About Christopher Shipman
As a photojournalist with over 5 years of experience at WRAL, I specialize in live shots, general assignments, and operating advanced camera systems such as the Sony XDCAM for news and breaking stories. My skill set includes non-linear editing using EDIUS, conducting live shots with LiveU packs, and managing live operations with precision, including camera setup, lighting, and audio for remote broadcasts. Collaborating with the team, I have contributed to diverse news coverage across neighboring states and the region, utilizing tools like GO PRO Action cameras for dynamic storytelling. My commitment to delivering impactful visual news aligns with WRAL’s mission of high-quality journalism.
