behind-the-scenes action, and more.
Press On
2021/22 Post-Season Playoff Hype Video
Role: Script Writer, Voice Coach, Director, Post-Producer, Creative Lead
During the 2021-2022 Philadelphia Eagles season, once it was confirmed we made the playoffs and would advance into postseason, our team set out to create a ‘hype video’ that would engage and excite the fans leading up to the first playoff game. We had just under a week to create the video, receive all final approvals, and deliver a finished product for all social channels. I began by writing a script for our Offensive Lineman, Lane Johnson, with the intent of an authentic and passionate speech. After collaborating with Marketing, Public Relations, and Football Operations, I was able to gain constructive feedback and make revisions quickly in order to deliver a final product with all necessary approvals. Last, I assigned roles to different members of my team such as Editor, Audio Engineer, and Color Correction in order to ensure all aspects were covered. I worked primarily as the Director of the shoot, coaching our talent on reading the script as intended.
Birds of
A Feather
2022 Regular Season Kick-Off featuring celebrity Eagles fan Morris Chestnut
Role: Script Writer, Talent Coordinator, Set Director, Post-Producer, Editor
Each year, we created a piece that would engage fans and viewers, and excite them for the upcoming season. This video was intended for social platforms, as well as to play in-stadium right before the team entered the field. For this piece, we set up a custom shoot with actor Morris Chestnut to narrate our story, while also incorporating elements from a previous large-scale shoot earlier in the summer. I was the lead producer for the piece, which included roles such as script writing, location scouting, set lighting, and coordinating the cinematography. On set, I acted as the Director and ensured each scene fit my vision for the final piece.
Hype Day
BTS
2021 Hype Day | Behind-the-Scenes
Role: Director/Producer, Project Manager
"Hype Day" is an annual full day shoot where internal content teams and external media gain access to the entire roster of players at once. We create multiple sets to film and produce multi-purpose content across all media channels. In my role, I worked to create an original vision, which I then pitched to senior leadership for approval. From there, I began hiring vendors and coordinating all relevant logistics for operations. In addition, I engaged key internal stakeholders such as Public Relations, Operations, Football Equipment, and so on. Externally, I worked with Network TV (Fox, CBS, NBC, ESPN) to ensure we accommodated their needs. On shoot day, I was the Executive Producer on every aspect from catering to cinematography, set design to breakdown. The most challenging part about this shoot is the several months of planning for only one opportunity to capture the needed content.
Tailgate
Time
4-Part Commercial Series in Partnership with Crown Royal featuring Kate Flannery
Role: Writer/Producer, Operations Manager, Creative Lead
"Tailgate Time" was a four-part series produced in conjunction with corporate partner, Crown Royal. The directive was to promote their brand and feature different cocktail recipes, while incorporating a fun sports theme. I felt this could best be accomplished in a comedic format and set about creating that. I accomplished this through casting actress Kate Flannery, Merideth from "The Office", based on her improv skills and Philadelphia roots. In addition, we worked with a local acting agency to hire extras for the roles of customers. My main roles were ideating the story for each script, handling vendors and budget, and directing on shoot day. Below is one of the finished pieces.
