WKAR-TV: BackStage Pass

As an intern with WKAR-TV, I was able to work as an audio assistant on BackStage Pass, a state-wide syndicated show featuring performances by Michigan artists. Concerts were held in the WKAR studios, where I assisted with set up and tear down of live sound reinforcement systems, and helped to monitor audio levels during the performance. In Season 10, some episodes featured performances at Michigan BluesFest, including Eliza Neals, featured below. During BluesFest performances, I was trusted with the live mixing of the audio for a live stream of the event.

Venezuela: A Country in Crisis

Venezuela: A Country in Crisis is an informative news style audio feature that explores the causes and effects of the Venezuelan economic crisis on everyday life, the Venezuelan people, and refugees seeking asylum. After coming up with the concept for this project, I pitched my idea, researched the issue, and wrote the piece. I arranged two interviews with Venezuelans living in the US, and provided narration myself. This piece also features original music and sound design.
