I'm Lydia, an experienced and creative video producer, shooter, and editor. Currently, I work as a video producer and editor with NowThis, the most-watched news brand on social media. I pitch, write, and edit engaging documentary-style videos on tight deadlines that reach millions. Since 2016, I've been a freelance videographer and editor, producing dozens of projects including commercials for private businesses, mini-documentaries, music videos, event showcases, weddings, and more. I can record on-site video and audio with industry-standard equipment and work on the fly to capture the most compelling moments. Finally, I can deliver polished edits with music, sound effects, color treatment, and motion graphics. I would love to work together, whether editing a video, shooting in the field, or taking on a project from start to finish.

For as long as I can remember, I’ve been a storyteller and my work reflects that part of myself. From contemporary affairs through journalism to creative short stories, I aim to engage viewers and provide a true understanding of important issues in our media driven culture. I’ve had a varied media career over the past 10 years. Commercial photo illustrator, travel photographer, web designer, and videographer are just a few of the hats I’ve worn… even a short stint as a goat ranch hand. This range (herding pun intended) of experience has provided insight into media across platforms and some pretty crazy adventures too. My digital diversity and subsequent long hours with various media software directed me straight to a true passion in animation and motion graphics. I can’t imagine finding something I enjoy more or work harder at.

Some of the stories I have written about include Syria’s Civil War, the mass shooting in San Bernardino and America’s heated election cycle.

I have an unquenchable thirst to learn and enlighten others. I truly believe quality information is the first step to solving any of our world's problems. When I'm not chasing a story, you can probably find me trying to master a new skill. My latest - learning to paint like Bob Ross and miserable attempts at surfing.

I am a cinematographer and editor who recently relocated from Shanghai to New York. I have worked on a range of projects including music videos, commercials, and marketing work for Harvard, MIT, Google, Twitter, the US Nay, Reebok, and Martha Stewart. Documentaries have always interested me and this is a field I would love to get into. I would enjoy searching for the story wherever it may lead and would not mind facing dangerous situations to get it. Traveling is one of my favorite activities, having visited 31 countries across 4 continents (including 38 US States, 21 Chinese provinces, and 20 Philippine islands) and having lived in 4 countries on 3 continents. I believe this could be an incredible opportunity to tell compelling stories in extremely interesting places.
