Industry Experience

Media & Entertainment
    paper Chronic

    A submission for the 2025 Easterseals Disability Film Challenge. This was a very small crew of me and one other person. Disability representation in the cast was essential and a highlight of this endeavor. This short film is intended to raise awareness for Ehlers Danlos Syndrome and Craniocervical Instability.

    paper Crawfish Boil 2025 on Super 8

    A good friend of mine is obsessed with his super 8 camera. After seeing the footage from a trip we took to Indiana, I couldn’t blame him. I was lucky enough to be able to cut the weekend together into a warm glimpse of our time. The footage was delivered to me digitally, post-color correction. Edited with Adobe Premiere Pro.

    paper Madi Fairman Acting Reel

    A collection of film projects I have been involved in as an actor. Utilizing what I was able to learn from casting directors in New York City, I pride myself on approaching acting/directing reels with a close eye. Capturing the attention of your audience from the first clip and remaining authentic in how the following clips represent you as an artist is key to a successful demo reel.

    paper Tapes

This is a short trailer for the film which I also completed the sound design on. Edited in Adobe Premiere Pro with music sourced from Artlist.io.
