CINEMATOGRAPHY DEMO REEL

SAVING ORPHANS DOCUMENTARY

This heart felt documentary was produced, shot, and directed by JR Campbell as a gift to Saving Orphans World Wide to help them raise more money and awareness so that they can save and protect more children around the world. This was a passion project with a shoe string budget funded by the members of New Life Canton Church. 

PERSONAL MUSIC VIDEO

This music video was a labor of love. JR filmed this video for our friends over at Bolt Entertainment. We had a micro budget but that didn't stop us from delivering a solid video because we always do our best to come through no matter the budget. It just means we had to get really creative with what we had. 

GEICO "15 SECONDS" SPOT

This was one of about a dozen commercials JR filmed for Geico. When the director Don Cherel approached JR and said "Do what you want. Think music video" JR was excited.This was one of two commercials we had to film in two days not including a pre light day. It's always a challenge to film on ice for obvious reasons but we had a lot of fun doing it. And the best part is this spot won a bronze Telly award for best commercial lighting that year. Sweet!
