Video

This is where my experience in multimedia versatility has really taken shape. I produced and edited all of the videos below for the use of the University of Wisconsin-Platteville. The videos promote scholarship, student and faculty research, experiential learning activities, new building projects, chancellor messages and other university highlights that help meet our mission. As I tackle all aspects of these videos such as storyboarding, shooting and editing, I also work closely and develop relationships with stakeholders, students and faculty.

Working in Adobe Premiere and Photoshop, I create and produce the videos for either the university's Youtube page, or directly share them to our social media platforms. In addition, I also compose and produce all songs and sound effects in the videos. With the increasing popularity of TikTok and Instagram Reels over the last few years, I have also adapted in that area and I am now an expert in vertical video production as well.

One of twelve Board of Regents feature videos I produced in 2017. This video features Dr. Marilyn Tufte and her long history at UW-Platteville. The video was also produced to show the need for an upgrade to UW-Platteville’s Beobel Hall. The building is set to start restoration construction in February 2020.

As one of the state's oldest universities, we take pride in UW-Platteville's traditions and history. Thousands of alumni, faculty and friends came together in 2016 to celebrate our sesquicentennial homecoming.

Regent Eve Hall visit to UW-Platteville 2018

I’m often asked to produce work in a day or less. This video of Regent Eve Hall’s visit to campus was an example of this. I was able to shoot, interview, edit and distribute this video all in one afternoon.

This video features an alumna who’s t-shirt design won the Brewer’s t-shirt design contest and was given away at a game.

UW-Platteville students present research posters at the state capitol rotunda to legislators from around the state.

I have attended every Research in the Rotunda event since 2013 and made videos featuring everyone from students, faculty and even President Ray Cross.

Chancellor's Message for January 2016

I work closely with the chancellor on social media and video to produce his content such as these monthly messages we produced in 2015-16 semesters.

Several years back, we recruited a former cheerleader for our Pioneer Pete mascot. The result was a mascot with some amazing athleticism and a perfect chance for some opportunities for fun features and holidays videos.

When possible, I love to get outside and produce pretty campus videos set to music. Short, sweet and shows off the most beautiful parts of campus.

Chancellor Visit Spring Green

Corporate Relations was a new area in our University Relations department over the last two years. I was asked to come along to corporate visits to photograph and produce videos. I eventually got enough footage to bring videos like this one along for the visits for the Corporate Relations staff to show.

The videos below are more examples of various projects I’ve produced over the years. For more examples, you can search the UW-Platteville YouTube channel.

In the spring of 2015, UW-Platteville industrial studies students took on the challenge of casting several necessary and difficult window assemblies for the restoration of Frank Lloyd Wright's Taliesin in Spring Green, Wisconsin. Check out the students getting to see the parts installed on several of the windows at Taliesin for the first time in this video.

Cricket frogs are endangered in Wisconsin, but are present in Grant County. Seniors Sammie Tomczewski and Allison Wells, along with their professor, Dr. John Peterson, take necessary steps in research to better protect the frogs and preserve their wetlands in the region.

We followed seniors Maria Smiles and Geoffrey Ament through their final semester's PACCE (Pioneer Academic Center of Community Engagement) funded project in the spring of 2015. They worked closely with a community partner to produce an assisted clarinet embouchure to give her the opportunity to play the instrument again after being diagnosed with Bell's Palsy, a weakening of the muscles on one side of the face.

Starting here at UW-Platteville when she was only 16, Katherine Jinkins has put in many hours of hard work and research over the last 4 years.
