In this promo I used Filmimpact.net Volume 2 transitions. So easy and gives the promo a little more energy. I moved to Premiere Pro CS6 from Final Cut Pro 7 a year ago. In the transition to Adobe I also found transition effects that I loved so dearly in FCP7 from FXfactory didn’t work as well. […]

This spot was fun to work on. The producer had a vision and we talked about the best way to make it happen. The goal was simple. Create a spot for our fairly new investigative unit. I wanted to stay away from the news promo look of using news footage in the spot. I didn’t […]
