Katie Pope
Production Editor
I graduated from Bethel University in 2018 with a degree in media production and am now working full-time as a videographer in the Twin Cities. I primarily produce non-profit and brand promo videos. I also work regularly as an editor for a production company
called Uptop Films, where we create short films, mini documentaries, and commercial work. The local filmmaking community is incredibly kind and supportive, and my favorite aspect of my job is capturing stories of people who are actively improving their communities and helping others.

Alyssa Teh
Videographer
Alyssa is a 2020 Independent Film graduate that served as president of the Communication Studies honor society, produced videos for marketing and communications, and held down the fort at a department studio TA.
She is an aspiring filmmaker with interests in DP-ing, editing, and directing. While she’s based in Minneapolis, she’s had the chance to study film in Los Angeles for a semester. That experience prompted her to write and direct her first short film. She has had the chance to screen her films at local film festivals. Although the film industry can be scary and unpredictable, Alyssa is reminded of the words of Ben Enke, a fellow Minneapolis cinematographer, "Pain is temporary. Film is forever.” Her mindset is, “keep making things, and never stop no matter who tells you to!”
