Sloane D.
Writer, Editor, and Filmmaker
I am a full-time writer and filmmaker with a diversity of experience in creative, nonprofit, and corporate spaces. Coupling a strong administrative background with creative expertise, I pride myself on a dedicated and flexible working approach suitable for a variety of tasks: my Upwork experience includes translation, transcription, captioning/video editing, copywriting/copyediting, data annotation, and creative development. Outside of Upwork, my professional experience has seen me founding a nonprofit of my own (Anthropocine), completing several film projects from start to finish, and developing invaluable skills in research, storytelling, and administration in the process. I treasure every opportunity to assist on a new project, and love to prioritize your needs above all else. I pride myself on my adaptability, diligence, and dedication to honoring your vision. Let me know what your project needs, and I will be happy to let you know how I can help! Technical highlights: - Broad portfolio of published writing, including personal essays, arts criticism, academic essays, database population, and journalistic writing for Film Matters, Bright Lights, The Smart Set, and Climate of Denial - Proficient editing and color-grading in DaVinci Resolve - Bilingual, with native fluency in Russian and English - Extensive proofreading experience, with understanding of linguistic conventions for academic, corporate, and creative applications - BA from Wesleyan in Film Studies, Economics, and Environmental Studies
