    paper Jesuit Dallas vs. Irving Nimitz High School Football Game – tr3dio Productions

    A live high school football broadcast between Jesuit Dallas and Irving Nimitz at Ellis Stadium on November 7th, 2025.

    Serving as a camera operator for the event, I collaborated closely with the production team to maintain smooth visual coverage of key plays, sideline activity, and crowd engagement while responding quickly to real-time cues. In addition to standard gameplay coverage, I was responsible for capturing tight close-up footage of players for slow-motion replays, ensuring each moment was recorded with precision and clarity.

    In addition, my job required assisting with disassembling the production setup and supporting the team during cleanup and load-out, helping ensure an efficient and organized wrap at the end of the event.

    This project reinforced my strengths in field production, technical camera operation, communication under pressure, and adaptability in a live sports environment.
