Hello!
My name is Jasper and I am a storyteller. I believe it is everyone’s responsibility to do their part to to make the world a better place, and for me that is through sharing important stories and information in video.
Videos by passionate people have educated me, changed my views, and inspired me. I want to make videos that can create that change in other people.
In May, 2024, I graduated from the Edward R. Murrow College of Communication with a Bachelor of Art in Multimedia Journalism with a minor in Political Science. I am currently seeking employment in video production, and am willing to travel or relocate.
I have experience creating engaging videos around many topics including art exhibitions, the role fire plays in the Sequoia ecosystems, and social justice movements like unions.
If you think I might be a good fit for your project, please contact me: jasper.willson@gmail.com
