We’ve all been called to a life of service. The skills that I have been given allow
me to use visual media in a way that satisfies the needs of others. My
professional goals include harnessing ideas and encapsulating them into visual
masterpieces.
All the works of man have their origin in creative fantasy. What right have we then to depreciate imagination.
-Carl Jung
A kid sits in the grass and presses record. His friend comes barreling down the
street on rollerblades with an exaggerated sense of confidence. As all eight
wheels contact a homemade ramp, time shifts. His body soars through the air
in slow motion, completing one full rotation. The camera burns every frame
onto the cassette. He lands flawlessly. Excited, the kid holding the camera
stops recording and screams, “I caught that on film!” That kid was me. I’ve
always had a desire to capture time. That is why I plan to use my production
skills to assist people who believe that their moment has value.
Creation is my passion. Whether it is editing, filming, directing,
brainstorming or coordinating, video production is a part of me. I put the
client’s needs first and use my creativity to design the product.

Dear Ms. Mayer:
Hello, I’d like to nominate Kenton Filipowicz for the business field JoAnne Day
Students of the Year Awards. Kenton has been an outstanding intern throughout
his entire internship here at Concept Commandos, LLC. Concept Commandos, LLC.
is a full-service graphic design firm offering various mutlimedia design services.
Kenton’s responsibilities ranged from filming footage for an online 3D -tour to
producing a full-length commercial including storyboarding, special fx, filming,
and editing. Other responsibilities included attending company meetings, face-
to-face client interaction, volunteering at the Mifflin County Communities that
Care Non-Profit group, online conferencing, as well as filming and editing video
intro footage for various websites.
The first project Kenton worked on was an online 3D-tour and video intro for
Robbins Paradise Ranch & Chalet. Kenton attended several meetings with
our client to learn the details of the project he would be working on. On the
production day for the 3D-tour, Kenton impressed us with his resourcefulness
by bringing his own equipement. Among his equipment was a camera dolly and
tracks he made himself. For the website’s intro-video Kenton filmed and edited
various wildlife footage on the client’s which the client highlights on her website.
One of the biggest projects Kenton worked on was filimg and editing footage
for the Millennium Dance Company located in New York, NY. The project was
coordinated with our team and the dance company to set up a date to travel to
P.O. Box 10281State College, PA 16805
conceptcommandos.com
Manhattan and film video interviews of the company’s owner, instructors, and
students, as well as class footage and dance footage for their website. This was
a two day long trip in which Kenton showed utmost professionalism throughout
the entire production.
Another one of Kenton’s responsibilities was to attend monthly meetings
at the Mifflin County Communities that Care Non-Profit Group in Lewistown,
PA. Concept Commandos, LLC. volunteers our design services to the MCCTC
which aims to the help local communities in the Mifflin County area. During his
internship, Kenton created a storyboard for a full-length TV commercial as well
as filmed and edited the commercial which was coordinated with members of
several local organizations such as:
• Mifflin County Communities that Care
• Concept Commandos, LLC.
• Granville Township Police Department
• Sacred Heart School
• Lewistown Area High School
The film production required all the members to be coordinated and filmed at
several different locations within a certain time frame for each scene in one day.
Kenton also had create special fx for the film such as smoke coming from under
the hood of a car for one of the scenes. The commercial will be aired at the
Miller Cinemas 6, Mifflin County Movie Night event, MCCTC YouTube Channel,
and television.
Throughout his entire internship this past Summer of 2011, Kenton proved
himself to be dedicated, hard working, dependable, and knowledgable in his
field. The Concept Commandos, LLC. Team as a whole was satisfied with Kenton’s
work, to the point that we have offered to keep him on our website team page as
a sub-contractor and look forward to working with him on future projects. I feel
that Kenton is an extremely worthy candidate for the business field JoAnne Day

Success Stories
Kickstarter.com is a way for people to collect
donations for a specific idea through
crowdsourcing. Ruffed Outdoors created
camouflage patterns from real Ruffed Grouse
feathers and needed a video to raise money for
their new concept. I gathered footage of the
patterns in their specified environments and
conducted on camera interviews of the owners
explaining their business model. The video raised
$20,000 and attracted multiple news outlets, giving
my client even more exposure.
Marketing and branding the KF Videography LLC
name is an ongoing process. I’ve created
KFvideography.com, promotional pieces, a
Facebook business page, custom T-shirts, vinyl
vehicle decal, flyers, brochures and much more to
broadcast my services. KF Videography uses
state-of-the-art editing software, brand new DSLR
cameras, green screen and other high quality
equipment to maintain a professional reputation.
KF Videography LLC has broadened my
knowledge of sales and conducting smart business
practices.
KF Videography clients know they are getting the
best quality and most of them continue to request
my services year after year. The University Of
West Alabama has hired me 3 years in a row. In
2014, I produced their final promotion to recruit
interns for an environmental science project. I
collaborated with Penn State, Notre Dame,
Clemson, The University of Tennessee,
The University of Missouri and Michigan Tech to
complete the video. By showing these videos to
prospective students, The University of West
Alabama was able to keep this internship program
funded.
