Other Work

MTV Canada:
While working at MTV Canada I got a chance to work on some segments for the Live show as well as pitch stories for MTV News. I was always doing odd-jobs around the office and transcribed many interviews as well.

MTV Live: After the Internship

Atticus Canada:
At Atticus Canada I helped put on one of the biggest tours the company had ever done throughout Canada. I updated the website, made a magazine for the tour, promoted the tour, created prize-packs and had face-to-face interaction with many sponsors who helped fund the tour.

The Daily Planet:
These pieces were for the daily planet, an online news source that was introduced in my final year. We had to contribute two video pieces as well as some written work. You can see my videos below.

November, Movember Awareness

Press Plus 1
A friend of mine asked me if I could do a review of a concert I went to for her website as she couldn’t make it out. It’s just a quick little article about the bands and people who attended.

Humber College Review
Recently someone over at Art School Reviews came across my resume and asked me to contribute a piece about my time and experience at Humber College.
