For the Chicago Greek Picnic project, I had the privilege of serving as the lead videographer, capturing the essence of this vibrant cultural event. My role encompassed a full suite of cinematic production techniques, from pre-event planning and location scouting to on-the-ground direction and post-production editing.

Throughout the event, I focused on showcasing the energy and unity of the Greek organizations, using dynamic camera movements, drone footage, and close-up shots to encapsulate the excitement and interactions. I also incorporated smooth transitions and color grading in post-production to give the final video a polished, cinematic look.

My approach was rooted in storytelling—creating a narrative that highlighted not just the activities but the spirit of the community. By using my cinematic skills, I was able to deliver a visually compelling piece that authentically represented my client and the essence of the Chicago Greek Picnic.
