Electronic, holographic & video art; Video photography; Film movie production: technical skills

Shelton tackles the fundamentals of motion media as communication devices. He focuses his narrative on communication principles that motivate audiences to achieve the show's goal. His inventive and personal approach merges history of the media, communication analysis, and filmic design with professional experiences from his award-winning career.

Told from the vantage point of a seasoned motion-media communicator,

Shelton forgoes discussions of technology, tools, and the like. Rather, he presents a cohesive strategy for the effective design and production of goal-achieving motion-media shows. Included are twenty-six illustrations from great documentary filmmakers. And, there are nine Appendices comprised of multimedia flow charts, a communication analysis form, several script formats, and a list of the all-time great documentary films.

His novella Khartoum and his novel Abyssinia both earned Finalist awards in the Writer's League of Texas annual publication competition in 2013. His novel St. Catherine's Crown is set during the Russian Revolution, and involves the regicide of the royal family, and the harrowing post-Revolution adventures of Grand Duchess Anastasia and her cousin Lieutenant Kirik Pirogov along the Trans-Siberian Railroad and in northwestern China.
