"Hindsight, is the perfect understanding of an event only after it has happened." "Hindsight" is a new short film of mine that I just recently completed in December. It takes the theory of 20/20 Hindsight literally, in that the main character, Katie, has been given a second chance at life...or so it seems. The film was directed by myself and Jazmin Garcia (who is seen in the intro as the girl in the trunk). I'd appreciate any feedback from my fans. Thank you. - JP

"Stage Fright" is a short film assignment my group was given to do last Tuesday (Oct. 3) in class, and only had an hour and a half to shoot it! We had to come up with a short one-minute long story, that depicts the emotion of "fright". The other group in class, however, had to make one on "anger". Here is our finished product that I edited. Enjoy! JP

Even though this video is already up on YouTube, I'd like to clarify a few misconceptions. I'm the sole creator/editor of the video. In the original version seen on this site, for the ending credits it reads: Video by HPWizardry.com. That was my fan site for some time until I shut it down in July 2004. There are those who upload this video under their username; but nowhere do they explain that they are not the creator. They claim it as their own work. It's for this reason alone, why I've decided to not release my "Hermione Unfaithful" video as a Windows Media download online. This video is part of an on-going series I'm putting together called "The Battles of HP". Be sure to check out the sequel in my list of uploads. Thanks! - JP

I made this video back in April/May 2005, and at the time the ONLY available footage released by WB from "Goblet of Fire" was of the teaser trailer. Unlike most of my other HP vids, this video has a slow ending, with more lines overheard in a voiceover. It deals with Harry being "The Chosen One". Song name: "Chosen" (heard in the final episode of "Buffy the Vampire Slayer") Composer: Robert Duncan

Hermione is unfaithful to Harry and cheats on him with Ron. This kind of video has been done (possibly overdone) before on YouTube, but you may find this video to have a more "dramatic" feel to it, if not sometimes humorous. You'll see what I mean ;) Synopsis: Harry and Ron are both clueless as to Hermione's cheating ways. In the video, she's playing both of them in the beginning. Then when Harry discovers Hr/R in the Leaky Cauldron together, he gets suspicious and confronts Ron in the courtyard. The final dialogue piece, is about Harry & Ron arguing about the time that Ron found out Harry & Hermione were 'together', near Hagrid's Hut and Hermione yells "RON!", because he ran off heart broken. It's all about Harry & Ron fighting over Hermione. UPDATE!: For those of you who wanted to download this video in high-quality WMV format (or even iPod & PSP), go to - http://www.dramatic-pictures.com/downloads/films/hp/unfaithful.html Flash 8 is required to view the hi-res Flash version via my website (which is still under construction). Thanks for all your wonderful comments!
