The documentary was a ten minute long film about the quality and preservation of the Prettyboy Watershed. On the project I was required to edit footage via Avid Media Composer and produce a deliverable for both festival viewing as well as web.

The project entailed a quick turn one week turn around for about ten half hour long television episodes. I was required to edit the footage as well as do the green screen compositing for each episode.

I was responsible on set for slating each take as well as assisting with the RED camera. I also was part of the lighting department and was responsible for rigging stage lights that hung over the head of Baltimore Raven Haloti Ngata.

I was required to do administrative work such as prepare the green room for Michael Phelps and assist with craft services, but primarily I worked as a Production Assistant setting up lights with the Key Grip and the Gaffer as well as Assisting with the camera department.

As the on set dresser I was responsible for coordinating props, replacing props, as well as preparing and maintaining the set design before, and during filming.

As data wrangler I worked on set with the DP, Assistant Camera, and Editor to take Raw RED Camera footage, back it up, organize it, and transcode it into a format suitable for the Editor to work with.
