20/20 had produced a number of excellent programs that, on the surface, had no common theme. I grouped them into the thread of Against the Odds and wrote and produced this promotional "sizzle" reel.

Shoots in the Keys had been limited primarily to the beaches and water. The film commission sought to encourage longer shoots in order to boost revenue to the local economy. This video directly positions the Keys as a viable alternative to nearby Miami, stressing the diversity of locations and strong local support.

Client Mel Fisher Maritime Historical Society
Audience potential donors
Five years after the death of its founder, famed treasure hunter Mel Fisher, the non-profit museum bearing his name approached me about producing a video that would both honor his memory and move them forward in a new direction. The title "Building on a Dream" became the foundation for the museum's capital fundraising campaign. This excerpt highlights the costly scientific efforts behind the exhibitions and the impact of the museum's national tours.

Fantasy Fest, Key West's annual rite of fun, frivolity and fantastical costumes. This video embodies the belief that it is sometimes best to leave details for the written page, and just let the pictures entice the viewer to learn more.
Note, video quality is marginal on this clip, it’s not your browser.
