I've worked with MrBeast, Kraft Heinz, Highdive, DDB Chicago, and the University of Illinois / Big Ten Network to create social media native content that gets a brand's message to younger generations in a way that isn't interruptive.Follow me where I create content!Instagram: @ryanleshockTikTok: @ryanleshockYouTube: @ryanleshockHIGH SCHOOLI created Elevated Media, a video production company, to keep me actively creating new content every day for real clients. Through this, I met feature-length film producer, Joe Orlandino, on the set of "Rain Beau's End," an independent feature film. I also got involved in larger-scale productions like Chicago Med, cast as paid talent for a 7 day period.FRESHMANI quickly involved myself in every photography and videography club and numerous other freelance opportunities. I also grew my video production business by reaching out to sororities, creating recruitment videos.SOPHOMOREStill finding an abundance of free time, I turned toward professional positions on campus. I landed videographer / editor jobs at every single campus department that needed it, many concurrently. I still continued to work with numerous clients for my own production company, I was in the process of producing two of my own student short films, and I kept up with my personal YouTube channel and TikTok account as well.Summer Internships: I was the sole videographer for a massive rail company who independently relied on me for their videography needs, sending me across the country to numerous cities to capture footage. I also traveled out West for a feature-length documentary where I was the sole audio operator and drone pilot.JUNIORI created a TikTok video series that has amassed over 50 Million views and over 160k followers. This introduced me to the high-level creator world of social media where I partnered with numerous brands and business to create social media promotions and campaigns. If you're thinking of connecting with me and shooting me a message, end it with "and my fire truck is faster than yours. let's race." and i'll know you're a real one and read through this and try to respond to you asap! Thanks for checking me out!Summer Internship: I interned with DDB Chicago, a Global Advertising Agency, in the Production department where I learned the processes behind how commercials and brand activations get created.SENIORI have been studying social media algorithms and now create content that goes viral on purpose.
