One of the things Iβm most proud of from my time at FC Cincinnati is the unveiling of our Juncta Juvant Kit in February of 2022. During this unveiling I was responsible for the copywriting and execution across all of our social and digital channels. I also came up with the concept for the video reveal and put together the pitch deck that was used by a third-party agency. Overall the rollout was a massive success and the new kit was well received by fans and non-fans alike.
I pride myself on my ability to turn around real-time content during matches. Whether this is a field level goal clip or a post game celebration, I think it is of the utmost importance to strike while the iron is hot and give the fans an engaging second screen experience. Below are some of my favorite examples of this kind of content. All of these photos and videos were captured by myself and then distributed in real-time.
One of my favorite parts of my job at FC Cincinnati is creating cinematic recaps after big wins. My goal with these pieces is to not only tell the story of the match from a unique perspective, but also give the fans an inside look into moments they might not see on TV.
The offseason leading in to the 2022 season was a big one for FC Cincinnati. The team was coming off another disappointing season and looking to do a major rebuild under the newly appointed head coach and general manager. Because of this, there was a lot of roster turnover. I was responsible for capturing, editing, and posting all of the announcements of the newly signed players.
One of the benefits that comes with opening a brand new soccer-specific stadium is being able to host some of the biggest soccer matches. In 2021 we hosted both the US Menβs and Womenβs National Team. Here are some selects from the USWNTβs victory over Paraguay.
For a number of road matches during the 2022 season, I was responsible for capturing strictly photo. This meant shooting everything from travel, to scene setters, to match action. All of my match action photos were sent in real-time back to our social team in Cincy using an FTP network I set up. These are some sample images from a road win in Minnesota.
On December 14, 2021, FC Cincinnati announced Pat Noonan as the clubβs new head coach. This was a huge announcement for the club as it signaled new beginnings and created a sense of optimism among the fan base. 24 hours before the announcement went live, I helped organize and shoot both photo and video content of Pat to accompany the announcement.
During the 2022 preseason, I spent over 4 weeks with the team in Clearwater, Florida. My main goals during this time were to familiarize our fans with the new players and coaches, and get the fan base excited for the upcoming season.
