At Cheshire High School I was introduced to the world of creating and editing video. In Fall 2019 I learned the basics of videography and Adobe Premiere Pro in Digital Video Productions 1 with Mr. Keith Moyer. In Spring 2020, during the Covid-19 quarantine, I took Digital Photography with Mr. Dan Warburton who taught me the how darkrooms work, the basics of a digital camera and Adobe Photoshop. In Fall 2020 I expanded my learning of Video Production and Editing in Digital Video Productions 2 with Mr. Keith Moyer. This course was asynchronous, I would film at home, learn the software program in class to then finish the project at home.
In applying to Quinnipiac University I was a Film, Television and Media Arts Major. During Fall 2021 I attended two video production courses. In single camera production with Professor Michael Schleif, I worked with a UX-90 camera and learned different audio and lighting techniques. In multi-camera production with Professor Peter Sumby I learned principles of tv and film studio productions in the all-digital 4K television studio. I have gained knowledge on the tools of Adobe Premiere Pro through both courses. In Spring 2022 I officially changed my major and declared my minor in Film & Television Production/Writing. In Spring 2023 I attend Intermediate Productions with Professor John O’Brien I learned the Sony A7 II camera, Final Draft 12 and Movie Magic. In addition to these two screenwriting programs we utilized Adobe Premiere Pro on all projects in the course.

In the Ed McMahon Center each student learns the operations of the 4K video cameras, video switcher, Chyron CG, and Midas audio mixer. Throughout the course each of us are assigned the crew position at least once in order to become comfortable and knowledgeable with the equipment.
