University of Delaware — Russel Kogan

I received a Bachelor of Arts in Media Communication while minoring in political communication and interactive media.

I was also heavily involved in extracurriculars like the student TV network and the entrepreneurship center.

As the recipient of the Adi Patel Award for Public Affairs Reporting, I gave the student-speech at the convocation ceremony for communication majors.

I worked on these documentaries as part of class assignments.

I interned for the Town of Greenburgh, MAD Magazine, a documentary production company called Reconsider, and a consulting firm called Fassforward.

The student TV network consisted of 4 shows and had about 50 members. Crews scripted and produced biweekly shows that aired live on cable and online. In addition to producing content for the news and satire shows, I served as the group’s advertising director, operations manager, and president.
Some of my proudest accomplishments include shifting STN49’s distribution strategy from cable to digital, redesigning its website, teaching members about video production, and programming shows into the cable schedule.
As a media production assistant for the school’s entrepreneurship center, I produced and edited promotional and educational videos, took pictures at events, and made graphics.
