Virtual Senior Showcase Videography | Shenandoah University Musical Theatre

Every year, I have the privilege of working on one of my favorite recurring projects—the Shenandoah Conservatory Senior Musical Theatre Showcase. This year marks the fourth consecutive virtual production, and I couldn't be prouder to support such a talented class of emerging performers.

The Class of 2025 brought exceptional energy to the shoot. As a lifelong musical theatre fan myself, this project always hits close to home. But more importantly, these seniors aren’t just putting on a performance—they’re launching their professional careers. And the stakes are high: in recent years, every single student in this showcase has secured agency representation after its release.

Capturing Performances That Launch Careers

We spent two fast-paced, rewarding days on Shenandoah University’s campus, capturing each student’s solo performance with detail and care. I collaborated with a seasoned team, including Wayne Romeo of Wayne’s Room Studios on audio engineering and a rotating crew of lighting techs who handled scenic lighting while I focused on performance lighting and cinematic camera work.

This wasn’t just about filming a show—it was about elevating every moment on screen to match each performer's talent and professional potential.

What Sets This Showcase Apart

Filming is only half the battle. The real value lies in what happens after the shoot:

• Individual Performance Reels
  Each student receives a polished, standalone clip optimized for casting submissions, talent agency outreach, and personal websites.

• Industry-Level Post-Production
  We apply precise audio syncing, lighting correction, and cinematic color grading to ensure every detail meets professional expectations.

• Multi-Platform Ready Deliverables
  Files are delivered in formats tailored for YouTube, Vimeo, and direct submissions—ready to make an immediate impact.

Celebrating at the Alamo Drafthouse

Each year, the final product is premiered at The Alamo Drafthouse in Winchester, VA—a true red carpet moment for the class and their families. Though I had to miss this year’s premiere (a whirlwind of conferences, out-of-town shoots—and yes, I got married), I’m so glad to hear how beautifully everything came together. That’s what makes the long hours and tight turnarounds absolutely worth it.
