About Anna Belle Albitz
Filmmaker. Photographer. Storyteller.
I graduated from the University of Minnesota College of Liberal Arts with a Bachelor of Individualized Studies in Creative Writing, Studies in Cinema and Media Culture (Video Production), and Communication Studies.
In college I had the pleasure of being in the University of Minnesota marching band and athletic band as a cymbal player. As well as play for the Women's Club Ultimate Frisbee team, the Ninjas.
Other than my passions for storytelling, video, and photo, I enjoy adventuring! I've been to all 50 states, have traveled around Europe, and love hiking in the great outdoors.
I've always been interested in video since a very young age, reaching for the camcorder as soon as I could walk. Now, I'm always looking for ways to grow in my cinematography and editing.
Storytelling
As a shorter response to my long and sometimes confusing major is that I majored in "Storytelling", because it's the common link between my three concentrations.
DESIGN
From the clothing I wear, to the graphics I create for fun or for other organizations, I am constantly designing.
