Live Video Directing
THE PROJECT
Pickathon is a music festival founded in 1999 in Oregon. It presents music talent in a smaller, non-commercial, and relaxed environment. Genres are indie rock, hip-hop, folk, jazz and rhythm & blues. Performances take place in multiple indoor and outdoor settings, including a wooded amphitheater and a barn.
THE PROCESS
Over the past two years (2023/2024) I’ve collaborated with bands from around the world and worked alongside a skilled group of crew members.
One of my key roles has been live video directing for the Festival, where I’ve managed visuals, making real-time decisions on camera angles and shot selections, and communicating those items to the camera operators.
THE RESULT
These live shows are broadcast directly to a YouTube feed.
