HI! I'm Abbie!


I am 22 years old and graduated from Ivy Tech for Visual Communications! I have always loved art and creating. Ever since I can remember I have been doing something creative. From drawing, painting, crafts, and now this! This field felt natural to fall into!
When I was in high school I wasn't sure what field I wanted to go into, but I knew it had to have the ability to create. I loved creating videos for my high school's football team and student section. The editing process was so fun to me!
​
I didn't start out in Visual Communications though. I started over at Purdue Fort Wayne for Interior Design, but quickly realized I wanted to be out filming and editing.


WHY I love WHAT I do


Being able to storytell through the video process is something I love! Getting to know the person and vision before touching the camera, and being able to connect. Having a relationship and setting that in place first helps with the rest of the process. I love getting to meet new people.
Every project is different. They all come with different ideas, perspectives, and needs. Getting to try a new angle, concept, and approach makes this job so interesting! There is so much room for creativity and conveying concepts. The filming process allows for new ideas!
The editing process is another part of the filming process that I love! Being able to add music that conveys a feeling or emotion without needing to use words is important! This can make or break a video, and finding the right song is an amazing feeling. The way putting certain clips together to line up with the beat and feeling can draw so much to a video. Not to forget audio! Audio of a subject speaking adds something special and unique to a video. It can draw in even more emotion. Putting all the these parts together creates a unique and special story. Something to relive over and over again. Video is great for bringing back memories and experiences!
