I worked at Food Network for a year and a half as a shooter/producer/editor. The majority of the work I did was for the Snapchat team, but there is also some content I created for the website and the various other digital and social teams. Snapchat was a daily grind, having anywhere from 2-5 deadlines needing to be met each day, for a total of almost 1,000 videos created in the year and a half. (Please forgive all the vertical video, it comes with the territory). Lots of free food though, so no complaints here.

Doesn't have a whole lot to do with Food, but we had an Instagram-famous dog come into the office and I wasn't NOT gonna shoot and edit a really fun and adorable video with the dog.
