May, Judge.

[1] Damon L. Maffett appeals his conviction of and sentence for Level 4 felony unlawful possession of a firearm by a serious violent felon. He presents two issues for review, which we restate as:

1) Whether the trial court abused its discretion when it admitted three minutes of a videotaped police interview of Maffett and police testimony about the presence of handgun ammunition in the apartment; and

2) Whether Maffett's ten-year sentence is inappropriate.

We affirm.
