My name is Marina Escalas…
I am currently pursuing my Master of Marketing at Vanderbilt University’s Owen Graduate School of Management while freelancing as a video editor and graphic designer through Marina Escalas Graphics, LLC. Previously, I worked with Music Corporation of America (formerly Universal Music Group Nashville) as a Digital Content Specialist, where I administered in-house creative needs for the digital marketing team supporting over 40 frontline artists by creating animated assets across diverse platforms (from social media to 40’ billboards). As an expert in editing and delivering short-form and medium-form videos for social media and streaming platforms, the content I produced while at MCA garnered over 25,000,000 views. Prior to working at MCA, I was a Production Coordinator at Sound Off Productions, live streaming events such as Lollapalooza, Bonnaroo, and Austin City Limits. I graduated in 2022 from Indiana University with a degree in Film, Television, and Digital Production, specializing in Editing and Postproduction. While in college, I worked as a Content Intern at Circle Media, where I cut and curated content for linear broadcast networks, AVOD channels, and social media platforms. I was raised in Nashville, Tennessee, but I am a citizen of both Spain and the United States. My career goals are to work in entertainment, advertising, or sports industries as production coordinator, associate director, postproduction editor, or content creator.
