Videography
I am new to video editing…
but I am having a blast! I am working with a GoPro Hero 8, an iphone 7, a gimbal, Adobe Premiere pro, and the desire to tell a story. Sure, it’s been a bumpy ride. But I am really enjoying new tools, and new ways to tell a story!!
When the pandemic hit, my Jiu Jitsu gym, East Side Grappling, was challenged to find a new way to teach classes. The owner, Coach Josh, asked me to help him create a bank of videos for the students, so they could follow along at home. So far we have created over 200 videos. I film, edit, upload to youtube, and maintain our private channel.

With my first video already under my belt, ( Gambler 500 below) it was time to step up my editing game. For this video I used Adobe Premiere Pro for the first time. I created both a full length movie for family, as well as this 6 Minute short to share online. In addition to these, I made a little one minute trailer for Instagram. You can see it HERE . I am really happy with how this video turned out. (the music is so much better now!!) I learned ALOT while creating it and look forward to my next one!

I received a Gimbal for my iPhone for my birthday, and this was my first time using it. I really loved the smooth panning & tracking. This was my first time capturing video with intent to make a mini movie. It was fun making choices when to capture video, finding filler, thinking about what instances were needed to tell the story and choosing when to take photos. Normally I’m all about my DSLR. I used Adobe spark for easy editing. Improvement could be made with the song, and I decided next time I would use Adobe Premiere and up my editing and background song game.
