BruinLife is UCLA's official campus yearbook. I was sent on photojournalist assignments to capture campus events, taking both candid moments and portraits of students and faculty. I learned how to use photo sorting and photo editing software, like Photo Mechanic and Adobe Lightroom. I attended training sessions taught by Todd Bigelow that ranged from basic techniques, like how to properly light subjects, to advanced story telling, like capturing the story and composing a shot that evokes emotion. I pitched assignments for myself and others to take on, as well as oversaw projects within and across quarters.
