A short report on electoral reform I produced, filmed, and edited with the help of Maya Menezes A short video I made with ShitHarperDid and Wage Solidarity to help raise funds for an indigenous farmer who grows food to feed resistance camps. My involvement included filming, syncing, and editing multiple camera angles and audio tracks, finding archival footage and conducting interviews. A video I put together from an event called Unite Against Austerity where I got to learn a great deal about the different effects austerity has on different sections of the population, and how it is unwillingly forced upon us by the banking system.

I did the entire project from start to finish, I had one extra shooter but aside from that from conceptualization to media release the whole production was driven by me.

- News Shooter / Video Journalist
A video report I produced for Ricochet Media about the impacts and community response to the Vancouver fuel spill The piece involved research, contacting interview subjects, event coverage, on air reporting, sound recording, and photo, video, and print journalism. The piece was filmed over two days and posted the next day. This piece was something I pitched, not an assignment.
