DESCRIPTION: This was a project completed in Creative Triangle where I was both the writer and director out of the three roles. This production had a lot of hardships. We had to reschedule multiple times because of Hurricane Ian, our Production Designer was sick and not on set, and our Director of Photography was sick while ON set. Directing while making up for a bunch of other roles was extremely difficult, but we managed to push through and finish the short.

SEMESTER / TERM: 2021 Fall Semester
INSTITUTION: The University of Tampa
DESCRIPTION: This film was the first narrative film that I directed and shot ever. Going from the pre-production experience all the way to the end of post-production was such an eye-opening journey to the ins and outs of filmmaking. I was lucky to have an incredibly supportive professor and students to guide me along the way of this production. Do I cringe every time I look at this and wish I could change a lot of things? Yes. However, I don’t think I’d know everything I do now without the trials and tribulations of this piece.

DESCRIPTION: This was a group project that we had to complete in Narrative Production. My group and I had to attempt to get 10 different shots in an hour, and it was one of the most stressful things I’ve done. Creating the storyline, shots, and location was something that we had to think of on the fly and we managed to finish it!
