I am a highly motivated Executive Producer and Video Editor with a proven track record in end-to-end podcast production and digital content strategy. As the Executive Producer of the Law & Democracy podcast (The Ohio State University, Election Law program), I holistically manage the production lifecycle of a high-profile series, encompassing: • Pre-Production: Guest scouting and talent coordination to secure notable contributors. • Post-Production & Technical Proficiency: Non-linear editing (NLE) primarily using Adobe Premiere Pro to deliver polished, broadcast-quality content. My workflow involves rigorous audio/video cleanup, multicam sync (for virtual interviews), color correction, and the implementation of dynamic graphic packages, including opening/closing titles and subtitles for accessibility. • Multi-Platform Delivery: Proficient in creating optimized episode packages for distinct platforms, including audio-first feeds (Apple Podcasts) and video-centric distribution (YouTube), ensuring adherence to unique technical specifications and platform best practices. Strategic Visual Storytelling & Engagement I excel at the core deliverables of this role, focusing on enhanced visual storytelling and audience growth: • High-Impact Intros & Thumbnails: I design compelling, click-through-rate (CTR) optimized thumbnails and develop engaging video intros/outros that establish a consistent, premium brand identity for the series. • Short-Form Content Strategy: I derive and repurpose long-form episodes into dynamic short-form reels and teasers optimized for platforms like BlueSky and X, maximizing audience engagement and facilitating discoverability. • Marketing & Branding: I manage the associated digital presence, including a bi-weekly Mailchimp newsletter and social media channels, driving audience milestones and supporting the brand's growth mission. My supplementary experience includes editing specialized content, such as historical trivia shorts and interview-style marketing videos (e.g., Believe Mortgage), where I apply skills in b-roll integration, sound design, lighting correction, and pacing to enhance narrative impact. Technical Expertise: Adobe Premiere Pro, Canva (for quick edits/graphics), Mailchimp, YouTube Studio best practices. I am dedicated to delivering polished, broadcast-quality video content on schedule.
