During my time at Jacksonville State University, I took various video recording/editing courses. Here you will find a few of those works I produced in those courses, whether it was short or long form of content.
Role: Director, Editor, Videographer

Gear: Canon EOS 90D, Zoom H6
Software: Adobe Premiere Pro, Adobe Audition
The Brief: During a Multimedia Design course I took, we were instructed to have a theme for our final project and create blogs, podcast episodes, and videos (2 of each) revolving around that specific theme. I chose to discuss the reality of Banned Books. I wanted my first video to be a vlog, as many Gen Z and Millennial individuals seem to enjoy this type of video. I recorded in the Jacksonville Public Library, searching for children’s books that were currently being removed or challenged from schools and other public libraries in Alabama.

Mad Hatter Cupcakes was the perfect spot, for it is a very popular spot for students, locals, and visitors to enjoy a sweet treat. They were hosting a party for their weekly “Saturday Menu” theme, revolving around the release of Harry Styles’ 4th studio album.

I worked with Mr. Tim Lockette, a professor at Jacksonville State University, and an author of 3 novels. I asked him about his opinion over the banning book culture dilemma we currently face not only in Alabama, but around the nation.
