Austin Orr Email and Phone Number

For the past 6 years, I've lived and worked in the Knoxville community on countless creative and commercial ventures. I am currently serving as the Technology Coordinator in the Office of Student media at the University of Tennessee. I get to work with students everyday, and I am very passionate about seeing them grow their photography and videography skills. I am experienced with a variety of cinema and photography cameras. I work primarily with Sony system cameras in my current role, but also am responsible for training photographers with Canon DSLR and mirrorless cameras. I have also been instrumental in the purchasing of new technology within our office, as well as maintaining our older equipment. I am proficient in Adobe Premiere Pro and Adobe Photoshop. I've used the applications to create animations, long/short-form video projects, advertisements, thumbnails, print and digital content. I have also curated a robust photography portfolio over the past 6 years that you can view below.I currently volunteer for the Great Smokey Mountain National Park and RIO Revolution Church in Maryville, TN. I serve as a volunteer videographer for both organizations. My work with the Great Smoky Mountain National Park has blossomed into a grant that the park has arranged with my office at UT. Under this grant, our student-run, commercial production unit will produce a variety of video projects for the park over the next year.
