While podcasting and audio journalism have been my primary focus for over a decade, as that format evolves, it requires a growing need for companion video content. Through my work in podcasting, I’ve produced extensive video content to expand the reach of these shows and explore how we can share stories across different mediums and platforms. Podcasting wasn’t my first foray into writing and producing for video, though. As an editor and content strategist in digital media, I helped brands and networks develop their voice and personality, drive awareness, and grow their audience through video.

 

Video Production

My earliest introduction to creating video for digital media was running audio as an intern at The New Yorker for a shoot with the NYT Best-Selling Author, Gary Schteyngart. We were on location at a bar, and it was my job to monitor mic levels and make sure background noise didn’t begin to overwhelm the vocals for the video. I remember how exciting it was to be there, watching the producers direct the shoot, and seeing the final product they had worked on with their team of editors.

From there, I produced branded content videos for HuffPost with some of their brand partners, assisted on video shoots for Bravo’s Digital Video team, and eventually EP'd video production for the podcasts I ran and managed. This content ranges from full video episodes recorded in remote locations and large-scale live event recordings to on-location video trailers for new seasons and snackable shorts for social. Below are just a few examples of the work I’ve produced throughout my career in this medium.

Co-led production on a full video podcast “Raising Kids in the Age of AI” for aiEDU and their partners at Google.

On-Location video trailer for third season of “Mind the Business: Small Business Success Stories.” Everything was shot on-location in Tampa and Nashville utilizing different teams of DPs and cinematographers in each city. I oversaw all of production on-location during shoots and in the editing process.

 

Pitched and oversaw live event for brand partners and created an audience engagement strategy based on previous insights and metrics.

Social-first video content produced to align with full video content we shot for an episode of our webby-nominated podcast.

Produced a series of Videos for Huff Post about the first year of puppyhood in partnership with Purina Puppy Chow. This third video in the series showcases puppies experiencing the joys of summer. I was on location directing and working closely with cinematographers and their teams to capture the right angles and content and oversaw post production cuts and edits.

Produced and directed a series of videos for Huff Post about the first year of puppyhood in partnership with Purina Puppy Chow.
