Penguin Employee Holiday Recommendations - 2009

The Penguin holiday video is my second video project with Penguin. This was a really fun project because I brought in all of my holiday decorations to the office and set them up at the shoot to get everyone in the holiday spirit! To top it off, I baked homemade (ish) sugar cookies and topped them with red and green sugar. My coworker brought in a Menorah for a multicultural feel, and I think everyone had a really good time when they came in to the shoot. I think that's one of the most important parts of doing a homegrown video piece... make it fun for everyone! Otherwise it's awkward and that really comes through in the final product.

I was humming Christmas Carols for a week and a half straight while I shot and edited this video! Sadly, between the candy canes, chocolates and Christmas cookies, it was not the most health-conscious of holiday videos, but I think it was totally worth it.

These are a few episodes of A Cup of Poetry that I produced in-house at the Penguin offices for the "Radio Room." People from different departments across the company come and read their favorite poems, and when the company published new collections, the poets read their work for the program.
