Just A Small Town Girl

Posted on May 23, 2009

“…living in a lonely world.”
Ok – I’m not that lonely.

I still think of my hometown as a small one. I grew-up in Diamond Bar. It’s in East LA County, between the 57 and 60 Freeways. It’s a fine place to raise a family, with slight conservative leanings. I also dreamed about life beyond the suburbs. Eventually, I made that dream come true – living and working in Berkeley, Chicago, London and Washington, D.C.

Now, I’m trying to make a new dream a reality – living and working in wine country.

Dreaming of Wine Country

That’s one of the reasons why I applied for A Really Goode Job. I also enjoy playing with my multimedia tools and drinking wine. As the Murphy-Goode Wine Country Lifestyle Correspondent, I get to do both and more.

Want to see what happens when I combine editing, wine and allergy season?
Check out my blooper reel! These are just some of the clips that ended up on my digital editing floor.

Some Goode Bloopers from Kris Vera-Phillips on Vimeo.

Here’s what I used to make this video and my video application:

  • Macbook’s iSight camera and microphone
  • iMovie HD
  • iPhoto
  • MPEG Streamclip

By the way, I turn 31 tomorrow. You know what would be an awesome present? A vote from you for me! If you have 20 seconds, please vote on my video application. It’s a two-step process. Murphy-Goode will send you an e-mail to confirm you’re a human being and they won’t spam you. Just click on the link and you’re golden.

    HA!

    What a great song, I love it! Fits perfectly.

    Listen, do you know how to upload to multiple Video share sites simultaneously and increase your viewage? I mean, it is possible that there are people who have never heard of MURPHY-GOODE and AREALLYGOODEJOB but stumble upon your video…

    I wrote a post about it… *smile* for all those great MG Hopefuls out there: 100% Ambition and you are “in”–> it is about working smarter, not just harder!

    Hats off to you Kris, looking forward to MORE awesome stuff from you!

    Queenkv,

    I really enjoyed your video! Is it strange to say that you remind me of one of my good friends? Your site is also designed beautifully…

    Keep in touch!

    Cheers ~ Alina
