Digital

I have created digital content in different formats used on social media platforms for sharing news and information with specific brand criteria. This includes formats such as infographics, text-over-video, and multimedia stories.

Text-over-video on Jade Music Festival in November 2022

I have taken original pictures for visual enhancement and context of stories being covered by myself or colleagues, or for social media sharing.

A gallery of pictures I took for BCIT News’ coverage of the procession for Cst. Shaelyn Yang in Richmond on November 2, 2022 can be seen below.

A gallery of pictures I took for an online story on a local group of pickleball players in Surrey can be seen below.

I have created original social media graphics for BCIT News that were shared independently of a written story.

.@Rogers and @ShawSpotlight's merger has hit a major roadblock this week. Both companies have said they would sell off assets to make the transaction fair for Canadians but the Competition Bureau has said it's not enough.

I have also used digital resources to create interactive elements for readers for stories, like timelines with specific dates.

TIMELINE: The legacy of Roberto Luongo as a Vancouver Canuck

TIMELINE: John Horgan’s legacy as premier and BC NDP leader

I also promote my duties for BCIT News online to help share what I was covering or working on to further promote my story and keep followers up-to-date.

With #RemembranceDay coming up, municipalities are preparing for a return to full in-person gatherings, as there are no COVID-19 restrictions for the first time in two years. I'll be finding out what this means for organizers and veterans this November.@BCIT_Journalism

Had a great chat with Lindsay Rempel of @My_CCK about the difficulty of supplying food for anyone who needs it due to inflation.

"When the cost of food is so high, people are less willing to buy extra that they can donate to a food bank."@BCIT_Journalism pic.twitter.com/Po0p1kMivB
