I’m excited to share today’s debut installment of Oklahoma Contemporary‘s new video series, Illuminations, with an interview on Yatika Fields about his journey as an artist, the colors of nature and the joys of ultramarathon running.
I was hired by Oklahoma Contemporary to shoot and edit the video. There are more episodes to come. Be sure to read the full blog post on their website.
In collaboration with 84 Hospitality and the Oklahoma City Arts Council, I recorded a live-performance of Susan Herndon & The Bella Counsel inside Empire Slice House in Oklahoma City’s Plaza District for Art Moves. Art Moves is an Arts Council OKC initiative that provides free arts events in downtown OKC each workday from Noon-1:00, however, during the COVID-19 pandemic, the format has changed to streaming to promote social distancing and to let people stay inside.
In collaboration with Humankind Hospitality and the Oklahoma City Arts Council, I recorded a live-performance of Chase and Emily McCumber outside Picasso Cafe in Oklahoma City for Art Moves. Art Moves is an Arts Council OKC initiative that provides free arts events in downtown OKC each workday from Noon-1:00, however, during the COVID-19 pandemic, the format has changed to streaming for social distancing.
Embedded above is the edited version, which has some fancier angle changes, audio/color balancing, different lower-thirds, and other minor improvements.
I’ll be recording the live shows when my schedule allows me to help. Enjoy the first performance!
In this first installment showcasing Oklahoma Pies, I visited five places in the Oklahoma City area. This episode hears from owners of chefs from Caeli’s Sweets, Eats & Bar, Heifers & Hens, Ingrid’s Kitchen, Pie Junkie, and Whole Latte Pie about the pies they offer.
For this episode, I let the owners/bakers talk about themselves and their pies. I filmed at least two takes and took the best parts for their segment. With this being a montage video, I spent about an hour at each place and most of Monday editing it all together. I love how well it turned out and how each segment stood out on their own.
If this episode does well, I got more to feature in a future installment.

I got to have some fun on the edit with this story, giving a unique flair for the episode. I hope you all enjoy it and get to check them out if you’re into craft beer. I’m working on a pie episode for next week and I’ve filmed four pie places so far, with one more scheduled for Saturday. I’m also doing some interviews in Norman with Yellow Dog Coffee and Sergio’s. Client work has been keeping me busy hence last week’s event recap videos. I do hope to share the stuff I’ve been working with Oklahoma Contemporary with you soon. The new building and upcoming opening exhibition are amazing.
