Senior Video ProducerWHEN
Spring 2014In 2014, as Senior Video Producer at Oogeewoogee, a Philadelphia startup, I played a pivotal role in talent scouting, content management, and art direction. Contributing to the company's mission of creating short-form video exposés inspired by hip-hop culture, my work featured diverse talent and crews from the underserved Philadelphia area.
As a Producer, creative, and mentor, I empowered local creatives with limited commercial experience, providing opportunities to create on-location segments from major events like SXSW, TIFF, and the Puerto Rican Day Parade. I curated showcases featuring internationally published poets, platinum-selling hip-hop musicians, and popular visual artists.
Despite Oogeewoogee eventually folding, the mission was a success. The talent I worked with has since flourished in careers beyond their Philadelphia neighborhood, finding success at companies like MTV, YG Entertainment (Korea), Barstool Sports, and NPR.
