Video Production / Photography
"creative, respectful video" and "sensitive editing" (Broad Street Review)
"The camera work was intimate without being intrusive" (Chestnut Hill Local)
Concerts and performances
Samples of concerts and performances recorded with one or two crew members. Most samples include sound recorded by a professional sound engineer that was integrated into the video. Sharon Torello performed all camera work and video editing. A few were recorded in front of a live audience.
Horticultural Interviews and Education
A few samples from interviews and educational videos created for Jenkins Arboretum & Gardens and Bartram's Garden. Sharon Torello produced a "Wednesday Walkabout" series to replace in person tours at Jenkins Arboretum & Gardens in 2020. A total of 28 videos were delivered in a little over a year and the series helped to keep enthusiasts engaged with the garden. These were recorded in solo operator using short sessions for quick turnaround. Many were shot and delivered within 1-2 weeks. The series may be viewed on the Jenkins Arboretum & Gardens YouTube channel
Presentations: Introductions, fundraisers, promos, announcements
All presentation videos were created entirely by Sharon Torello. I recorded video and audio, and provided lighting, when needed. These types of videos can be shot in a wide variety of settings and may include stills, b-roll, graphics, and other features to help tell your story. Common applications are: Concert introductions, fundraisers, event promotions, and announcements.
