Tip of the Week

 


From Animoto:

Seamlessly add video to your photo shoots.

Whether you go back and forth between cameras or use a DSLR with video capability like the Canon 5D Mark II, you don't want to miss the perfect shot because you were shooting video. Rod Evans, the world famous photographer behind Evans Portraits studio and founder of rodevans.tv, has come up with a clever solution to the challenge of shooting video without distracting from your photography.

Rod Evens

Rod uses a cell-phone sized Flip Mino HD to capture 720p video during his photo shoots. The Flip is small and light enough that Rod can attach it to his camera, hit the record button, and forget that it's even there! While there are great brackets on the market, Rod uses one he constructed out of spare parts.

After the shoot, Rod grabs some short highlights from the video footage to add to an Animoto video. He likes adding video clips to his Animoto shows to tell a deeper story, thereby creating a high-end product clients love. A true testament to the value of adding video clips to your Animoto videos, one wedding photographer we recently spoke with successfully increased the price of his Animoto videos from $150 each to $700 each after he added video!  This photographer is now making an extra $13,000/year just by adding a few video clips to his Animoto videos.

5th Annual "Risk Takers, Dream Makers" Awards Luncheon  
 
Dual Featured Awardees of the Day Are:
 
Non-Profit Organization Award:
Test 3 
United One Productions
United One Productions is a non-profit organization with a simple mission: To create Unity in our Community and to revitalize and restore 'broken' Neighborhoods and 'broken' souls by providing intervention, motivation, hope and opportunity for positive growth and direction, especially for the youth.  United One Productions hosts numerous events throughout the year to raise money and awareness for 'Bringing Broken Neighborhoods Back to Life' to promote within our community this change, discipleship and unity. 
 
Our second passion is to raise up our youth and provide them with tools, resources and positive environments to use their God-given gifts to give back to their community.  One of our largest events has become one of Fresno's preeminent charitable events; the Christian Music Awards.  This nationally televised event combines already established and well-respected Christian Artists with the 'Best of the Blessed' stars of the future.  We host The "Blessed of the Blessed" competition to allow these up and coming artists to share this platform, while the Christian Celebrity Artists serve as not just performers and presenters, but also dedicate their time as mentors.
 
Beyond the Christian Music Awards, United One Productions organizes various fundraisers, outreaches and volunteer opportunities.  Find us in the inner-cites cleaning up homes and yards, hosting block parties in gang-territory neighborhoods, providing groceries to individuals and just plain being available to listen. 
United One Productions collaborates with our local law enforcement, local business owners and individuals as well as corporations and other non-profit organizations to partner in the cause of meeting all tangible and spiritual needs.  United One Productions through these efforts has donated hundreds of thousands of dollars to meet the most basic needs of our community.
 
 
Fresno County Community Leader Award:
Test 3 
Alysia Sofios
Reporter, Fox Television Channel 26

Alysia Sofios is an award-winning journalist who is known in the Fresno area for her exclusive stories about the Marcus Wesson murders.  She was the first reporter to hear about the story from police and the only reporter to obtain interviews with most of Wesson's family.  

Sofios majored in journalism at Michigan State University.  In 2000, she became a reporter and anchor at Fox affiliate WSYM in Lansing, Michigan. She was recognized by the Michigan Association of Broadcasters for her work covering the local impact of the Iraq War.  She later accepted a reporting position at Fox affiliate KMPH in Fresno, California, where she remains as a reporter.  She has covered the Scott Peterson and Marcus Wesson trials. Several of her stories have appeared on Fox News and CNN.

When local television reporter Alysia Sofios was assigned to investigate the worst mass murder in the history of Fresno, California, the breaking news lead soon became something much more - a hope-filled relationship that changed the lives of both the young reporter and the survivors of an unimaginable crime.
FOR DECADES, the family of Marcus Wesson - his wife, Elizabeth, and seventeen children - lived sequestered in a social and emotional prison of Wesson's creation. None of the children ever had a childhood; going to school, playing with friends, going on dates - all were forbidden. Together, they endured his tyrannical reign of physical, sexual, and mental abuse.

Then, in 2004, as a family confrontation erupted into a harrowing standoff, with police and SWAT teams descending on the small blue house on West Hammond Avenue, Marcus Wesson murdered nine of his children. The television reporter who got the first tip about Wesson's arrest, Alysia Sofios, would ultimately cover the case through Wesson's trial. She quickly learned that the surviving female family members - Elizabeth, Rosie, Kiani, and Gypsy - had nowhere to go but the streets. Torn between journalistic objectivity and her desire to help them, Sofios risked her job and her life by taking them into her home and helping integrate them into society.
Here, these brave survivors candidly recount their traumatic past and look to a bright future that now holds plans and dreams they never thought possible - from college to careers to families of their own.

But the connections between Sofios and her newfound family deepened beyond anything anyone could have anticipated - a bond of mutual caring and healing that was put to the test when Sofios suffered serious injuries in a car accident and found the Wesson women by her side to see her through her recovery.

5th Annual "Risk Takers, Dream Makers" Awards Luncheon
 
Dual Featured Awardees of the Day Are:
Test 3 
Youth Award
Juan Cardona
Freshman, Edison High School

Juan Cardona has had many challenges in his life that he has had to overcome, from learning to speak English when he was 6 years old to smaller ones such as making the cut as a player on his 5th grade basketball team. The biggest challenge of all took place recently when he spoke in front of hundreds of people, including the City of Fresno's Chief of Police, Councilmember's, and United States Congressmen. He wanted to share with them the challenges he has faced in his life, his dreams for the future and his goals as an advocate for the DREAM ACT so that other youth are able to achieve their dreams.
 
Every year 65,000 undocumented seniors graduate high school. Because they have no citizenship in the United States it is difficult for them to go on to college and follow their dreams. Juan is a youth leader with Faith In Community and is working hard to pass the Dream Act so that those undocumented students can continue on to follow their dreams. He wants to continue to be a "Youth Voice" for the Dream Act by participating in meetings at his church, being involved in rallies, and going to Washington D.C. to show how important legislation is for many youth.
 
Juan has maintained a 4.0 GPA for five years and wants to continue having a 4.0 throughout high school to help him get into college. He feels working hard and having a good GPA feels amazing and would like to attend Stanford University because it is known to have the best Medical School. His career goal is to be a Doctor.  Juan has lived in Fresno for eight years and wants to become a doctor so that he can give back to his community. A community he feels has given so much back to him.
 
Juan is involved in many different extracurricular activities. He has been involved in sports like soccer, basketball, tennis, baseball, football, and volleyball and doesn't think he will ever stop. Juan has always been a team player and enjoys helping his friends with just about anything. He has helped at his church as an alter server and is currently involved in Faith In Community Ministry officiated by Monsignor Rob to help make the community safer for youth and adults. In Junior high he was a member of CJSF, a scholarship program that involves community service. Juan is currently in the GATE Program and has been ever since the fourth grade. He believes this to be amazing.
 
Juan's next big challenges are to obtain scholarships to pay for college, work hard to bring the DREAM ACT to fruition, and continue to help make his community safer for all. Juan's parents are his biggest role models and have always been there for him. He hopes to finish college so that he can support them since they have sacrificed so much for him. He thanks Fresno West Coalition for Economic Development for giving him the honor of being a recipient at this year's Risk Takers Dream Makers Awards Luncheon.
 

Test 3

Coast To Coast Petroleum LLC,
 DBA Chevron

Sylvesta M. Hall, President
 
 
Born in Palestine, Texas in 1957 to Wilbert (K.C.) Hall and Cameal McQueen, Sylvesta M. Hall made his way to California two days after he was born. From 1957 through 1975 Fresno was his home until twelve days after he graduated from Edison High School Class of 1975. Upon graduating from high school he realized that Fresno did not offer much hope for African Americans.
 
He watched over the years during the 1960's-1970's, how resources were taken out of  West Fresno and moved to northern Fresno, which started the still existing stigma of negative stereotypes. He along with the majority of people of color, were victims of this exodus of resources from West Fresno.
 
While studying at San Diego State University, where he received his Bachelors of Science in Business Marketing, he looked at business models in Fresno, and all the data pointed investment toward northern Fresno. His study also showed that business leaders and politicians were at the head of this promotion of northern Fresno. There was no denying that between the years of 1960 through 2000 there had been a concerted effort of neglect in West Fresno by business, political, and educational leaders to leave West Fresnans disenfranchised. This fact was not up for debate, you need only look at the city's current geographic, social, educational, and economic conditions.
 
As citizens of West Fresno he feels that we have to hold our City of Fresno's business leaders, politicians, and educators responsible for their past neglect of West Fresno and see that the citizens of West Fresno share in benefits of the revitalization of our community. Currently there is a curriculum being taught at Edison Computech Junior High & Edison High School that disproportionately represents the citizens of West Fresno, of which both are located in the heart of our community.
 
Mr. Hall personally challenges Fresno Unified School District, the Principals of Edison Computech Junior High and Edison High School to look at this injustice and put a plan into action that will guarantee the children of West Fresno the best curriculum in this city and in their own neighborhoods. He feels that there are several development projects that are on going in West Fresno in which the citizens and business leaders of West Fresno need to have a share. It is the responsibility of the Citizens of West Fresno, The City of Fresno Government, and the Fresno Redevelopment Agency to see that West Fresnans do not end up sharecroppers in their own neighborhoods. He believes that ownership of property and business is the economic foundation of any people; and the ownership of property and business helps lead to better education, health care, and an overall higher quality of life.
 
Sylvesta also challenges the citizens of West Fresno and those that grew up in West Fresno to join Coast to Coast Petroleum and many other community organizations and leaders in restoring West Fresno to its grandeur. He states, "I appeal to the rich that have graduated from Edison High School to come back home and reinvest in your school and community. Edison High School needs a new gymnasium, library, field house, and its own home football stadium".
 
Sylvesta Hall pleas for the many German, Italian, Chinese, Japanese, Armenian and African Americans that have graduated from Edison High School that have turned North with their resources to return to their alma mater," Your investment along with the current push of indigenous citizens,  business leaders and educators  can make all the difference".
