Dean Rocha

Creating a variety of projects from TV ads to corporate image pieces. Producing content for Mystic View and Newport View two tourism information channels within the Mystic, CT and Newport, RI areas. The shows provide general information on the areas with ads and features on restaurants, shopping and historic attractions.

Colony produces story-based videos, branded content, corporate videos, event hype reels, brand activation videos, and commercials. My responsibilities are achieving the desired look and feel of each piece through creative cinematography and editing.

Specializing in luxury and destination weddings I worked as second shooter and eventually up to lead shooter. The footage would be edited into a highlight containing the best moments from the day and a longer form video as well. Other projects included branded content for five star hotels and vineyards.
