At new media company, Funhaus…
the team faced incredible growth and popularity due to their comedy videos and video gameplay. Because of this, the team sought to put out constant weekly content, which included professional editing and photoshopped imagery.
As an editing intern, I manipulated and created multiple comedy graphics a week and helped to edit short video snippets. Based on directions from the main team editors and clips from our weekly videos, I was tasked with assembling graphics and edited photos from scratch, as well as creating comedy editing sequences.
In this role, I gained invaluable experience working in Adobe Creative Suite, especially in Photoshop and Premiere. The graphics and manipulated photos I created were used in various videos, which garnered upwards of 500,000 views per video.
Fullscreen is a new media company that gives tools to social media content creators and brands…
Fullscreen was looking to expand their content in a new direction, by creating original content for their streaming platform, both scripted and unscripted. They had a particular audience in mind, young adults, and wanted to be able to aptly target that demographic through their programming.
As a member of the Fullscreen Think Tank, myself and my team were tasked with coming up with new ideas for content to pitch to managers, watching and critique current shows, and diving into the minds of the ideal Fullscreen audience to find what they would most want to watch. We helped create one-sheets, looked at branding decks from Fullscreen for their different shows, and collaborated on ideas to pitch to the larger original programs team.
My time as a member of the Think Tank helped me develop the ability to work well in creative collaboration with new people. I was able to develop ideas for original programs based off of set parameters given to me by the original programs department. I created one-sheets, worked with building presentation decks, and helped research targeted demographics of audience members to help develop ideas to best appeal to those demographics.
