Ales of Indiana website

This site was set up to help us raise money to travel to the many breweries in Indiana.

Capstone Ideas...

   Before getting the chance to work with Joe on the Ales of Indiana doc, I was planning on creating a "lost trailer" for Star Wars by cutting up all of the movies then taking the best battle scenes from them and splicing it all together. Then I would remove the sound and add my own sound effects and music. There were questions as to whether or not I would need to get permission from Lucasfilm in order to do this since it was for a capstone project so I dropped the idea and was looking for something to do when I was approached by Joe to share the Ales of Indiana doc. 

What is a Capstone?

   To me the Capstone project should show off as many of the new skills you have learned in school as possible. They should be mini professional productions that teach you how to do those things in the real world. Ideally they should be good enough to get you a job on the outside.

Ales of Indiana!!!

   I have already begun work on my capstone with Joe Milton. He and I are working together on the Ales of Indiana documentary.
   Originally I was asked by Joe Milton to assist him with the filming of his doc about Indiana breweries. Susan Tennant suggested I score the doc and use that as my capstone. Joe thought that was a fine idea but as time went on he asked me if I just wanted to split the doc with him and have it be by capstone as well. I agreed and here we are.
   I am in the middle of putting together the first promo video for the doc.
