Hi, my name is
Macklin!
I love filmmaking.
I am a production coordinator, screenwriter, and filmmaker based in Chicago, IL. When I’m not working on set or writing another pilot, I’m probably posting my next review on Medium or TikTok.
I attended Columbia College Chicago and graduated in 2022 with a degree in Television, focusing on directing and producing. During my time at Columbia I worked as a Producer for Freqout, the school’s version of SNL. In 2018 I received the Youth Producer of the Year award from Falmouth Community Television.
I picked up lighting after a friend was looking for a grip. Soon enough, I was asked on 3 more sets just to work on lighting!
From a short film set where I was a grip (far right).
Here’s me video editing. I don’t have a photo, because it’s pretty boring. So here’s a drawing.
Also gripping a short film, this time at Cinespace Studios in Chicago!
Truck It
Currently I am working as a line producer on a proof of concept pilot episode for a TV series called Truck It. We are currently in pre production as we prepare to shoot in late March.
Here’s some of the work I’ve done as a line producer:
