My name is David M. Cook II. I am a digital artist that specializes in video and photography. I graduated Duquesne University Magna Cum Laude in Pittsburgh, PA in 2013. I earned a Bachelors Degree in Digital Media Art and Media Management and Production. Through my years at University I completed several courses that concentrated on the fundamentals of design as they pertain to video and photography. I developed the appropriate skills to operate both DSLR and Video Cameras while utilizing software to later edit the raw footage or photos.  

I am proficient with the Adobe Creative Suite. I can utilize programs such as Premier, Photoshop, Lightroom, After Effects and Bridge. I am familiar with non linear editing workflow and I am adaptable to new methods and ways of working. In addition to the technical skills that I have developed through school, I have developed leadership and communication skills through my work experiences. I am a DJ, MC, photographer and video editor for All Pro USA. This position has helped build my public speaking and communication skills as well as my technical skills. In addition I have held a leadership position at a Chick-Fil-A restaurant. This has helped build my organization and communication skills as well. The fast paced world of the Quick Service Restaurant Industry has also forced me to become a quick learner. Procedures and protocols can change on a daily basis, becoming adaptable was a must.
