Background

About Jonathan Piotrowski

Communications professional with a Bachelor’s from the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign, experienced in video production, broadcasting, and customer service. Currently serving as an Associate Producer at Nexstar Broadcasting (WCIA3), I manage camera operations, edit video packages, and produce segments for live shows. My role involves traveling for on-location filming, working under tight deadlines, and coordinating closely with directors, talent, and technical staff to ensure seamless broadcasts. Prior to this, I built customer service expertise with Pavlov Media, handling technical troubleshooting and managing customer interactions across multiple channels. I’ve also worked in video production roles with UIUC Marketing and Illini Public Media (IPM), gaining experience across the full production lifecycle—from pre-production to post-production—while collaborating with creative teams and clients. Proficient in Photoshop, Premiere, and After Effects, I am passionate about storytelling through video and digital media. As I continue my career, I aim to expand into social media management and content strategy, leveraging my media background to create engaging online content and drive audience engagement.
