Biff Had Kids? Who Is Griff's Dad? A Back to the Future video essay.

01

Problem

Turn a question about the missing generation between Biff and Griff Tannen into a video that gives viewers a reason to click and keeps the story moving.

02

Approach

I developed the script, recorded the talking head against a green screen, and combined commentary, film clips, motion graphics, and visual jokes. I also created the thumbnail and published the finished piece on YouTube and my website.

03

Result

10,000+ views on YouTube as of November 9, 2026. The finished 3:53 video is also a portfolio example of my scripting, presenting, editing, and compositing work.

Capabilities

What this project included

Concept & Script

Built a video essay around a specific movie question, organizing the commentary and supporting clips into a story with a clear hook.

On-Camera Production

Recorded the talking head against a green screen so the presentation could sit alongside film clips, graphics, and visual jokes.

Editing & Motion Graphics

Combined the presentation, film clips, compositing, and animated elements, with attention to pacing, timing, and how each visual supports the story.

Thumbnail & Publishing

Created the thumbnail, published the video on YouTube, and connected it to a website watch page, blog post, and video portfolio.
