From BGSU to the biggest night in Hollywood!🎬✨

Natalie Thompson ’14, a #BGSU Film Production graduate, just wrapped her 9th #Oscars as a Photo Producer for @Disney Entertainment Television—and what a night it was! @TheAcademy

As the #ABC Photo Lead for Oscars show day, Natalie oversaw a team of over 30 people, coordinating photographers capturing moments on the red carpet, backstage, in the press room and live on stage. She also produced the official gallery shoot with the host, Conan O’Brien, and executed marketing and publicity creative for editorial, social and advertising use.

Reflecting on her time at BGSU, Natalie credits the @BGTheatreFilm program, its professors and her part time job in the film lab for honing her skills as a producer, building her creativity and preparing her for the fast-paced world of entertainment. “My time at BGSU nurtured my creativity and storytelling ability and provided me with invaluable knowledge of the inner workings of a production set, all of which I’ve been able to apply to the creative, business and managerial aspects of my current role.”

Swipe through to see highlights from Natalie’s Oscars experience, including behind-the-scenes moments and some of her favorite shots from the night!
