About

Hi, I’m Adam Yates, a UNC Greensboro graduate with a BA in Media Studies and a background in acting education, leadership, and film production. I’ve spent four years as an Acting Instructor at Acting Out Studios in Charlotte and three years as a Camp Counselor at Camp Eagle Rock YMCA in Charlotte, where I led groups, coordinated schedules, and fostered engaging and safe learning environments. I also have hands-on experience as a Film Production Assistant, shooting freelance corporate projects and supporting on-set production.

I bring practical skills in editing, lighting, and camera operation, along with scriptwriting and a collaborative, friendly approach to teaching and teamwork. I’m passionate about guiding performers, coordinating creative programs, and bringing stories to life on stage or screen, with a focus on clear communication and strong leadership.
