The motion picture - there’s more to it than meets the eye. The production process, unrecognized by the average viewer, is what captivates me. I am intrigued by how multiple art forms - music, photography, theater, and fashion - must coalesce in order for the intended message to translate. There is the potential to elicit the full range of human emotions. There is the chance to spark reflection about what it means to be human.
As a media studies major at Loras College, I was able to immerse myself in all stages of the production process - brainstorming, shooting, logging, editing, and exporting. My field experience is complimented by coursework that has exposed me to what stretches beyond the movie theater, including the cultural and economic impact of the media industry. I also have had the opportunity to act, host, and write.
Take a look at the work I have done as a part Loras College Television (LCTV), Loras College Productions (LCP), SolidLine Media (SLM), WTVO/WQRF News, and as part of my coursework. You can also take a look at my resume here.
