Backstory

Born in Oregon, childhood in South San Francisco and youth in Modesto, California. In Burbank since January 7, 1996. I started working with Super8 Film at the age of 14 - creating stop-motion claymation shorts. My friends and I made several narrative shorts using Super8 Kodachrome (not unlike the characters depicted in the film Super 8). I do acting from time to time and my first and best role was as a townswoman in Back to the Future 3. I worked as a roller-skating carhop at the A&W Drive-In and we made a commercial for them. I studied film production and film editing at Loyola Marymount University in 1994 and graduated from George Fox University in 1995. I interned at Warner Brothers. I trained as a Script Supervisor at the American Film Institute in 1996. I worked at Walt Disney Imagineering for 5 years. I did work for the City of Burbank Public Information Office as well as other Burbank entities (Library, Police Foundation, Veterans Events). I currently operate the Time Traveler's Bed & Breakfast in downtown Palmer, Alaska.

Philosophy in business: kindness, quality and affordability. That's why I shoot with several cameras all at once. Better coverage of once-in-a-lifetime moments. I've filmed some breathtaking weddings and parties! The Kodak Theater was unforgettable in 2008! Wonderland Tea Party was pure magic in 2015! Wedding cruises in Newport Beach in 2004 were so refreshing! Filming a Firefighter's memorial in 2016 was a honor. I love filming childbirth videos now. I do a lot of funeral videos, aprofound honor.

Did Carol Dorman (Wedding Videography by Carol or Fairytale Filmmaking by Carol) film your wedding, party, funeral or other event? Please connect with me on facebook. If your video was produced on VHS or DVD then give me a call. I'm happy to upload it so you can have the digital file. I save all of my edited work.
