Drum Corps: Round II

Last summer, I dove headfirst into the drum & bugle corps world, working all summer as a videographer for the Boston Crusaders Drum & Bugle Corps. I returned to the corps’ media team for the corps’ 75th Anniversary season as a videographer and webmaster. The majority of our 2014 media team returned, meaning we didn’t […]

A Summer of Drum Corps

This summer I was fortunate to accept a position as a videographer for the Boston Crusaders Drum & Bugle Corps. Before this summer, I never thought I would be able to professionally follow and document the marching arts. One of the instructors of my high school marching band had told me about the position which opened my eyes to this new opportunity to combine two of my passions: music & video.

I really had no clue what I was getting myself into, and now I know that drum corps is one of those activities you only truly understand by living it. Most people would gawk at the thought voluntarily dedicating their entire summer to traveling overnight on buses, sleeping on the floor in local high schools, and spending all day on a sunny field in the 100 degree heat.

Kasteel Well Video Project: “Okay” by Barefoot Truth

When I left Boston to live in the Europe for 3 months, I knew I wanted to come home with something special and different to remember my travels by.  Seeing as music has such an impact on my life, I decided to create a music video while I was gone.  I wanted to pick a song that I felt would make me smile every time I had to sing it while recording, every time I had to listen to it while editing and most importantly every time I watched it after it was done.

Kasteel Well Spring 2013 presents…!

I’m very happy to announce the release of a special project we’ve been working on!  Kasteel Well Spring 2013 presents: “Life’s A Happy Song” from The Muppets (2011)!

I took the helm directing & editing the music video, but was it was not possible without Annie Lefley who created all of the choreography & all of the graphics in the video.  Without her help, I would probably be sitting in a corner wishing we had finished the video.  A special thanks to everyone that helped with the project – it would not be here without you!

Kasteel Well Week 11: Croatia

I had never considered traveling to Croatia before I heard my friends from the previous semester start talking about their trip. Their stories were wonderful enough until I saw their pictures. I gathered a few friends to travel with; we booked our trip and began to get excited. The more excited we got, the more […]
