Videography skills. I've learned a great deal about videography, and video editing from my involvement with the Walter Cronkite Sports Network, Inferno Intel, and the Walter Cronkite school. I've learned how to put packages and highlight reels together, edit videos, interview coaches and athletes with proper sound, and how to embed lower-third graphics. Here is my work with these clubs.

I previewed the PAC-12's biggest matchup of the season at the time. With a chance to reach first place in the "Conference of Champions," I produced a package highlighting which players to watch, and the reunion of then PAC-12 Player of the Week Des Cambridge Jr. and former AAU-teammate Tyger Campbell.
I produced a feature package on ASU Wrestling's 157-lbs. Jacori Teemer being featured in the first NIL-era collegiate sports video game.
ASU almost played cinderella in the Greatest Setting in College Football. They would fall 15-7 to UW.
8 turnovers. 3 QBs. A tough night for ASU as they fell 29-0 at home.
The Sun Devils headed up to Las Vegas to compete in a two-day tournament.

Like his father, Sam Duane Jr. is an upstanding citizen and legendary coach. A family legacy cemented among a father-son duo.
ASU is consistently one of the best offensive wrestling programs in the country. Following a rule change, where a takedown is worth three points rather than two, offense will be strong incentivized this next season. Here's how the Sun Devils can grow stronger because of the change.
ASU Wrestling: Seven-Year Wrestler Anthony Valencia
I told the story of senior 165-pound Anthony Valencia's seven-year career at ASU. With the help of some friends, I learned valuable skills like creating graphics, editing in Premiere Pro, and in interviews learning to give good response answers. I got to interview freshman 149-pound Kyle Parco and head coach Zeke Jones along with Valencia for this project.

Experimenting in making videos and filmmaking is a recent endeavor. I have created two Public Service Announcements (PSAs) for a local drug take back program that have been shared on their Facebook page. I've also practiced filming myself and editing a video to make a bid to speak in front of the U.S. House of Representatives Agriculture Committe this coming April. I've learned that filmmaking is 75% planning and 25% shooting or filming; not what I was expecting when I started. But, I like to see the results when my plan comes together. I have even created a curriculum to share with some young filmmakers in my local 4-H program to nurture interest in a topic I have enjoyed.
This is a short PSA that addresses one of the particular challenges, i.e., not dumping or throwing away old pills, that the Tri-County Health department wanted to highlight in their Facebook video post for their drug take back program.
I created two videos for the Tri-County Health department to highlight their drug take back program. My brother, cousin and grandfather were the actors. Let's just say there is a reason they were free.
The National 4-H program offers an opportunity for teen members to submit an application and video to make a bid for speaking in front of the U.S. House of Representatives Agriculture Committee. I was selected based on my video submission and will be speaking this coming April.
Below is the course outline for a 3-part filmmaking workshop series I created for my local 4-H program to help first and second year filmmaking participants learn the basics.
