The Anime Analysts Podcast was one of my first passion projects and the experience that solidified my goal of pursuing a career in video production. Entirely self-funded and independently produced, I created more than 60 episodes while managing every aspect of the production process—from planning and filming to audio engineering, video editing, publishing, and promotion. The project gave me hands-on experience with professional audio workflows, storytelling, content strategy, and long-form production, laying the foundation for the skills I use in my work today.
