      The ASUW Shell House is one of the two remaining World War I airplane hangars left in the US, and was also the training ground for the UW's boys rowing team that won the 1936 Olympics in Nazi Germany. The building is undergoing a capital campaign with the hope of renovating it into a gathering space for UW students. I was tasked with researching the building's history, scripting, filming, and producing a call to action video to help raise donations from the community. The video has helped the campaign in raising 3 million dollars including a 100k grant from the state. Video can be found on my website Show less
