1-minute shop videos

Project brief

Client:

CSU Monterey Bay

In my Masters of Instructional Design program, I took a course in audio and video production and editing. Assignments focused on targeted skills such as recording quality sound, editing with transitions, and creating interactive videos, among other skills. Each video was limited to 1-2 minutes, requiring careful scripting and editing decisions.

Development

Before this course, I had basic video editing experience with iMovie and Adobe Lightroom but lacked experience in producing scripted projects and recording or editing audio. I chose to learn Adobe Premiere Pro and Camtasia, industry-standard tools for instructional video production. To gain additional practice, I incorporated video work into other program projects.

The solution

Here is a selection of my most effectively produced videos. Most focus on my professional interest in woodworking and designing woodworking training programs, though I also explored other subjects for additional practice.

No items found.

The results

I produced videos not only for my multimedia course but also for projects in other classes during my master's program, including my final capstone project. Additionally, I later created videos for several prototype training programs at Humanmade.

Video examples

Turning a bowl

A short promotional video showing a montage of how to turn a small bowl on the wood lathe. Meant to encourage new members to try the wood lathe training.

Saw blade choice

A short video showing the benefits and drawbacks of the most common styles of table saw blades.

CMS training

The organization is changing from one CRM system to another. This is a brief video showing how to book workshop equipment in the new system.

What is CNC

An introduction to CNC machines at the Humanmade woodshop. What they can do, their history, and how something goes from digital design to being cut.

Concepts of CNC

E-learning module created for a hybrid training program. Participants learn key concepts before attending in-person training to apply those concepts.

Hybrid equipment training

An e-learning module created to test a hybrid training approach. It can also act as an interactive job-aid reference for woodshop users after training.

Youth makerspace program

A youth exposure program designed for Summit Shasta high school to introduce students to traditional and mondern manufacturing techniques used in a makerspace.

Training manuals update

This project involved updating and standardizing the training material available to participants in Humanmade's makerspace FSO (Fundamental Safety & Operations) training sessions.

Foundations of Woodworking

A project-based introduction to the essential skills required in the modern woodshop. Students are introduced to power tool safety and workflows while completing a series of craft projects.
