Screenplay |

Losing Control for Love |
|
![]() |
Losing Control for Love is my first fictional short film. Although it's a movie about love and prom dates, it's much more of a comedy than you would expect. This short film features guest appearances by a few very well known teachers around Punahou campus, but even if you don't know them you're sure to enjoy this Fiction & Film project. |
"Eat Healthy" PSAs |
|
| These two PSAs were literally produced in under 48 hours by a group of Punahou students to be entered in a local HMSA video contest. Both are exactly 27 seconds in length and are supposed to promote healthy eating. I'm not sure how getting hit in the face with a bell pepper fits in with that, but we only had a short time to come up with ideas. | ![]() |
Frustration |
|
![]() |
So how do YOU spend your final hours before an exam? This short film illustrates the contrast of how different personalities chose to prepare for difficult tests, and the frustration that these differences can cause. Coincidentally, this video was conceived and produced in the three hours before our math finals. As you can see we didn't study much, but somehow we passed! |

Marvelous Marble Machine |

|
![]() |
Inspired by the folks at eepybird.com and MythBusters, we decided to carry out this phenomenal experiment for ourselves. We purchased over 50 bottles of soda and 350 mentos. The event was captured with four cameras simultaneously with help from about fifteen crew members. Now I'll never look at soda and mentos the same way ever again. |
Myspace Rant |
|
| Produced and edited in just under 8 hours, Myspace Rant is a short parody based on the Mac vs PC comercials. In this experimental clip we bash around everything we hate about the not-so-poupular website Myspace.com. This entire video was shot using a green screen to create a solid white background. | ![]() |

Step in to Mr. Asato's Asian 2:30 classroom and you would instantly feel like the middle of a live comedy performace mixed with a heated debate about ancient China. Everyone agreed that this was the most energetic and active class ever to have existed - when else could you climb up on a table and shout your opinion angrily across the room or suggest a field trip to the snack bar and have it happen? |

Other Videos |

Here is a list of most of the other videos I have edited or produced that aren't listed above. While they are all good videos, I don't feel that they qualify to be listed above since none of the footage was shot by me, and because they aren't quite as entertaining as rest of my videos.
