Almost Live

Oh the good old days. When everyone went to their local TV channel to obtain information about the goings on in their area. In 2003-2004, one such source of pertinent local information was Cal State Hayward's very own weekly news show, Almost Live. Ok, the show was a joke but we had a lot of fun making it. These videos (and more to come) were actual assignments from college for a Broadcast News class I took. Other students, who sought careers in broadcast news, took their news shows very seriously. My group did not. Enjoy.

This episode was in response to the outcry from the other students in our class who said we "did not take things seriously enough." This video was our "serious" episode.

This episode was the 10th and final episode we made at CSUH. It features Grammy Award winning artist James Locke (not a joke) and myself. The outtakes are hilarious.

Envy

I generally am a pretty content person. I don't covet all that much. I am a happy guy. However, a couple years ago my friend Justin borrowed my video camera to film a band that was recording some songs in the building where he and his partner James (not in the gay sense) have an office. Long story short...the band they filmed was Switchfoot (a small detail he neglected to tell me until after I agreed to let him borrow the camera). Anyway, he used the footage with some other stuff that he shot in South Africa a few months prior. Below you will find the end result. It is quite cool and a must-see for any Switchfoot fan. I still havedn't talked to Justin to this day. Luckily I have Tate and Mel to make me happy.
