Demo Reel
This section of my portfolio features various short form, long form video, podcasting, and multi- media projects I have worked on or created.
DFS Volunteer Appreciation Day Instagram Reel (2025).
This reel I made for Dress for Success Vancouver for their Volunteer Appreciation Day. I was tasked with capturing the overall feel of the evening, moments of women sharing their stories, gratitude, and laughter. The evening commenced with a spread featuring appetizers followed by accolades given out to 2025’s Volunteer’s of the Month. Board members also spoke and gave kudos to all the volunteers in attendance.
Tapatio: Integration Video (2019).
This video was made in collaboration with Jeca Martinez and Carlos Vega and illustrates product integration into an advertising sequence. This video style of product placement was very common, and is presently featured through out traditional and social media advertising placements. This video was made for a project during my graduate program.
Think Thrift: How to Style Thrift Store Clothing (2019).
This video is both informative and visually engaging. As fast fashion declines, the rise of second-hand shopping has become more prominent. Being an avid thrifter and sustainable advocate myself, I wanted to share my tips for navigating the thrift store. I scouted the location and interviewed the manager who acted as the video’s subject matter expert.
Let’s get Spiritual Podcast (2020).
I’ve always been fascinated by the concept of faith and spirituality. The connection humans have created through spirituality and religion has allowed groups to believe that “the universe”, “source”, or “God” holds this higher power. A power that helps guide us in this life. I believe that everything is connected, but wouldn’t consider myself religious. This podcast was created in collaboration with Asha Supaul, a close friend I met during my undergraduate years. This podcast was produced as part of an undergraduate school assignment. Asha shares her experiences with me growing up Hindu, while I discuss my secular upbringing. Together, we explore the idea that spirituality when led with empathy, drives that interconnectedness we all feel to each other and to something greater. Purposeful action starts with self-awareness, and self awareness can influence faith.
An Ode to 1984: A Juxtaposition of Old vs. New Media (2018).
This video showcases a stop-motion animation I created, blending both modern and traditional media to highlight the manipulation of mass communication. It visually suggests how today’s media can resemble the control depicted in "Big Brother."
