My Dream Job

This week’s blog will be about my dream job (emphasis on DREAM). I have always been really interested in film making, videography, and editing videos I take to tell a story. In grade school I would always be playing around with our school’s video cameras with my friends, making short movies about literally anything. It was just so interesting to me how to come up with fun ideas to shoot, unique angles to shoot from, and taking the ordinary footage and editing it into something really fun and visually pleasing to watch. To this day I still am constantly taking videos of everything I do and editing montages or short films. In high school, I started following a lot of self-made videographers and people who shoot sports and edit them into the marketing content. I’m a marketing major right now and really do love business and the concepts behind marketing, so I thought it was a good choice for a major and I want to incorporate my love for videography and filming into a future job. My dream job that has been in my mind for the past few years is sports and entertainment marketing. I want to work for either the Milwaukee Bucks, University of Wisconsin, or the University of Michigan in their athletic/marketing teams and be able to shoot a variety of sports (mainly men’s basketball and football) and create the marketing content for their social media accounts. I really want to get involved with something like that at Dayton while I’m going to school here to get my foot in the door and see if its something I’d be good at or passionate about.
