Well howdy, WETA 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 WETA 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 Production Assistant for this project and handled talent on set and worked as assistant camera man. I was also in charge of the set up and break down of all equipment. I prepped all materials and assisted on all aspects of this multi-day production.
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. During several episodes I ran and prepped the teleprompter and even directed a couple episodes. 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 and make them comfortable.
EFP-TV: Montgomery College
Produced for MCTV, I wrote and produced all of the voice overs, anchor shots and created the design for the “live studio.” I managed all camera equipment and directed the main day of production. I assisted in the writing, editing and filming of most of the feature packages.
