Well howdy, CNN DC team…
My name is Donald Mirisola. I hope you like what you see…
So… here’s what I do.
I’m a technical creator with a passion for large scale projects. With a background in both Audio Visual Engineering and Digital Storytelling, I combine the solutions of A/V with the creativity of Film. I reside in Maryland and I love merging new technology with video and audio. I’m hungry for knowledge and I’m excited about all aspects of audio visual integration, film production and new emerging A/V Technologies.
Here’s some projects I think the CNN team might like:
Montgomery College Commercial
This major state wide commercial saw play on both major local networks and managed social media ads (including Instagram, Twitter & Facebook). I assisted as a P.A. for this project and handled talent on set and worked as assistant camera man.
Mi Escuela es su Escuela
This production was produced in both english and spanish separately during tapings. I was in charge of questions, host and talent management as well as camera operation. This program sees extensive play on Channel 10 and is a staple program of MCTV’s lineup. I assisted in 10-15 episodes of the this show’s production.
Though Spanish is not a language I am fluent in, I consistently worked on learning enough to assist the guests well and consistently.
TBD Immersive: Cabaret Rising
This was such a unique production. I was in charge of the audio production. Created as an “Immersive Theater” event, I was given an extremely shoe string budget. I had to manage a small audio install team, engineer entire workflow drawings and commission the entire production in less than an 8 hour period. In the end 24 recycled ceiling speakers were installed across the entire 55,000 sq. ft. Dupont Underground Art Gallery. Along with several separate remote speaker systems within a moving trolley train car.
