Cinematography video (16:9)

Podcasting

What it is: I started the Chimes Weekly podcast as a collaboration between the student newspaper that I was in charge of and the radio station. I planned, shot, produced and edited episodes.
Who it’s for: This episode was about the negative student backlash at Capital University over campus usage of generative AI advertisements. Because we saw the intense emotions around this topic, we made it our inaugural episode of the podcast.
Tools & skills: Adobe Premiere Pro, three-camera setup, podcasting, editing, color grading and syncing high quality audio
My contribution: For our show on WXCU, Capital's student radio station, I edited this entire video. That included color grading RAW footage, syncing audio, and cutting the longform video into 4-5 minute segments for social media.

What it is: Autophobia was a short film I wrote and directed, creating and completing all required pre-production documents and working with students to be casted.

Photography

What it is: I was able to take pictures and particpate in media speaking when then-Gubernatorial candidate Amy Acton placed her vote in her home polling location at Capital University.
Who it’s for: These were pictures that I took for the Chimes. I was able to obtain a media contact through a connection at local NBC affiliate, WCMH.
Tools & skills: Framing, DSLRs
My contribution: I took pictures at the event for the Chimes, and as the event went on, I was astounded by the amount of children at the event. The last photo is my favorite, because the kids did not seem like they wanted to be there, and it possibly says something about the current state of political activism.
Credits: All photos by me.
