Career at a crossroads

Aspiring video producer Daniel Khan is uncertain about his professional future with the COVID-19 pandemic shutting down music and sport events.

On the brink of graduating from Syracuse University, Danial Khan has lots of uncertainty about his future.

The cinematography and film/video production senior spent his time in college steadily building a portfolio of video work from live concert performances, promotional clips for bands and artists and sporting events. Also, Khan headed up production for University Union, the student-run concert and entertainment service.

But with COVID-19 protocols shutting down many live music and entertainment opportunities for the past six months, Khan shifted to recording and producing his own original music in his home to fill that creative void.

Update: In May 2021, Khan graduated from SU and by July was employed as a videographer for the Austin FC.
