Who am I?
My name is Marcus Veazie, I'm a 20 year-old college student based out of Athens, GA and Alpharetta, GA who's ready to turn your vision into a reality. I've had a passion for filmmaking and video editing since the fifth grade, and throughout the years, I've worked on numerous projects that have given me advanced knowledge of video production and post-production.

Creative Video/Editing - "Short 3: Wharf Talk"
Hip Hop Music Video 1 - "Is It You? " by JayWu
PSA/Documentary/Interview - "Wealthy Habits"
Podcast/Audio Engineering - "Rewind Podcast"
Roles: Producer, Writer, Editor, Videographer
For a marketing internship with non-profit, Wealthy Habits, I was tasked with creating an emotionally driven PSA for donors. In this video, my goal was to effectively communicate the impact and importance of their program.
Independent Spec Work | Shot and Edited
Roles: Videographer, Color Artist, Editor
This is an installment into a running series of shorts I do on my Instagram. This specific project demonstrates my abilities within After Effects and my capability to execute advanced editing techniques.
Assisting the director, I was tasked with b-roll videography, color correction, color grading, and editing. Through close work with the artist, I was able to execute his vision by creating a moody, yet eccentric color grade that was paired with simple cuts and brief insertions of highly edited transitions.
Hip Hop Music Video 2 - "Dorm Rap"
Roles: Co-Director, Videographer, Color Artist, Co-Editor
Roles: Head of Production, Assignment Editor, Show Editor
TV/Internet Show Assembly - "Epilepsy Gangster"
In this silly rap video of myself and a friend, we explain the perils of dorm living. Filled with creative edits and transitions, this project highlights my abilities in After Effects and in shot organization.
As head of production, I work closely with the show's creator to coordinate show concepts, create templates and handbooks for remote editors, assemble final episodes, and manage each episode's project folder.

I am the social media manager at a local business in downtown Athens. I photograph products, promotions, and other aspects of the store to pull audiences on social media. All photos are edited in Lightroom.

Narrative Short Film - "Acting Lessons " (2022)
For each episode, I use Adobe Audition to process the raw recordings into the final product. Afterwards, I edit in the intro/outro, cut out dead spaces, and rearrange sound bites to make stories more engaging and digestible.
Roles: Audio Editor
Roles: Co-Writer, Co-Director, Co-Editor, Actor
For a local film festival, a partner and I co-produced a short film. In the process, I learned lots about project management, leadership importance, and how to work with a team. The final product exemplifies my creativity and polished editing capabilities.
Advertising/Promo Video - "Wealthy Habits"
Roles: Editor
As part of a Google/FaceBook ad campaign I assisted with for non-profit, Wealthy Habits, I was tasked with creating a 15-second advertisement with engaging motion graphics. The project helped boost my knowledge of After Effects, as well as how to effectively create text graphics.
