Student Productions
I have worked on many student productions, primarily as director of photography and camera operator. However, I also
have done plenty of grip work and production design.
Skills
I have taken many courses in a school with a film production program. Such courses as: Video Production,
Cinematography, Editing as well as Audio. During the course of one of my classes I was assigned as camera
operator. Our camera of choice was the Red One which we rented from a company in Los Angles.
As a production assistant for Tucson 12 I have worked as a camera operator in the studio, and on the field. The
standard definition camera used is a Panasonic DVCPRO50.
I am familiar with many editing suites such as FCP and Adobe Premier Pro.
During many student productions I worked as a grip, setting up and breaking down lighting equipment.
