Dance Music Video/Recitals Wedding Videography Creating A Small Business
Many people wonder what their purpose is in life. They have trouble
understanding that it comes from within. My purpose is to make moments last
a lifetime by producing high-quality, imaginative videos. My professional goals
include harnessing clients’ ideas and encapsulating them into masterpieces.
All the works of man have their origin in creative fantasy. What right have we then to depreciate imagination.
-Carl Jung
A kid sits in the grass and presses record. His friend comes barreling down the
street on rollerblades with an exaggerated sense of confidence. As all eight
wheels contact a plastic mini-ramp, time shifts. His body soars through the air
in slow motion, completing one full rotation. The camera burns every
millisecond onto the cassette. He lands flawlessly. Excited, the kid holding the
camera stops recording and screams, “I caught that on film!” That kid was me.
I’ve always had a desire to capture people’s moments. That is why I plan to use
my production skills to assist people who believe that their moment has value.
Creation is my passion. Whether it is editing, filming, directing,
brainstorming or coordinating, I love video production. I put the client’s
needs first and use my creativity to design the product.

Dear Ms. Mayer:
Hello, I’d like to nominate Kenton Filipowicz for the business field JoAnne Day
Students of the Year Awards. Kenton has been an outstanding intern throughout
his entire internship here at Concept Commandos, LLC. Concept Commandos, LLC.
is a full-service graphic design firm offering various mutlimedia design services.
Kenton’s responsibilities ranged from filming footage for an online 3D -tour to
producing a full-length commercial including storyboarding, special fx, filming,
and editing. Other responsibilities included attending company meetings, face-
to-face client interaction, volunteering at the Mifflin County Communities that
Care Non-Profit group, online conferencing, as well as filming and editing video
intro footage for various websites.
The first project Kenton worked on was an online 3D-tour and video intro for
Robbins Paradise Ranch & Chalet. Kenton attended several meetings with
our client to learn the details of the project he would be working on. On the
production day for the 3D-tour, Kenton impressed us with his resourcefulness
by bringing his own equipement. Among his equipment was a camera dolly and
tracks he made himself. For the website’s intro-video Kenton filmed and edited
various wildlife footage on the client’s which the client highlights on her website.
One of the biggest projects Kenton worked on was filimg and editing footage
for the Millennium Dance Company located in New York, NY. The project was
coordinated with our team and the dance company to set up a date to travel to
P.O. Box 10281State College, PA 16805
conceptcommandos.com
Manhattan and film video interviews of the company’s owner, instructors, and
students, as well as class footage and dance footage for their website. This was
a two day long trip in which Kenton showed utmost professionalism throughout
the entire production.
Another one of Kenton’s responsibilities was to attend monthly meetings
at the Mifflin County Communities that Care Non-Profit Group in Lewistown,
PA. Concept Commandos, LLC. volunteers our design services to the MCCTC
which aims to the help local communities in the Mifflin County area. During his
internship, Kenton created a storyboard for a full-length TV commercial as well
as filmed and edited the commercial which was coordinated with members of
several local organizations such as:
• Mifflin County Communities that Care
• Concept Commandos, LLC.
• Granville Township Police Department
• Sacred Heart School
• Lewistown Area High School
The film production required all the members to be coordinated and filmed at
several different locations within a certain time frame for each scene in one day.
Kenton also had create special fx for the film such as smoke coming from under
the hood of a car for one of the scenes. The commercial will be aired at the
Miller Cinemas 6, Mifflin County Movie Night event, MCCTC YouTube Channel,
and television.
Throughout his entire internship this past Summer of 2011, Kenton proved
himself to be dedicated, hard working, dependable, and knowledgable in his
field. The Concept Commandos, LLC. Team as a whole was satisfied with Kenton’s
work, to the point that we have offered to keep him on our website team page as
a sub-contractor and look forward to working with him on future projects. I feel
that Kenton is an extremely worthy candidate for the business field JoAnne Day

Success Stories
In 2012, I filmed my first wedding. Weddings are
once in a lifetime events, so capturing those
moments artistically is critical. I was able to film
with multiple cameras, edit six hours of footage
into a 40 minute video, and deliver the final DVD’s
to the families. The clients received their video
three days after the wedding and were thrilled with
the end result. KF Videography now specializes in
weddings and will be participating in multiple
bridal shows in winter 2013.
Marketing and branding the KF Videography
name is an ongoing process. I’ve created
commercials, KFvideography.com, a business page
on facebook, custom T-shirts, vinyl vehicle
advertisements, flyers and much more to
broadcast my service. KF Videography uses state-
of-the-art editing software, brand new DSLR
cameras, green screen and other high quality
equipment to maintain a professional reputation.
This sole proprietorship has broadened my
knowledge of sales and law as well.
A dance team needed a music video produced for
their live performance. I filmed the dancers in
multiple settings and edited their movements to
match the rhythm. They also hired me to film the
entire dance recital. By using three cameras and
recruiting a cameraman, the project had high
production quality. I was able to distribute over 50
copies of the recital to audience members and
dancers. Each DVD had custom menus and scene
selection. I am now the exclusive videographer for
Lock Haven University Dance.
