Turnabout being fair play, it was my turn to be subject instead of photographer. Not just helping out a classmate, but genuinely getting inside the head of the cast for when I'm behind the lens.

Live Technical Production Work
JMU Breeze TV
As a Production Assistant for JMU’s Breeze TV, I learn how to work in a news room environment, be that in the studio with the talent, or the control room with the Technical Director. Production Assistants rotate to a new job every week so we are able to learn all of the jobs and be as effective and efficient in those positions as possible. One week I will be Camera 2 operator, while the next week I will taking direction from the Technical Director on shading, or assisting with the audio board. These rotations give me the opportunity to learn every job in the studio, giving me the motivation and knowledge to become fluent in the process of putting on a live news production.
Grace Church
Being a member of the Film Team for the Orlando campus of Grace Church gave me a chance to improve my video skills in Florida while I was taking time off from my film classes at JMU. I was able to contribute to my team's high-production-value worship broadcasts as I tracked the pastor as he walked, or unexpectedly sprinted across the stage. The multi-campus Grace Church is a community that is still growing, and so is the Film Team.

What a wonderfully volatile chain reaction - Acting lit the fuse to Scenic Painting, which exploded with my fascination with film; film that uses technical magic to fuse story, scenery and acting into a critical mass that leaves amazed audiences saying, "WOW"!
Assisting behind the camera on several shorts as Boom Operator and Production Assistant (read: gopher), and my first semester in JMU's School of Media Arts & Design (SMAD), led to my filming a PSA, and most recently an interview with JMU choreographer Kristen Bolger.
I'm starting to learn my way around the basics of composition, lighting, sound, camera and editing. I hope that these very early efforts will demonstrate my creative and technical aptitude, hint at my determination, and make clear to those who may have a place for an intern that I can deliver value while learning more about this fascinating craft.
