A Quick Trip Through Addis Ababa, Ethiopia

On our way back from Obe Kale Haywet center in the city of Obe, I turned on the camera as soon as we entered the outskirts of Addis Ababa. Our bus driver kept one hand on the wheel and the other on the horn. We were all tired of the honking and the somewhat erratic driving (although, it doesn't seem to have been out of order for the region) by the time we got back to the hotel.




Mark Warfel Bites Ethiopian Dust

From the footage taken in Ethiopia, September 2007:

After I had to jump over this muddy area on our path, I had this feeling that somebody was going to eat it, so I turned on my camera and waited for the magic to take place. Low and behold, Mr. Mark Warfel, M.C. at Creation Festivals, missed his take-off and splashed the very silty mud all over himself. Like the great guy he is, he took it in stride and we were able to laugh about it.




Ethiopia Day 1

Day 1 was such a neat day. This video could have been 2 hours long. It was such a great start to the trip. The kids have absolutely no possessions but had so much love for us just to come and visit them.

Jerry Rainey - Power of 10

My friend, Jerry Rainey, asked me to put together a video for him to submit to The Power of 10 game show. It had to be 3 minutes or less and answer some key questions.


Uprising Festival Recap

Filmed for MonsterPod.org, now VideoRocket.com, a summary of the day's events at the Uprising Festival. My son and I filmed during the day. It was a great show and the recap turned out well.
