• Behind
the Scenes- Charlotte Chamber 2009 Meeting
The Annual Meeting of the Charlotte Chamber is a big event that
takes over 7 months of careful planning and preparation to produce.
My friend Ken Akers has been the Chair of the event for 17 years.
He invited me to tape the final 2 days of putting it all together.
This short video will give you an idea of the energy and hard work
that goes into making this Annual Meeting a success.

• Fire Station 2 From a Dog's Point of View
When he heard I was producing a video about Fire Station 2, Drew
Allison of Grey Seal Puppets volunteered his time and talent to
perform his Dalmatian puppet for the camera. This short segment
was meant to be a part of "If These Bricks Could Talk" Time
restraints prevented that. This is a fun piece that certainly stands,
or should I say, sits on its own.

• Perpetual Bloomer
Like the quilt designed by one of its longtime members, the Americus Quilting Club is a "Perpetual Bloomer" that continues to grow and flower. Since its inception nearly nine decades ago, the club has fostered fellowship among its members, preserved and furthered the tradition of hand quilting, and created communal works of art for charitable causes.
This video takes us inside the quilting circle where we hear the women's individual stories, watch their practiced hands stitch the quilts, and discover valuable lessons about craft, tradition, community and survival.
Established in 1915 by the Ladies Aid of the Americus Union Church, the Americus Quilting Club is the second oldest active quilting club in the U.S.A. and the oldest active group in Indiana. Proceeds from the club's projects are donated to charities and to individuals in need. Members of the club meet twice a month; they also exhibit their work and demonstrate hand quilting techniques at public events throughout the year.
