As the Assistant Director of Photography at the Columbia Missourian, I presented visual stories in the best way possible in print, online and on social media. In addition to editing, toning and long-forming daily assignments, I attended newsroom planning and budget meetings so that the collaboration between reporters and photographers ran smoothly.
After working with photographers to make an edit, I often collaborate with the newsroom's design team to put together a print page. In this role, I decide the front page photo and which photos should be highlighted on the inside page. I love seeing our photographer's work in the paper the next morning.
I edited the trailer for a multimedia project on river towns in Mid-Missouri. The videos were produced by the Columbia Missourian's visual team and edited by Nevin Dubinski and Caroline McCone.
I assisted in the production and edit of this mini-documentary about a dance venue in a neighboring town. I assembled a team of videographers and photographers to help on the project, and I coordinated with the owners of the venue and other participants in the project. I shared my vision with the team and it was fun seeing what they came back with.
I edited this video during my internship at Revolve Media in Brussels, Belgium. Revolve is the media agency for an EU-funded project called HOOP, which is committed to local waste management initiatives.
The video is one part of a package I created on the waste management Study Tour, which also included photos and a written story.
I edited this video for Revolve's HEART project, an EU-funded project on building's energy efficiency.
At the photo desk, I've learned how to best present our photographer's work on social media. I usually have to make a tighter edit, select a cover photo and create a caption in regards to the story and photos.
