About Me

About

Hi!

 

I'm Brianna Gallardo and I’m a film and video editor currently looking for opportunities in film or television post-production. I’m a graduating senior from Northwestern University where I studied Radio/Television/Film and Latinx Studies. My primary focus is video editing, but I enjoy color grading, sound editing, and motion graphics as well! I'm fascinated with the editing process, as I'm detail-oriented, make creative decisions, and am receptive to making constant revisions, all necessary for bringing a story to life. 

I’m driven by a desire to increase thoughtful representation for underrepresented groups in media, especially for Latinx stories and voices. My background deeply informs my voice as a creative storyteller, as a daughter of Mexican immigrants from a low-income household. I take inspiration from my background, and am proud to bring my perspective into new spaces.
