John Pagonis talks about his new haunted house attraction, Insomnia, part of the Guthrie Haunts Scaregrounds. Insomnia is their brand new interactive haunt where guests will have to interact with the actors in order to escape.
I filmed this yesterday during my trip to Guthrie. I love getting to see the behind-the-scenes of haunted houses to learn what makes them scary and fun. The video doesn’t contain any spoilers. While in Guthrie, I also did an interview with The Boarding House, which will be next week’s featured video.
Be sure to check my script horror/comedy series, Quarter Minutes.
Not For Sale presents accomplished artists from the graffiti community in a showcase in Oklahoma Contemporary’s gallery setting. This one-of-a-kind show included 10 artists who have been integral to the Oklahoma graffiti scene, each of whom painted their works directly on Oklahoma Contemporary’s gallery walls.
Featured artists include: SKER, JASPYR, CODAK, SADAT, HEK, SEAPO, GERM, ENTAKE, MANIK and RHAK.
I filmed these interviews with Chris and Angel when the artists were working on the art last weekend. Today, Oklahoma Contemporary had a media preview where I filmed the b-roll of the finished art. If you can, go see it for yourself. It opens tonight and will be around for a few months.
Showing that science is for everyone, “Yes! Science!” is my new science documentary and demonstration series that features a rotating roster of women and minority individuals in STEM fields. Videos discuss topics of science, career profiles, and fun experiments. Think of the show as a documentary series crossed with TED Talks and Bill Nye.
To kick off the series is a profile video on Dr. Elaine Hamm.
Currently, Dr. Elaine Hamm manages the research and operations of a portfolio of startup biotechnology companies alongside an experienced team at Accele BioPharma and Accele Venture Partners, a biotechnology accelerator and venture fund that identifies, funds, and manages early-stage life science companies.
Dr. Hamm has eight years of professional leadership experience in the commercialization of early-stage pharmaceutical therapeutics and diagnostics with expertise in technology transfer, market analysis, and commercialization of preclinical and clinical stage products. She has designed and served as the Director for several start-up accelerator programs. Dr. Hamm also has experience in equity and non-equity funding of early-stage companies and, in three years, closed almost $8M in equity investment deals, with a focus in the pharmaceutical industry.

Dr. Hamm received her Ph.D. in Microbiology from the University of Oklahoma and holds several licensed US and International patents.
Quarter Minutes is back for a second season! To start off the new season is the short, Parallel Travels. Parallel Travels tells a tale of getting a parallel universe travel device to work.
For this season, I’m more open to the idea of making the videos longer than 15-seconds, but I’m still keeping the theme of exploring the multiverse to capture glimpses of strange and seemly normal oddities. For example, the first three videos we’ve made are each about a minute long. We’ll also be doing some parodies too and we’ve already filmed one on Stranger Things.
Stay tuned as new videos will be released on Mondays. For updates, follow Quarter Minutes on Facebook, Twitter, YouTube, and here as well. If you love what we’re doing, want to see more, and before everyone else, became a patron.
This video featured the talents of Dennis Spielman, Daniel Austin, Pallas, Robyn Wheelock, and the OKC Tornado Siren.
