Video Essays, Editing & Motion Graphics
YouTube Video Production
A personal video project taking a Back to the Future question from script to finished video. The Biff video reached 10,000+ YouTube views as of November 9, 2026.
Biff Had Kids? Who Is Griff's Dad? A Back to the Future video essay.
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.
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.
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.

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.
