DE LOS SANTOS PRODUCTIONS is named after my mother, Nilda de los Santos. The last name de los Santos means of the saints. I thought it would be a great name for my blog.
About Me: The Founder of De Los Santos Production
I started this blog after my basic production professor, Meg Knowels, told me that it would be a good idea to develop a blog, to use as a social media supplement to my resume. I agreed. I decided that a blog would be an ideal instrument for tracking, showcasing, and reflecting upon my growth in media production work. This is my media production journal. Here's my work thus far.THE MEANING OF DE LOS SANTOS
THE
BEGINNINGS OF CREATIVITY:
After I
declared media production my major at Buffalo State College, I found it
difficult to settle on a specialty in the field. EVERYTHING INTERESTED ME!
On this
blog, I post all my work in radio broadcasting, television production, film
documentary, and social media in the attempt to show the work I have done and
eventually discover my career focus.
By the way,
the female in the photograph is not me. I just liked the image of a strong media
woman.
Children's Defense Fund Campaign
For
my Post Production class I had to make a video using still images with a 30
second music piece. I decided to focus on the Children’s Defense Fund/Cradle to
Prison Pipeline Campaign. I worked with them as a junior intern in their Freedom Schools program. The Children’s
Defense Fund advocates for the education of all children in America. This is a cause dear to my heart, therefore,
I have written several commercials for this organization.
Black Orpheus: Title Sequence
For my Post
Production class we had to recreate a movie title sequence. I chose the movie, Black Orpheus, and used and recreated
one of my favorite scenes in the film. The music is great and the scene is
symbolic of a new beginning in the city of Rio de Janeiro. I used photographs that gradually lead to the
actual clip from the film. I hope you enjoy watching this video!
Recreating a Commerical: Class Project
I
re-created an ipod commercial and added little effects. I took clips from some
of my favorite dance scenes on film and included them in this video. I also
changed the background of the commercial from black to some funky color. I had
a fun time making this video. Enjoy it. I had a lot of fun putting in dance scenes from my favorite movies.

De los Santos Audio Work
I had so much fun writing and recording commercials. The microphone I used was not the best quality-- the sound levels went up and down. Learning to adapt to faulty equipment is part of the challenge. I have uploaded some of my work. So, here it is…
