    As a one-man-band videographer/editor at Joel Ruby Studios, I collaborate with digital marketing teams to record, edit, and distribute social video for a multitude of clients. I work closely with companies from all walks of life to identify their marketing needs, and execute video projects to drive customer engagement. I also identify video workflow and production techniques to distinguish video products from anything else on social media. I have a Bachelor of Arts in New Media and Communications Technology from The Ohio State University, where I discovered my passion for filmmaking, photography, and new media art. I started my own video production business, Joel Ruby Studios, in 2017, and specialized in outdoor adventure filmmaking for three years, working with The Orvis Company in Vermont. I moved back to Chicago in 2020 to expand my business to include music videos, short films, documentaries, and hybrids thereof. I have award-winning skills in video editing, video production, and videography, and I hold a UAS Part 107 Drone Certification. I am always eager to learn new technologies and techniques, and create digital media that inspires, teaches, and entertains.

    I am an award-winning filmmaker, and I have an M.F.A. in Screenwriting from DePaul University. I specialize in script development, story breaking, character development, editing prose and scripts, and researching projects. I love helping my clients develop their stories and find their voice within their screenplays and novels. I also have a passion for properly formatting screenplays and proofreading them. I wrote and produced a short film and web series pilot in Chicago, IL. I crowdfunded for each of those projects, and my short film went on to win Best LGBTQ+ Film at the Women's Comedy Film Festival in Chicago - presented by Cinema Life. To date, I have helped filmmakers raise over $27,000 for their web series, films, and more. My eBook on crowdfunding for filmmakers called "From Logline to Launch" is available NOW on Amazon! I am currently working on my second memoir. In addition to screenwriting and crowdfunding, my expertise also lies in ghostwriting, drafting emails, and developing web content. When I'm not writing or helping creatives with their projects, I play tennis, dream about dogs, bake and travel to new places. Let's connect!
