About Shayne

Bio

For two decades I've been working in the areas of video production, training, and education in different ways. In that time, I've become a professional Adobe Premiere editor and videographer. I'm also fairly skilled with Lectora and competent with most of the various software used to create web-based training (WBT) as well as Resolve and Final Cut Pro. I was previously an academic in Political Science and still know enough about government and politics to help with many questions.

For two decades I've been working in the areas of video production, training, and education in different ways. In that time, I've become a professional Adobe Premiere editor and videographer. I'm also fairly skilled with Lectora and competent with most of the various software used to create web-based training (WBT) as well as Resolve and Final Cut Pro. I was previously an academic in Political Science and still know enough about government and politics to help with many questions.

I have shot and edited (with Premiere) marketing, training, and event video for many clients over the last 10 years including Johns Hopkins University, T. Rowe Price, Ciena, and University of Maryland. I have long experience doing my own sound and lights and can explain both. I've also taught week-long Adobe Premiere and Final Cut Pro 7 classes several times. I have formal training in video production from Howard Community College and the NPPA TV News Storytelling Workshop.

I have a Bachelors in Political Science and Doctorate degree in Government and Politics. I taught college courses in American Government at Stevenson University and was teaching assistant on other courses including International Politics multiple times at University of Maryland. I studied international relations and technology's relationship to politics as a grad student.

I love helping people understand things better so they can do things better. I look forward to helping you.

Shayne is very helpful and knowledgeble

Shayne was very competent in helping me with the motion tracking tool in After Effects. He also was helpful with trouble shooting and dealing composites. He directed me to better organizational skills and navigating my way around After Effects overall.

Carlos, 2 lessons with Shayne

Excellent!

Best tutor ever! Very knowledgeable, patient, and accessible. Always well prepared and ready to help. No question too trivial. Deep knowledge of Premiere Pro and all things computer related.

Evan, 10 lessons with Shayne

Outstanding tutor for adult newbie for Adobe Premiew Pro

Shayne helped me learn Adobe Premier Pro and I created my first instructional video for my high school students. It is custom, with all of the images of my content and myself seen in the frame as I saw some professionals do. I am so very grateful and will do more for my students. Shayne is a true trainer for adults who are dropped in the middle of technological challenges to be all things through virtual instruction for our students.

Debbie, 2 lessons with Shayne

Knowledgeable and Professional

My son was happy with the public speaking session. He said it helped him with the technique, preparation and delivery of the speech. Also, the Instructor was very prompt to respond to my questions prior to the session.
