Videography / Director of Photography
I set up lighting, audio, and multiple cameras for interviews, live shots, and corporate videos. I can bring additional videographers, sound techs, makeup artists, and crews as needed. Production is my passion and I can shoot and coordinate.
Drone
I was first licensed by the FAA in 2016 and have maintained my Part 107 certification ever since. I helped form the pathway for legal UAV flights in Chicago with the OEMC and Parks Department and for years was the only person the city specifically allowed to fly. I also helped start CNN's aviation unit in 2016 when the industry was in its infancy. I am fully licensed and insured.
Field Producing
My deep editorial and production background is a unique combination that allows me to oversee multiple aspects of production when clients are in a resource pinch. At CNN I was regularly called upon to field produce for network correspondents as the only US Photojournalist authorized to do so.
Editing
I can edit. In the field on tight deadline, or in the office working on a planned corporate project. Custom outputted and raw files can be delivered however you need (FTP, Dropbox, LiveU, etc).
