In the 2024 - 2025 season, working as a creative director, I oversaw all our video content. With team videographer Kaira Edwards, we created a weekly cadence of original content including Mic’d Up, Cinematic Recaps, Get Ready With Me, Bruin Cam, and Sport Swaps.
In addition to creative directing our content slate, I also documented the season as a cinematographer and photographer as part of a long term project.
Selected here are a few favorite pieces of content from the season(s).
