Background

About Michael Sellers

Telly Award Winner I am a problem solver. I am able to listen and bring together the elements needed to strike the right tone for the project, adapting to changes to get the job done. Observation and anticipation are two of the strongest skills developed throughout my career, allowing me to capture moments that only happen once. After finding my passion for storytelling and developing those skills in a 12 year career in local TV news, I continue to hone and add to them with nearly a decade of marketing. I am constantly seeking new knowledge to improve the way I tell stories. I work well on my own, but I excel as part of a team and revel in collaboration. My experience includes covering the highs of national championships to the lows of hurricane devastation and the hope that comes with rebuilding. Being a part of higher education allows me to have a small part in changing the lives of students; promoting the programs and offerings to bring them in and sharing their success stories is a fulfilling experience. I have a talent for learning new tech and unfamiliar systems quickly, and I have a knack for putting people at ease in front of the camera. For example, when I started at Lone Star College, I had to familiarize myself with the digital signage system as the new system administrator. I brought order to chaos and transformed an unreliable system into a an organized, user-friendly solution while training users across multiple locations. I am also an FAA Certified Remote Pilot, allowing for legal drone flights to capture aerial photography and cinematography. Let me help you tell your story and add value to your brand. Specialties: Storytelling, cinematography, lighting, linear and non-linear editing, interviewing people. Certifications: FAA Part 107 Remote Pilot (sUAS) Certificate; Digital Signage Certified Expert (DSCE); Digital Signage Content and Media Expert (DCME)
