Carnegie Mellon's Entertainment Technology Center (ETC) holds a festival every fall to showcase student projects. Due to Covid regulations, the festival had to move to an online format for the 2021 festival.

For one of my projects, my team decided to film a small documentary about our game 'Across the Stars' for the livestream.

'The Pyres' is an Oculus Quest horror game that I helped create as a sound designer. On top of my sound design, the game also includes two videos created by me that are played on a TV within the world.

This video was the only solo assignment for my Visual Story class. As the name suggests, the purpose of this assignment was to introduce yourself in a video format. I chose to cover "Paradise" by George Ezra in my video and then transition into an introduction to myself through dialogue and visuals.

The Cornhusker Marching Band had no live field performances during the fall 2020 season due to Covid protocols. However, the band persevered and created several virtual performances. For this collection of performances, I coordinated all the editors and directed/edited several videos.

Pitch Please is the University of Nebraska-Lincoln's premier co-ed a cappella. They are also some of my closest friends as I performed alongside them from 2016 - 2020 as their primary vocal percussionist.

This virtual performance was created in the summer of 2020. On top of my beatboxing duties, I organized individual video recordings and compiled them into this dynamic video.
