My friend McKenna showed me this ‘meet the candidates’-style video from The Edmonton Journal, and I really dug its novel approach to the important but inevitably dry candidate profile video.
I recently produced candidate profiles for two mayoral [...]
Perennial challenges of election night: Local candidates’ election HQs are small and crowded, making it difficult to maneuver, or set up a tripod. (See awful, awful shaky-ass intro above) Ethical conundrum: Does eating the free pizza compromise my objectivity? IT’S TOO LOUD. I have an OK time with sound if I use my Zoom [...]

A while back, I did a 140-character-at-a-time interview with Dave Lartigue, a Springfield resident and one of the folks behind the highly popular @FakeAPStylebook Twitter feed, which landed its creators a book deal just days after its creation.
