About me
Anna Mac is a Film and Screen Media with English graduate of University College Cork. Most recently well versed in social media and content creation across digital platforms, Anna has past experience in freelance photography, journalism, music composition and filmmaking.
During her college years, Anna got involved in the university’s magazine, which lead to a development of skills such as writing, editing, and becoming the magazine’s photographer. Her role as staff writer opened avenues and interests from reviewing the latest music and film content to interviewing artists, musicians, and bloggers. During this time she also landed the role of fashion editor and photographer, allowing her to delve into the fashion world through directing photoshoots and editing and overseeing each piece of content featured in the fashion section.
Anna has excellent experience regarding filmmaking, film production, film editing and scoring soundtracks which she began to do for her classmates’ short films. Anna received extensive training at third level education regarding the art of filmmaking which she developed further after college hours. She delved into the music and fashion world, creating music videos, promotion clips and short films in her spare time. Anna’s biggest objective when creating is to make the viewer feel something and portray certain moods, which is achieved through the correct soundtrack and aesthetically appealing images.
Music has always been a big part of Anna’s life, having trained in orchestral percussion and piano growing up. She was part of a three piece indie rock band during her teenage years, and is now one half of an electronic pop duo called LEWWAB which was founded when Anna moved to Brussels with her long time friend to begin a new chapter of her life. In Belgium, Anna worked with the European Parliament as a Social Media and Content Creation trainee for 6 months. This role involved developing images through graphic design, editing videos to publish online, producing content for Instagram, Twitter and Facebook as well as copywriting and proof reading content published online.
Anna is a hard working, reliable and creative individual with a broad skillset and passions for music, fashion, photography, journalism, content creation and videography.
