Production Coordinator
ICTV Sports Director:
As the ICTV Executive Staff's Sports Director, I oversaw the eight shows in the sports department - Sports Final, Big Red Faceoff, Hold That Thought, Next Player Up, Bombers Live and Bombers Live Esports, So You Think You Know Sports, The Gridiron Report, and The Inside Scoop. I worked with the producers on each show to manage the creation of the best content possible every week. My goals as the Sports Director were to be present at a majority of show recordings, to ensure good communication and good relationships between shows and to create strong content for ICTV.
The Fall 2020 semester changed how I was going to accomplish my goals because Ithaca College went fully remote, which meant that ICTV was creating content from many homes. I was not able to walk into the studios or the classrooms to speak with producers, and cast and crew members about their show like I had originally planned. I ensured that my communication with the shows was strong, as that was the only way I could oversee the productions and assist in any possible manner. I am proud to say that the sports department of ICTV created high quality content during the remote semester, and I was able to contribute to make that happen. Being adaptable is such an important skill in the television industry, now more than ever, and I was able to adapt to the new circumstances as the Sports Director.

ICTV Workshop:
In January 2021, I taught a workshop about tips and tricks to editing sports highlights to members of ICTV. Here is the video that I recorded to go along with the workshop.
Summer 2020 Collaboration:
Over the summer of 2020, I collaborated with the sports department of WICB, one of Ithaca College's radio stations, in their summer interview series. The radio personalities interviewed guests via Zoom for their radio show and passed along the footage for me to edit the full interview and short teasers for Instagram, Twitter, and Facebook posts on ICTV's platforms. It was a great opportunity to cross-promote as the teasers I edited promoted the radio show and the radio show promoted the full interview that was posted on ICTV's Facebook page.
