(Finally!) My Most Recent Editing Reel!
I'm sorry about the wait for this, but I finally figured out the technical difficulties and I'm excited to present the much anticipated EDITING REEL...
I started out with the trailer I edited for "Life.Less". Even though I have already posted that video on this page, it shows my ability to work with a client to deliver the product they want. Secondly, I have a compilation of clips I have edited in recent years. Lastly, I have a scene from "Life.Less" to show my skills in editing a narrative. Please feel free to comment with what you like about my work or suggestions for how I can make my reel better! Thanks guys! Have an awesome day!!!

What I'm Loving Now...
Jewelry
Here are some amazing pieces I have found that I absolutely love (but definitely cannot afford)! Hopefully you all will enjoy their beauty and craftsmanship as much as I do!

| Fiona Paxton Brooklyn Necklace in Gold $288 from shopbob.com |
 |
| House of Harlow 1960 Chevron Station Necklace in Gold $225 from shopbop.com |
 |
| Pamela Love Silver Picado Necklace $400 from www.bonadrag.com |
 |
| Erickson Beamon Chain Gang Earrings in Crystal $345 from shopbop.com |
 |
| Soo Iln Kim Luca Pleated Ring in Gold $62 from shopbop.com |
These are all such unique pieces! Lately I've been really liking the juxtaposition of art deco with tribal designs, and I've always loved Day of the Dead inspired art and jewelry. Just thought instead of doing yet another belated "Art That's Inspiring Me" I'd try something different.
I'm sorry that the previous work that I've promised to post hasn't been posted yet. I'm testing out different export settings to see how to get the best quality I can with an upload time that is reasonable. I attempted to upload a video today, and after an hour and a half it was only at 11%. Hope everyone in Atlanta is enjoying the colder weather! I know I am! It's so great to wear a sweatshirt again! Take care, everyone! -Kay

TAG: Going Off to College
My friend Ebby of EvelynBlogs had a great post for people going off to college this fall. I'm just going to expand on her already extensive list of things that may be helpful for new college students. Here's a link to the original post so you can check it out!
http://evelynborchert.blogspot.com/2011/08/going-off-to-college.html
MY SUGGESTED SHOPPING LIST FOR NEW COLLEGE STUDENTS...
#1 SUNSCREEN because nothing is grosser than peeling all over your lab partner...
#2 BABY WIPES your fellow students will appreciate the fact that you don't smell like a locker room. TRUST ME!!!
I always had a plastic bag with a few of these in my purse to freshen up when I was feeling sweaty after walking to class or just needed a quick way to feel cleaner. These are a great thing to have in your bag, especially during midterms and finals when you might not get to shower as often as you'd like. When you've been up all night studying and have to run to class, they are the quickest way to make you feel less like a smelly animal and more like a human being again.
#3 ALL PURPOSE MOISTURIZER in your bag or your bathroom, these are great for cuticles, hands, knees, and elbows. In a pinch I've also used them on my lips and face, though they can break you out, so I don't recommend doing that everyday. These are also good for minor abrasions, burns, blisters, and callouses.
#4 SAFETY PINS a godsend for those of us who can't sew. Avoid a potential wardrobe malfunction and keep a few of these around...
#5 RESCUE REMEDY, VALERIAN ROOT For when you're freaking out about the amount of work you have to do, stressing over classes, or trying not to murder your roommate. Valerian root to help you get your healthy sleep without being groggy the next day, and the rescue remedy to help you mellow out and not lose your shit.
