We shot so many damn Klingon bits for 2006. Well, saying "we" is actually a misnomer here, as I wasn't present for the footage that was used to make these up. However, I was tasked with editing most of them.

My first attempt at editing video for dragon*conTV. I shot about half the footage for this spoof as well as did the post-editing.
Fun fact! If you keen viewers out there recognize the background image that's hiding the green screen, it may be because you saw it here.
This is, to date, my Tour de Force, if such a thing exists for spoof videos made by volunteers on a nonexistent budget for a convention on Labor Day weekend.
My friends Brian and Patrick filmed a day's worth of these great sports in Klingon garb dancing in a community center. They had no real script or idea for the commercial, just the footage. I remember talking to Brian, and getting a response something like, "Try to do something with it."
So here's what I came up with. The "script" took a couple of hours of reviewing the shots and then about fifteen minutes of putting them down on a stickie note. I think it came out pretty well, considering.
I also decided to use pseudonyms, since I think that having my name in the credits more than once for such a short video comes off as a bit pretentious. So, for the record, Melvin Ferd and El Duckie Caliente are also yours truly.
I am not, however, Clay Leapheart. That's a real person. (I think.)

Thank Goth I don't appear in this video, although it is one of the more hilarious skits I've been involved in the filming of. I shot behind-the-scenes footage for this one.
This was produced for [dragon*conTV] in 2005. I was thrown into this with about a five-minute warning, and the crew (read: Brian) wouldn't let me take a shower before we shot the segment. Really, that's why I look so bad.
