and produced the video.

This video is an introduction to the role of driver for the local Meals on Wheels Program, to help them recruit new drivers.   

My role:  I scripted, voiced and edited this video.  In addition to using still images, I incorporated animated 3-D avatar scenes from the CreateStudio software library to engage learners.  This recruitment video is part of a learning package which includes a job aid as well as an eLearning training module which you can view on their respective pages linked here.

This easy to understand introduction to the Physics concept of "forces", explores the ways that forces in the world around us act on various objects.  It was inspired by my frequent visits to a park with the fountain featured in the video.  Although some of the video and still images were collected from Pexels (as noted in the credits at the end of this video) many of them, including the featured park fountain were images and videos which I shot.  

My role: I scripted, voiced and edited this video.

When my husband and I got married, we decided that we wanted to live frugally and set a goal to get out of debt as quickly as possible.  In spite of some financial downturns, and although we were primarily a one-income family with children, we successfully paid off our home less than 10 years after we bought it, and have been debt-free ever since.  When word got out about what we had done, I was asked to create an instructor led training and present it at a regional conference to over 100 people to inspire others to understand basic financial principles so that they could better manage their money.  

In an effort to bring this information to a larger audience, I am developing several online learning modules which break down the principles of financial goal setting, debt reduction, and personal preparedness into manageable chunks. These two videos are part of the learning module and use fictitious characters in a realistic scenario based on today's market rates to help the learner visualize what can be done if they establish core values and use those to guide their financial goals.  

My role: I scripted and edited both videos, using designs available on Doodly, as well as images downloaded from Flaticon.com.   The "Success" video was voiced using digital voices from Well Said Labs, and I created the voiceover for the video about Financial Goals and Core Values.
