About
Oh hey! I’m Craig. I’ve been living in New York City since 2017 while working in Documentary and Realtiy Television across all departments. I got my start in live broadcast while attending Asbury University in Wilmore, Kentucky. One of my first paid TV jobs was in Rio de Janeiro at the 2016 Summer Olympics where I was stationed in the Aquatic Stadium as a Camera Assistant and Utility, working on the field of play with the steadicam operators for OBS. It was in Rio where I first caught the travel bug, knowing that I wanted to see every continent and share stories and perspectives that really make us think about and appreciate how all our cultures and differences may appear so drastic on the outside, but in reality we're all humans who deserve to be understood within the context of our own cultural histories, philosophies and religions, foods, and all other aspects that contribute to who we all are as indviduals. I’ve specifically developed a passion for Cinéma Vérité, as I love getting to know people for who they really are when they cast aside any inhibitions and behave as their true selves, rather than feign a new personality that’s friendly for social media and the public. I’ve worked my way up from being a Production Assistant to working Master Control and Graphics in local news before moving onto Post and Production Management, and eventually working in Producing roles in network documentary television and eSports broadcasts where I've been traveling the world one story at a time.
Let’s talk! I can’t wait to help tell your next story.
