I've recently left BOA so I'm looking for work in the film & TV industry as a camera trainee.  At BOA, I was a part of the broadcast pathway where I worked on various single-camera and multi-camera projects including short films, mini-documentaries, promotional content/advertisements, theatrical live captures, and live broadcasts.

For the majority of those projects, I took the role of camera operator. It gave me the opportunity to work with and get very familiar with Blackmagic cameras such as the Pocket Cinema Camera 4K, Studio Camera 4K Pro, and the Broadcast Ursa G2. 

I'm really passionate about photography and cinematography; I love working with cameras, shooting photo and video, as well as colour grading. I do photography in my spare-time and have built up a portfolio since I started a few years ago.

I want to become a camera trainee because working on film and TV in the camera department is the only career path I want. Being a camera trainee would allow me to learn how a professional camera department works and how they communicate with each other and other departments on set.
