Jesse Blaskovits
Videographer | Editor | Writer | Director | Producer
I have 15 years of experience producing engaging content for commercials, documentaries, weddings, music videos, and short films. My work has taken me from capturing wildlife in the Yukon to productions across Africa and Europe. I'm proficient with professional camera systems and maintain expert-level knowledge of the Adobe Creative Suite. I stay at the forefront of emerging technologies including VR, AR, and AI integration. My experience includes managing teams, working with clients, and consistently delivering projects on time and on budget. I bring technical expertise, creative solutions, and clear communication to every project.
Responsible for planning, shooting, and editing both photo and video content for the marketing department. Key tasks include reviewing campaign directives, writing scripts and proposals, and managing equipment and crew. Content is delivered in various aspect ratios, languages, and durations.

Currently, I am the Video Media Lead at Bodwell High School in North Vancouver. I also teach film history on weekends. In my free time, I create websites, apps, scripts, and businesses, while researching new technologies like AI and Web3 to enhance my projects. I'm a bit of a workaholic, and I love art.
