Watercolor Ponies (music video for Wayne Watson song)

Details

Description

For one of my graduate courses at Iowa State, we did some multi-media work and had to prepare projects that demonstrated our skill. Personally, I opted to not just make videos... I made *music* videos! :-)

This one features my family (yup, exploited my adorable kids when they were very young in order to get a good grade). The song is a bittersweet ballad of highs and lows of parenthood - investing in your children to see them grow, but then sadly then letting them go. Part of me would love to re-shoot the "grown-up kids" sequences to now feature my grown-up children. But I'm thanking to the brother & sister duo of Stephanie & Casey Allen for filling those roles surprisingly well!

Enjoy the mastery of my video editing skills circa Spring 1993!
