Description

I'm recently new to Utah. I have about 15 years of experience working on film & video production sets. I started my film career adventure in 2008 by enrolling into film school, I learned how to shoot, light and edit video using Final Cut Pro and Adobe Premiere Pro. How I started out working in the industry was by working as a production assistant when I was in my first year in college. I went from being a production assistant then getting some experience in the grip & electric to the camera department being a camera assistant, to camera operator, and DIT on a handful of projects over time. While I was in collage earning my degree I worked Hollywood features and Indi-feature film sets to high-level car commercial production shoots. I finished film school in 2013, I truly wanted to be a cinematographer because I enjoy the process of working with the light and the camera. I got my first job working for Microsoft Studios at Channel 9 studios as there main videographer and video editor in 2014. I filmed a lot of events, internal case study videos and weekly tech video tutorial shoots. Working for Microsoft gave me a lot of travel experience domestically and internationally to seven different countries. It boosted my confidence to work with high-level executives and all different types of people. After working six years years at Microsoft I started to work as a independent contractor and started my business working and providing services to local video production companies. Today I get hired a lot of camera department jobs as a camera operator or director of photography on corporate and commercial video shoots. I take on grip and electric jobs as well.
