Gardening outside your house
I shot and edited this video Friday. The Oklahoman’s Jim Stafford called me, said he was working on a Sunday story and needed video to go with his interview. Said he had contacted Bob Waldrop and wanted to show his garden just outside his house.
Unfortunately my mic kit was acting up so I went with the shotgun mic. You’ll notice the loudness of the passing cars, chirping birds, airplanes, sirens… Even a cat jumped out of nowhere to knock over a cup.

Bike to work week fun video
Yes, really.
One of The Oklahoman’s business reporters, Don Mecoy, approached me with a video idea last week. He and his fellow reporters from the Biz desk were working on alternate methods of getting to work stories. With gas prices high, people have options: bike, bus, walk (ok, maybe not walk) and other stuff.
So Don Mecoy, who has a couple nice bikes, decided he would bike to work from Edmond. Read his account here. Jim Stafford would ride the bus.
David Jones and Kyle Roberts shot Mecoy as he rode to work, about 10 miles. Stafford took a hand held camera on the bus as he rode from Edmond to downtown – past The Oklahoman’s office – to catch the right ride to the office.
Kyle edited together a classic piece. Mecoy and Stafford were great sports and good to work with. It’s not your routine gas price package.
