Matchroom Boxing: Making The Day Count 

I was enlisted by Matchroom Boxing to produce, direct, and capture their "Making The Days Count" episode featuring the intense Mexican boxing showdown between Rocky Hernández and Rene Giroz. This episode was strategically crafted to hype the upcoming bout in Canada on February 28th and later premiered on Matchroom Boxing's YouTube channel. Filming took place in the vibrant city of Queretaro and at the historic Otomi Ceremonial Center, located 1.5 hours outside Mexico City. My responsibilities included directing the visual narrative, leading a bilingual team of five, and weaving a compelling story through the journalistic questions I posed. This project not only highlighted my skills in boxing storytelling and creative direction but also showcased my proficiency in Spanish, ensuring seamless communication and a dynamic presentation of the boxing narrative to captivate fans worldwide.
