Pinkitzel Video


Uncovering Oklahoma’s first HD video is sweet! I’ve been wanting to do this show in HD for a years and now my first HD video is online. For the latest Uncovering Oklahoma video, I interviewed Cher Casso of the fairy tale inspired candy shop, Pinkitzel. Watch the HD video to find what treats Pinkitzel offers, what makes the shop special, and the meaning of Pinkitzel’s name. More information and pictures can be found on the Pinkitzel page.

The video was shot with my new Canon Rebel T3i. It did a great job. I really liked the whole tapeless process of shooting video. Transferring clips is way faster and easier than capturing footage. The ability to switch between video and photo was wonderful and so useful.

The same day I was out filming this video, I did the first episode of my new Wild Improv Challenge series with Raychel Winstead. A few days later, I shot the second episode. So far, so good.

LIVE on the Plaza is Live!

Brand new video for Uncovering Oklahoma on LIVE on the Plaza.

LIVE on the Plaza is a monthly art walk event, held on the second friday of every month, that promotes emerging artistic talent in Oklahoma City. Plaza District businesses open their doors with monthly visual artists, performing artists and live musicians. Many special events also take place during LIVE on the Plaza, such as Lyric Theater performances, CD releases, private parties, holiday retail events and so much more. LIVE on the Plaza provides the community an opportunity to view emerging talent each month, as well as socialize with a diverse mix of artists, professionals, neighborhood residents and families. It’s a fun event worth checking out.

In the video I spoke with Plaza District Association’s Executive Director, Kristen Vails, along with Shannon Primeau of Everything Goes Dance Studio, Nathan Lawson of Gallery 1612, Lindsay Zodrow of Collected Thread, Jonathan Fowler of Fowler Volkswagen, Dylan Bradway of DNA Galleries, and Jason Duncan of Cafe Evoke.
