For the women's side of Somerset Cricket Club, we needed to be innovative with our content to grown the following in their inaugural season. I filmed segments of this mic'd-up clip as a part of the content team's efforts to reach new audiences.
Captured a reel of Craig Overton winning the match on a Viltrox E-T10 slo-mo camera and then edited in Final Cut Pro to bring parts of the reel to full speed and keep the stroke slow to bring the reel to life. It had 60k views on Instagram X in the first 24 hours.
A slo-mo video I captured with a Viltrox E-T10 was then edited vertically, showing my ability to create quality content with a variety of cameras.
< I converted a clip of a record-breaking moment that I filmed with a Lumix S5 IIX and 100-400mm F1.4 - 5.6 lens and converted it into a TikTok straight after the moment with 67.7k views.
I filmed the ball fly over our media centre and immediately saw potential to turn it into a TikTok in CapCut if I could retrieve the ball, which I did. It resonated with the cricket audience and drew 2.7 million views. >
While my time as social media manager for Solent Hockey came with an inherited minimal following. My efforts to transform the quality of graphics and content more than doubled the engagement with the account over my six month tenure.
