Audiovisual producer
Stories are one of the building blocks of human communication, a universal language that resonates across cultures. My goal is to create stories that leave a mark and transport the audience to a place only their minds can build. Stories, that make people a little richer either by knowledge, affect, or understanding of the world.
Image, video, text, audio, layout, websites - I can do them all. I enjoy working with different mediums, and I happen to be very tech-savvy which helps me to learn new software quickly. For me, the production process is always a welcome creative challenge: what do we want to tell, to whom, and through what means? A good production team is a collection of different talents, and a good producer can bring those talents together to create new meanings.

I’ve written, directed, filmed, edited and produced both fictional short films, tv news segments, and a short documentary. I know, how to write a storyboard (and how to modity it on the fly), time the production process, edit, and always check the damn mics. I find the most important thing as a producer to be the ability to understand the production process and what each professional brings to the whole. And by doing the whole process first by myself, helps me to understand and appreciate the professionalism needed.
Take a look at one of my student productions: Short Film "Procastination". Sini Tuohimaa (writing, directing, filming, editing), Fanni Aalto & Sanni Saarelainen (acting).

I’ve written news articles like “Students fighting for space on campus" (2019, Keskisuomalainen) and other journalistic texts such as profile stories, reportages, and opinion pieces. I’ve also done marketing work in the form of blog posts like "Why study communication at JYU?" (2019, www.parku.fi), slogan and mission statement designs, as well as, service design aimed to market the expertise and services provided by Oulu University Hospital (2022, OYS.fi). My professional publications cover crisis and leadership communication (2021, www.viesti.fi).

I’ve done radio work during studies, at work and in my freetime. Over my studies, I did short news inserts and radio interviews, even some live radio. I have co-hosted a live radio show during spring 2021 for Vappuradio JKL. For OYS, I produced, wrote and hosted a podcast episode about the OYS 2030 renewal programme and designed a whole podcast series for the hospital.
