FILM
Cinematography and filmmaking as a whole have always been of great interest to me. Since picking up my first DSLR in 2015 when I started at the CTC I quickly developed an interest in photography and camera technology.
Film is an incredibly important part of American and world culture and art. Nothing has the power to truly immerse a viewer and facilitate ideas and information the way a great movie can. I value creativity, story, and visual style. I wish to create something myself and others can value, something people can feel. Film production requires an immense collaborative effort between writers, talent, and crew--I seek quality that everyone involved can be proud of.
I also enjoy and respect the technical side of filmmaking--I always jump at the chance to learn more about different camera systems, lenses, editing software, etc. Analog filmmaking such as Double 8, Super 8, and 16mm are of special interest to me.
I've recently been making the switch of NLEs from Premiere Pro to DaVinci Resolve.
