60 North - 2015 to 2017

60 North was an innovative digital content platform that brought Shetland's creative community together to present the islands as a fantastic place to visit, live, work, study or do business with.

As part of the digital content team I produced 21 video and audio assets for 60 North Video and 60 North Radio. I also assisted with set-up, filming and vision mixing of ten live broadcasts; and managed the online scheduling of the video platform. In addition to this role I wrote three articles for 60 North Magazine.
