Jun 2014 - Nov 2014
My job was to effectively document SeaTrek BVI's operations and post them to the web for marketing to current and future clients. I utilized my Canon DSLR to take photos and videos of our adventures. I then used Photoshop, Lightroom, and Final Cut Pro daily to create promotional info graphics and videos highlighting activities. I was responsible for taking photos on land and utilizing underwater cameras for photographs underwater. In addition to my photo and video responsibilities I was in a leadership position and helped manage our boats crew, roughly 14 people. While living aboard a boat for 3 months I assisted in sailing our 46' catamaran as well as daily crew responsibilities such as preparing meals, cleaning, and delegating other assignments Show less
