Jun 2021 - Present
Originally hired as the second (back-up) operator for 2021 season, I was brought back and promoted to the primary operator for the 2022 season based on my performance. Returned for the 2023 season. I performed several tasks, such as setting up the pitch radar gun pre-game, taking care of the camera and charging associated batteries, communicating with the Technical Director and other staff to understand the current plan of activities and my assignments for the game, operating different types of video cameras, setting up and recording pre-game show (the Air Show), capturing between-inning fan activities for display on the Jumbotron, and when possible live game action. Also have been taught how to operate the sound system, and completed a game as the sound operator. That included walk-up songs, pre-game music and sponsor videos, between-inning on-field activities, hype-ups during the innings, and post-game fireworks. Was also technical director for 2022 HCPS High School Graduations, included setting up cameras for ceremonies, testing audio equipment and changing batteries, switching cameras for the livestream, and playing videos on the video board. Have photographed games on occasion. Work has been featured on MiLB.tv livestreams, team websites, players' personal social media accounts, and the official MiLB website and social media platforms. Camera operator for all home playoff games in 2022, captured winning shots for the IronBirds semi-final victories, as well as the winning shot and ceremonies for 2022 South Atlantic League Championship-clinching game.
