Carolyne always seeks to find an authentic connection with her subjects and is passionate about the ability of visual storytelling to tell an accurate and powerful narrative. Carolyne began her journey as a photographer and visual storyteller in college; the magic chemistry of a white sheet of paper slowly developing into an image as the chemistry washed over was addicting and she changed her major Fine Art after struggling and failing with a Biology major and not being interested in the career aspects of a History degree. After university Carolyne worked as an assistant to photographer Jay Reilly, a photo editor for Sumner Photography, and assistant editor for photographer Joy Doherty, and she was the Lead BTS Still Photographer on the feature-length film To Save A Life (2009). After taking a journalism class at the local community college, Carolyne was asked if she wanted to intern at the San Diego Union-Tribune where she worked as an intern in the photo department of the News section. Her first brush with photojournalism she was hooked, previously not realizing her love of documentary photography and real-time history could be combined. After the internship, she continued to take classes in journalism and even was the Photo Editor at the Palomar College's student newspaper the Chariot. During this period Carolyne worked as a server and bartender throughout north San Diego County, honing her social skill set, learning how to interact with people, and getting them to like and trust her immediately. With her husband, they started a screen-printing company called Noble Ink where they made the merchandise for local music acts in San Diego. Through her time in the food industry, Carolyne backpacked through Europe, Mexico, and the United States, and also took the time to pursue her own personal projects covering the migrant caravan, wild horse roundups, and the sociological and ecological impact of Burning Man. Once the pandemic hit, Carolyne saw her restaurant close down and all of her freelance photography gigs canceled, she realized it was her one chance to be able to throw herself into studying filmmaking and storytelling. Again she enrolled in classes at her local community college, learning filmmaking, editing, and motion graphics. In the spring of 2020, she began an internship at KOCT - The Voice of North County, a local non-profit public access channel and production house starting as an audio technician and moving up to camera operating, floor directing, and teleprompter. She expanded her skill set to include focus pulling and slate as an Assistant Camera while working on several short films and a feature film in Los Angeles in 2021, 2022, and 2023. Currently, Carolyne works as the Lead Production Staff at KOCT and is the lead Videographer/Editor at San Diego LabRats.

I would like to continue to grow, and move forward with my career as a Director. I have been a paid videographer since I was 15 years old, studied cinema at George Mason University, and New York Film Academy, freelanced on major commercial sets with Jonas Akerlund for two years in Los Angeles, CA, and have been with Buzzfeed for what will be the total of 9 mos. I’ve been fortunate enough to work in Buzzfeed’s VR and 360 department using the Odyssey camera from Google. VR greatly interests me, and I believe it to be the “final frontier” of cinema. I am an avid traveler, and have been globe trotting since before I could walk. I completed a feature-length documentary, "Sailing On A Shoestring", for my senior thesis in college. The film is about my dad, who built his own boat during the height of the Apartheid in South Africa, and then proceeded to cross the Atlantic three times. The documentary allows him to relive his memories of sailing, and follows him in search of his vessel's fate. More recently, I have completed three short documentaries. Two of which from Film Stuff Productions in Italy and Poland, and the third with Buzzfeed.

I, Dave (DG) Sorafine have been working in television since I was 15 years old. My passion for being behind the camera and documenting anything and everything started at a very early age. Everybody, including mother nature, has a unique personal story to tell, and I want to tell it through my camera lens. While my early career has been mostly centered around sports and lifestyle filming, I also have a desire for narrative scripted storytelling. I feel like not being able to control your environment prepares you for virtually any kind of scenario that should arise on set or in the field. My experiences have made me an incredibly patient, passionate, and proactive storyteller. Everytime I take the camera out for a job, it feels like I'm embarking on a new adventure with a new team of people ready to document something special. I've been lucky enough to work with such clients as ESPN, NFL Network, PGA Tour Entertainment, Time Warner Cable, Golf Channel, NBC & Disney.

I started out as still photographer freelancing in the Washington D.C. Area. I was published in just about every magazine in town as well as National and International news outlets. I was able to travel thanks my camera. I love melting into the crowd or background and capturing the moment, mood or feeling. After years of freelance I worked as a press photographer for the U.S. Department of State. A few years in, State hired me to produce, shoot, direct, and edit short form documentaries traveling domestically and internationally. For me, documentaries are personal insights to spectacular people and their lives. Sometimes I want to expose a wrong and sometimes I just want to revel in someone's goodness, quirkiness, talent, silliness. What makes humankind act the way we do? What motivates us to make choices, start organizations, ruin lives for our own gain? How does one find their demise? Human life is so pedestrian at times and then so unpredictable. Our duality is fascinating.
