Dance music video/recital Wedding videography Internship with Concept Commandos LLC

Many people wonder what their purpose is in life. They have trouble

understanding that it comes from within. My purpose is to make moments last

a lifetime by producing high-quality, imaginative videos. My professional goals

include harnessing clients’ ideas and encapsulating them into masterpieces.

All the works of man have their origin in creative fantasy. What right have we then to depreciate imagination.

-Carl Jung

A kid sits in the grass and presses record. His friend comes barreling down the

street on rollerblades with an exaggerated sense of confidence. As all eight

wheels contact a plastic mini-ramp, time shifts. His body soars through the air

in slow motion, completing a full rotation. The camera burns every

millisecond onto the cassette. He lands flawlessly. Excited, the kid holding the

camera stops recording and screams, “I caught that on film!” That kid was me.

I’ve always had a desire to capture people’s moments. That is why I plan to use

my production skills to assist people who believe that their moment has value.

Creation is my passion. Whether it is editing, filming, directing,

brainstorming or coordinating, I love video production. I put the client’s

needs first and use my creativity to design the product.

Ms. Erika MayerAssistant Director of Career ServicesGrove City College100 Campus Drive, Box 3141,Grove City, PA 16127

Dear Ms. Mayer:

Hello, I’d like to nominate Kenton Filipowicz for the business field JoAnne Day

Students of the Year Awards. Kenton has been an outstanding intern throughout

his entire internship here at Concept Commandos, LLC. Concept Commandos, LLC.

is a full-service graphic design firm offering various mutlimedia design services.

Kenton’s responsibilities ranged from filming footage for an online 3D -tour to

producing a full-length commercial including storyboarding, special fx, filming,

and editing. Other responsibilities included attending company meetings, face-

to-face client interaction, volunteering at the Mifflin County Communities that

Care Non-Profit group, online conferencing, as well as filming and editing video

intro footage for various websites.

The first project Kenton worked on was an online 3D-tour and video intro for

Robbins Paradise Ranch & Chalet. Kenton attended several meetings with

our client to learn the details of the project he would be working on. On the

production day for the 3D-tour, Kenton impressed us with his resourcefulness

by bringing his own equipement. Among his equipment was a camera dolly and

tracks he made himself. For the website’s intro-video Kenton filmed and edited

various wildlife footage on the client’s which the client highlights on her website.

One of the biggest projects Kenton worked on was filimg and editing footage

for the Millennium Dance Company located in New York, NY. The project was

coordinated with our team and the dance company to set up a date to travel to

P.O. Box 10281State College, PA 16805

Manhattan and film video interviews of the company’s owner, instructors, and

students, as well as class footage and dance footage for their website. This was

a two day long trip in which Kenton showed utmost professionalism throughout

the entire production.

Another one of Kenton’s responsibilities was to attend monthly meetings

at the Mifflin County Communities that Care Non-Profit Group in Lewistown,

PA. Concept Commandos, LLC. volunteers our design services to the MCCTC

which aims to the help local communities in the Mifflin County area. During his

internship, Kenton created a storyboard for a full-length TV commercial as well

as filmed and edited the commercial which was coordinated with members of

several local organizations such as:

• Mifflin County Communities that Care

• Concept Commandos, LLC.

• Granville Township Police Department

• Sacred Heart School

• Lewistown Area High School

The film production required all the members to be coordinated and filmed at

several different locations within a certain time frame for each scene in one day.

Kenton also had create special fx for the film such as smoke coming from under

the hood of a car for one of the scenes. The commercial will be aired at the

Miller Cinemas 6, Mifflin County Movie Night event, MCCTC YouTube Channel,

Throughout his entire internship this past Summer of 2011, Kenton proved

himself to be dedicated, hard working, dependable, and knowledgable in his

work, to the point that we have offered to keep him on our website team page as

Success Stories

In 2012, I filmed my first wedding. Weddings are

once in a lifetime events, so capturing those

moments perfectly is critical. I was able to film

with multiple cameras, edit six hours of footage

into a 40 minute video, and deliver the final DVD’s

to the families in less than a week. The clients

received their video 3 days after the wedding and

were thrilled with the end result.

Concept Commandos LLC, a group of graphic/

web designers, was a young company. I

called, asking for an opportunity to serve as a

videographer/intern. After being turned down a

few times, I explained that I owned the necessary

equipment, wouldn’t accept pay, and would work

for no college credit. Intrigued by my persistence,

they accepted me as their intern. The owner

stated that he was impressed with my dedication,

dependability, work ethic and knowledge of my

field.

A dance team needed a music video produced for

their live performance. I filmed the dancers in

multiple settings and edited their movements to

match the rhythm. They also hired me to film the

entire dance recital. By using three cameras and

recruiting a cameraman, the project had high

production quality. I was able to distribute over 50

copies of the recital to audience members and

dancers. Each DVD had custom menus and scene

selection.
