TEDxNashville video production

I've served on the TEDxNashville board and produced and edited the multicam video for other people's talks. Thirty-four speakers are below, and every one with a published video is embedded right here.

The talks

Produced and edited for TEDxNashville and TEDxNashvilleWomen. Three of them got picked up and republished by TED.com itself, which is not something you can plan for and is very satisfying when it happens.

Editing other people's talks for a few years teaches you something you cannot get from giving one. You watch, in the timeline, the exact second an audience decides whether to stay with a speaker. It is almost always earlier than anybody thinks, and it is almost never the part the speaker rehearsed hardest.

Ten questions about how you actually get paid, and my honest read on what's exposed and what isn't. No score, because a score would be a number I made up.
