Video storytelling is an important part of my journalistic experience. I’m passionate about composing shots, creating nice story arcs and playing around with editing and effects. I have done wedding videography, event packages, and briefly dabbled in 360/VR video production. My current focus is on short editorial videos and social videos, but I’m trying to make more aesthetic and creative pieces to challenge my skills and vision in the long run.
