About the Contributors
Kaitlyn MacLennan, Video Producer and Editor
Kaitlyn MacLennan is a competitive and hardworking junior at Jesuit High School excited about furthering her knowledge in media production. Last year Kaitlyn took Fundamentals of Media and learned the basics of the software. Kaitlyn excelled in filming and editing videos last year and hopes to continue producing more newsworthy projects. Some of the projects Kaitlyn partook in were multiple Mic’d Up videos, a Taco Truck Review, and many other special projects.
Growing up in the Bay Area in California, Kaitlyn saw different types of media design and it really drew her eye. She is hoping to bring a positive and fun voice to her work and hoping it helps her in the long run. Her hopes from this class is to get into a good college that possibly has a J school so she can pursue her hopes of getting into media. In addition to media production, Kaitlyn enjoys soccer, skiing, baking, hanging out with friends, and playing other sports. Most of the time if you don’t see Kaitlyn working on the back side of the cameras she will be on the field playing for the varsity soccer team for Jesuit. Because of Kaitlyn’s big love for sports she is highly interested in participating with JCTV and doing sports videos.
Lauren Butorac, Video Producer and Editor
Lauren Butorac is a junior in the class of 2025 at Jesuit High School. Returning from fundamentals of media production, Lauren hopes to take what she learned last year and apply it to produce even better things this year. Post high school she hopes to take these skills learned in media production to go beyond Jesuit and potentially go to a J School to continue in journalism or other forms of media. With her parents both being civil engineers, Lauren hopes to take a different path and go into something more creative like marketing or broadcasting. She is highly interested in writing topics on sports, world issues, and economical and political news. Lauren, being a part of the women's soccer team at Jesuit, hopes to write specifically about Jesuit sports and clubs to inform the Jesuit community about competitions, club meetings and much more. Lauren is very excited to participate in interviews as another source, to make her articles more in depth and get first hand experience on what she is writing. As well Lauren hopes to take her skills from fundamentals of media to create more mic’d ups and highlight reels. Lauren’s passion for sports comes from her competitive nature and love for sports, specifically soccer. She plays on Jesuit’s Varsity Soccer team as well as Northwest Elite’s ECNL team.
