My co-workers know this bit already, but for those of you who don't, I'm headed to Beijing thanks to a short travel video piece that I shot, edited and produced as part of a class that the Travel Channel offers to the public called the Travel Channel Academy. The network is graciously putting all employees through the class, to give us a broader perspective of how video is shot and edited in this age of HD cams and high-powered editing software that can be had for under $1,000. Television production is truly moving to the masses, and the class was eye-opening for those of us at the network, like myself, who do not work in production.
As part of the class, we were required to produce a short video on a travel destination in Washington, DC, where our network is based; write a sample blog entry; and shoot a photograph in DC's Chinatown district. The top two overall submissions were sent packing to Beijing. Most people haven't seen my pieces yet, so I thought I'd post them here.
The video - A Day on the C&O Canal in Georgetown
The sample blog entry - Gone to the Dogs
And the Chinatown photo.

Nate - you forgot to mention your co-worker from marketing who was forced to sit next to you in class was your creative inspiration!
Have fun and safe travels, you earned it!
